TL vs 240sx on the highway

I was comming back from a family meeting last weekend and was cruising at around 80 on the highway when a 240sx passed by... I let it go at first but I caught up to him a few miles after that. As i was passing him, he started to accelerate slowly.... so i did the same... until we were both at WOT. I immediatly started pulling, and kept on doing so until i could barely tell the color of his car in my rearview mirror

We raced 2 more times after that and each time I would murder him! So when we're done I let him pass me and he gave me a .. very nice guy not some sore loser!

it made my day

ehh... 155hp 240sx vs a 225hp TL? hardly looks like a fair match to me, unless the 240 had the SR20DET motor in it then thatd be impressive cause the SR20 pushes around 250HP stock

240sx with the factory engine is a turtle.

Drop in an SR and you will haul ass. My friend's S13 put down 380 rwhp and ate Z06's for lunch. I've put so much wrench time into that car... I miss it dearly. Hopefully I'll have one of my own someday.
