1996 Nissan Maxima.....POS
 
So theres this 96 maxima on my street. driver thinks its hot ****. revs it everytime he goes down the street, and does about 90 in our neighborhood some nights. All I here is a loud WOOSH and a screaming engine, and hes gone(since we have a huge straightaway). He needs someone to tell him that it is nt that great. The thing is, he claims hes went 157 MPH on the highway. Can the car actually do that? What is the HP on those things?

paarman97maro 02-16-2006 11:23 AM

1. I suggest throwing a ball into the street when you hear him coming.

2. probably not. Most people exadurate sp?... especially not in that type of car.

scarfonee 02-16-2006 11:28 AM

lol. Great suggestion. He is jealous because I just got the camaro and his brother crashed his about a year ago.

archemedes 02-16-2006 12:38 PM

he went 157 off a cliff maybe

ryann 02-16-2006 01:43 PM

i'd do somethin about that. ppl are going to get seriously hurt. doin 90 in a neghiborhood?. sp? ... i think yr. exadurtaing a little. if not then do sometin about it.

Throw a cabbage patch kid in the street before he flys by.He will just see a quick glance since hes going so fast of a small child in the street. Then have him hit it. By the time he relizes what happened he will be far away due to him going so fast. Then you could swoop in and pick up the pices and hide. He might learn his lesson then and be haunted for the rest of his life from guilt. Then he might not ever fly by again?

if that Maxima is anything like my mom's 03 Altima...they're nothing to look down on. her car GETS UP AND GOES. it's got the same motor as the G35 and the 350Z, but slightly tuned down. very quick car

thats a good idea! Ive heard of people doing that kind of stuff with basketballs like paar said too. Try it, i guess its the only way to see.

archemedes 02-16-2006 02:24 PM

from edmunds "Under the hood is a twin-cam, aluminum 3.0-liter V6. It puts 190 horsepower to the ground through the front axle" under 200 hp is not going to do much in a car that was designed more for luxury the altima (if 3.5) is rated at 245hp

lmao that was one of the funniest things ever, and i don't know why

Home made spike strip. Or just do what I do in the summer. Speeders down my block with bunch of kids playing get a nice hose spray through the side window. My old neighbor hood we just drove some nails through a 2x4 into the ground and had a nice speed bump. That lasted a couple of days until it has destroyed. people who went over it slowed down around there from then on. No one ever saw it especially at night.:eek:

Mikerock 02-16-2006 06:32 PM

It depends on how big of a turbo he has in there thats making that whoooosh sound. but speeding through a neighborhood is never cool.

Bernotas05 02-16-2006 09:15 PM

Yea speeding is never cool, just call the cops or ignore his stupid *** dont pravoke him to act like more of a retart

MeenZ28 02-16-2006 09:52 PM

3 words - Paint ball gun.

69z-28 02-16-2006 10:15 PM

Adric 02-16-2006 10:33 PM

Bernotas05 02-16-2006 10:43 PM

archemedes 02-17-2006 12:04 AM

no just say he hit something, they go after him I bet there is damage to the car (at least there could be:D )

I have a 95 maxima along with my Z. It is a V6 with a 5 speed. I have smoked newer Mustangs with it. Never been able to beat a Camaro though. It is rated at 200 horses but I think it has more. It is currently up for sale. It has over 170,000 miles on it and still barks the tires in 3rd gear. The only mod that it has is a K&N filter. The speedo in mine goes to 155 and I have been about 150 in it. The rev limiter kicks in and shuts the engine down. If you take that out you probably get some more speed.

Sounds like it has been abused. jk

It is mainly my wife's car. When I drive it there is a little abuse going on. It still gets over 20 mpg in town and 30 on the highway. I still like the maxima but since I work for GM, really can't be driving it around a lot.
