He said hell no my car is better so we raced and I whooped his ass... more than once... even from down low where the spec V has its "advantage". Of corse he goes on to say that his car is not a prime example of a N/A spec V soooo...
Im looking for a "prime example" of a all motor spec V to race a all motor B14.
Anyone wanna step up and prove me wrong???
I'll do it.. i got i/h/m/e/safc

i'm a bsr and cams short of being fully bolted.

we got a meet in st. pete tonight at steak n shake on park st. & tyrone blvd. you can come there if you want.. tell your b15 friend to come too.. a lot of us b15's go out there.. plus if jeremy shows up his is prolly a better example than mine.

Then why is Mike Kojima sporting a b14 (the dog car as pictured in modified last month) in the NASA cup vs the 2 or 3 b13's he owns?

because the b14 has capability when modded to handle far better than the b13 can.

dude. please pick a point and stick with it.
so far you have said that each independant chassis is the best.

mike kojima is probably running a b14 because he had an extra one laying around.
and has already had 234234231 b13's.
and who cares anyway.

simply put. b13 with coilovers will be better than a b14/15 with the same coilovers. due to the crappy solid rear axle.
and just a hunch, im sure kojima has put just a little more engineering and knowledge into his car than most.

Piece of shit? Theyve handled pretty much everything throw at them. Dont the older trannies have to be upgraded once power grows into the 300hp range?

gearing wise, it sucks. it may be strong, but then again, there are maybe 2 QR powered cars in the country pushing more than 300whp. But the gearing sucks. 1st and 2nd are utterly useless at 250+whp. Too short.

But you can't really say it's been terribly reliable. The 2002s had horrible problems, and even 03s, 04s, and 05s have been having issues.

What's the point of having a strong transmission if you have a powerplant that cannot exploit that ....

I'd pick the B13 over the rest just due to the fact that it comes with a highport SR already, it's more easily modifiable , and it doesn't have that hunchback looking rear end (b14). I'd take either the b14 or b13 over the b15 anyday, i wouldn't mind having a b15 with the roller rocker SR in it though. I don't care much for the other B chassis cars. To me the QR powerplant has been extremly dissapionting, and very unlike nissan.
