What's the guys name in Orlando? 13.8 for NA that's real strong i'd like to meet him.

I've long been done with racing the max. Don't know if i'll get back into it. But did i understand correctly that someone has video of my at BMP?<--a black 4th gen.

To the thread starter check out www.maxima.org/forums -- www.vqpower.com These are great sites to learn a bunch of knowledge, but remember to take it with a grain of salt cause like on every board there is a lot of misinformation that newbs speak as actual fact. It is relatively easy without much money to get a VQ series Maxima in the 13's and we even have a few in the 11's. As for mine its a mid 12 car with more potential in it. There is growing aftermarket support for these cars and the prices are extremely good compared to the prices you find for cars that carry a much larger aftermarket following.

You can't go wrong with the bullet proof vq. With the 5th gen you will have the option of 3.0(222-225hp) or the 3.5(255hp). The fourth gens are rated at 190hp which is what i have. The 3rd gens are the only maxima's to use the vg and are a pain to modify for lack of support. The stock blocks of the 3.0 maxima-vq and the 3.0 300ztt-vg will support about the same numbers in output before you need to upgrade components, ie around 600hp.<--if i'm misguided on this someone with extensive 300ztt knowledge please correct me. You just have to know what your doing. Besides 350whp in a fwd is more than enough for the street.

If you want to bounce some ideas off me feel free. Although i like the 5th gen a lot, i think you would get more bang for your dollar with a nice fourth gen. It all depends on what you think you will ulitmately want to do with it.
