I have a 00'TL, Everything is fine on the car, im on my second tranny. My problem is that my car feels so slow. It doesn't feel sluggish or anything it just feels as if it only has like 150hp. When I do gun it, nothing happens for a couple of seconds then the acceleration kicks in. A stock nissan altima 4cyl 2.5L killed me!! WTF is wrong with my car?

 

the gas pedal is on the right.

 

hahahahaha

butt dynos are never accurate lol. get a tune up

 

Im hitting the right pedal ...

 

i was joking lol.

does it feel like that all the time or was it that one time?

 

All the time, it's smooth but it lacks power... When i floor it it takes time for the acceleration to kick in

 

Do you see any difference in your gas milage?

 

Thats right and the harder you push it the faster it goes.

 

how many miles do u have? maybe its time for a tune up like S1CK TypeS said.

 

are u pumping regular?

damn lost to an altima? i eat them all day long

 

u have a tl-p. get mods.

 

even a TL-p eat that altima all day long... i have both car at this moment...everytime i drive my TL i feel decent fast but when i start driving the altima after my TL.....well...
it feel like i should get out and walk to my TL again..... altima is not that slow tho...i remember i once beat a old maxima believe or not....... just get a tune up.

 

maybe the throttle line slipped and is loose now... try adjusting the tension on the gas pedal by messing with the throttle cable under the hood. i wouldn't be surprised if this is the problem, based on the symptoms you provided.

 

Could need a tune up. How many miles you got? Did you check the air filter mine was real dirty and it kind of hurt performance so I dropped in a K&N. The one thing that should really help is seafoam. Run a can each through intake, gas tank, and crank case. My car used to do that too, When I floored it, it took a second or two to take off. The seafoam helped that for sure.

 

could also be the timing. if it takes a while before it kicks in to accelerate, maybe your timing is off.

 

timings not off. The odds of that happening are very very very slim. And then he would be running into other noises. Our timing isnt adjustable. He needs to give BETTER symptoms and description. Miles, last tune up, fuel used, when did this start etc....

 

HAHAHAHA - Off topic, but like the Santa hat on Batman in your avatar!!!!!
