I strongly doubt you would smoke ANY 240s, besides automatics. remember, 240's are sports cars, and altimas are kid carriers...

that's true. just like maximas. there's no way a giant family sedan can beat a true sports car.

well..i know i wouldnt be able to beat it..i just wanted to see the HP figures of some of you guys. but trust me..just 2-3 more things to my car..and i could beat a stock 240. i feel so bad for my altima..its a "danny devito" compared to a 240 as an "arnold schwarzeneger". if you guys know what i mean.

Hahaha, I get ya ZKrazy......."as soon as I looked at you I thought I was looking into a mirror!!" LOL I haven't dynoed my car yet. I wanted to, but I want to go turbo this spring/summer, and planned on doing it then, ya know to tune the whole setup. But it would make for a nice comparison right! Maybe I'll do that then. If I do I'll post it for ya.

riiiiiight........
news flash man....
the alty is a lil' bit heavier, n only has like 5hp less than the the 240's KA....
that can easily be overcome wit basic bolt on's.....
it was sometime a few weeks ago, a 240 was jettin' down the highway, i match him, he tries to accelerate..
then looks like WTF??
like he's astonished that we're neck n neck...
dumbass....

No I haven't, although I've been considering it for awhile now. Right now the turbo fairies are dancing in my head.....lol, so removing my fan has taken a back seat. Why do you ask?

Only when I'm working really. I haven't seen that 240 yet though. It sounds pretty sweet though. It sux cause I'll be driving(I'm a truck driver) and spot a 240 here or there, and there ain't no way in hell I'm gonna catch up to these guys. Where I have seen some, its mostly been on Nesconset Highway. I saw one white one, with an exhaust an body kit w/ some black rims. I also saw a black one with exhaust and kit as well. They were both S14's too, which surprised me. Being that S14's are fairly rare. Which part of the island you from?

my idea of a 240 is SR equipped. if not, the KA has to be turbo. the stock KA sucks
