Our stock engine is not that great. Throw in a klde or ze, and then you will smoke him.

why would you ask people if you are going to win. Just do it, and have fun. By asking if you are going to win, you just make yourself look dumb and insecure.

Oh I love you type of people. Prolly running your mouth off to the guy, then you throw down money, and you come here and ask if you are going to win. If it was an older 240, with the single cam KA24DE you prolly could take him. But the newer DOHC KA's are pretty decent engines having quite a bit of tourque for a 4 banger. If you were worried you won't win, why did you bet money?

no its 2.4 , since 240 sx...get it? 3.0 will be V6, but 2.4 is only altima engine, who knows you might take him, theyre heavy and altima engine isnt fastest ive seen

I've seen a caravan take down a Celica GTS and a protege5 take down a RSX Type-S so I would say it's not impossible. Get some good tires, get a perfect take off and shifts and you have a chance. Specially if he thinks he's all cool. If he thinks that you have no chance and just sits and spins his tires for 5 seconds because he dumped the clutch. Go somewhere and practice your take off, you want very little wheel spin. If you get all nervous and take off at too high rev you will just spin your tires or have some awful car hopping which you can't make up for because you don't have enough HP/torque.
