LMAO... you kidding me right???

Blue line - blubyu2k2 best dyno 2002 Automatic traps 101
Red line - SR20DEN best dyno 2002 6 speed traps 106

same motors just to give a comparision of what a strong stock IM VQ35DE Maximas curve looks like compared to his. He did all the work on his IM in house free of charge also.

Torque, on the other hand, is pretty nice, but that's just a consequence of having a larger 3.5L.
A 6 speed with I/H is only going to be like 235whp and alot less tq than that VQ. Noone on here has ran low 13's NA that I know of, not even guys with the 3.5L conversion.
That being said, thats a nice dyno. VQ35 = teh hotness. I'd trade my J32 for a VQ35 anyday of the week.

Umm, the CL-S 6spd with I/H makes more than ~230whp. I don't have any dynos handy for I/H specifically, but here's 6spdmanual's 6spd CL-S making 247whp (only 2 hp away from the Maxima, but again not even close on the torque)... He has Headers/Intake/B-Pipe/Pulleys:

This is with 6spdmanual's IMRC being broken too!!!
There's numbers there for a 3.5L S/C'ed CL-S Auto too ... Sounds like there were some problems but it was able to put down 244 ft-lbs of torque...
BTW- Here's a Comptech dyno of the CL-S 6spd with just an Icebox ... putting down 234whp.

S/C'ed CL-S's put down that much power if not more and run mid 13's.
Doesn't make sense to me.
allmotor ran a 13.5 @ 102 w/ his 6mt with the following mods -
intake
TB
headers
clutch/flywheel
slicks
if he had the unichip (to bump timing) and gutted interior, i'm sure he could have run a 13.2 or better.

Any well respected members want to come to Rockingham next friday we will be there you can inspect the car and report back here if you find anything fishy. Keith will be there and know this guy personally but you guys still have your disbeliefs. Its cool though its hard to believe myself. BTW his best on stock 17's is 13.5@106 with a 2.2 60'

His total in mods consist of:
Headers: $550
UDP: $175 (just the crank pulley no tthe whole set like the CL's)
HKS rear: $150
SAFC: $300
Total: $1175
Everything else performed was free and used stock parts. Once he gets some larger diameter slicks expect 12's easily all motor and at least mid 11's with his nitrous setup.

so the guy weighs 265#?
i need to get some 22" slicks. i could run high 12's right now w/ those.
i could also break my transmission even faster. :o

Now on to that seemingly incorrect trap. Was it backed up with another run within 10%?? The ET seems to be possible but the trap is way off with the information presented. On a car, with driver, that weighs in close to 3400lbs and has a CD above 0.30 would require upwards of 300 WHP to trap that. IMO, either the weight reduction was incorrectly calculated or the timing lights were generous that night.
Shall we break out the math and include gearing to show how it does not calculate??

Correct, but the numbers that dictate the trap are at the upper end of the rev band where you spend more time during the run. The difference in overall power between the two engines at shift point ranges are minimal considering the J32A2 has 500 more revs to play with. There is plenty of proof to correlate the values.

Also if anyone has access to any runviewer files from bolt on CL-S's I'd like to overlay them just to compare and see the differences. I know there has been plenty of dynos so there has to be some runviewer files floating around.

If the car is severly lightened and is running a wheel/tire combo which is also lighter and shorter (lowering the overall geraing) then it would be possible. But not with the numbers I was originally looking at. Any chance to get it on the scales?

WOW i didn't mean to start a war... ok first off i have seen this maxima first hand run 13.5@106, 13.4@106 (all motor on street tires) at the rock. i understand it is hard for everyone to believe but it did happen.... trust me guys i wouldn't have post about this if it wasn't a true story






Nice numbers.
