Black2003SS Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 http://www.modernracer.com/nissanaltima35se.html If he has a manual and you are stock, you will most likely be toast if it is an 02-present model. If he has an auto, you stand a better chance. Those times are for the 3.5L on that website. I would assume the 3.8 is more powerful in the same car.

Dylan06SS Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Stock they run mid 14's... so its a close race, but if you get him on the launch you should be able to beat him. EDIT: just saw you're on 24's... nevermind... your screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan06SS Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Tip 1: turn your caps lock off Tip 2: put your stock rims back on if you have them. Its hard to run a competitive race on 22's (I know this first hand) and even harder on 24's Tip 3: don't do it anywhere on the streets... take it to a track Tip 4: if you lose start saving up money for mods Tip 5: have fun... its just a race.

Black2003SS Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Tips in addition to Dylan... Put truck in Drive. Point down track. Stomp on pedal. Nothing else to do my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

04CHASE Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 if its a 02 it does not have a 3.8l it has a 3.5l engine and they are somewhat quick , definatly a good race for a stock ss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black2003SS Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 You could run out and order a bolt in zex nitrous kit. just run the 55hp shot and you will have him for sure. You pick one up for $500 on ebaymotors.com. But only do this if you know what you are doing. Better yet, sell those 24's and buy a radix...you would probably still have money left over too.
