Hmmmmm, I think I might have a chance, slim, but a chance to take one in the 1/4.:confused:

They run low 14s. Motor trend tested one against a G8 GT and it got smoked. You'll need a good amount of mods in a NA Marauder to take one.

Not with the mods in your signature.

spray it :nos:

I have beaten quite a few! :D

So with his mods, what should be run in the quarter? Would it be close to the Maxima, low 14's?

I hate Rice in the morning.

A lot depends on how agressive his tune is. Mid 14's, prolly.

The car we just got it December, 2007 Infiniti G35, has the same engine as the Maxima but a bit more potent.....feels like it would whip my Marauder. Gonna take them both to the track to see what kind of numbers we get.

This is from Wiki on the Infiniti:

The updated VQ35HR (http://www.mercurymarauder.net/wiki/Nissan_VQ_engine#HR_series) is more powerful (306 hp (228 kW) at 6,800 rpm and 268 lb·ft (363 N·m) at 4,800 rpm), more fuel efficient, and more responsive than the previous VQ35DE (http://www.mercurymarauder.net/wiki/Nissan_VQ_engine). The "HR" stands for "High Revolution" or "High Response". A dual-path intake (two air cleaners, throttle bodies, etc.) lowers intake tract restriction by 18 percent and new equal-length exhaust manifolds lead into mufflers that are 25 percent freer flowing. The intake is said to benefit from a ram-air effect adding three horsepower at 60 mph. Electrically actuated variable valve timing (http://www.mercurymarauder.net/wiki/Variable_valve_timing) is new on the exhaust cams which broadens the torque curve. The new engine block maintains the same bore and stroke, but the connecting rods were lengthened and the block deck was raised by 8.4 mm to reduce piston side-loads. 80% of the internal components have been strengthened or redesigned to handle the increased 7,500 rpm red line, along with the use of larger crank bearings with main bearing caps reinforced by a rigid ladder-type main cap girdle. With an increase in compression ratio from 10.3:1 to 10.6:1 these changes add 26 more horsepower. Torque is down 2 pound-feet (2.7 N·m) from the old DE engine (268 vs. 270). The engine now sits 15 mm lower in the chassis for a lower center of gravity
