Hey folks, I hope everyone had a good weekend....

So my best friend bought an 09 V6 Altima Coupe 6 speed manual and threw a cold air intake on it (everything else is stock) and is challenging me to a heads up race on the track this spring.

My performance mods include 4.10s w/ built rear, bassani catback, o/r H pipe, CAI, short throw (5 speed).

Do you guys think I'll take him heads up?

I hope you'll win it's a DAMN ALTIMA!!!lol. Seriously, i have no clue about these cars. What kind of power do they make?

Blow it and spray it...then don't tell him.

haha there was one at the track a few weeks back that I saw.
If your car runs faster then high 14's you should be fine.

I think they make 275 to the crank coming from the factory, but it pulls pretty hard!

Should be interesting,the same 3.5 engine is rated at 337 hp in the 350 Z & the G 37. My brother swears his 09 g37 is on par with his 99 Cobra, O/R Bassani and 4.10's. He traded the cobra after his Ist winter in Minneapolis Minn. The Altima has the 3.5 also (fwd). I have faith you'll pull him from a dig.

Please beat him...

Forgot to mention, the Altima has a
(fwd) crappy CVT tranny. Advetised hp ratings are around 20 less than the 370 Z and G37. U should'nt have a problem. Let us know how badly you spank that rice.

yeah but his friend bought the 6 speed version....I've test driven the CVT version and it's really smooth and brisk...but I think the Mustang still wins
