whoopy!
nismostanza:
Altimas are NOT slow... I'm faster than Integra GS/GS-R's in my SCCA STS car-class. I'm in second place in points, and I'm only trailing a Civic Si (with many many mods) by thousandths of seconds. I'm only running Ground Controls, Rims/Tires, and Stillen FTSB... other than that, I'm all stock with an Automatic to boot!
Maybe you're just not driving it properly.
But I'm still trading up for a 1997/1998 240SX... I'm getting tired of understeer.

pt, thats driver not the car...
It's AutoX.Godzildo said:PT, what kind of a league is that - dragging or autocross? And are you just an incredibly good driver or what??
I definitely think that I am an above-average driver, but I've never been paid to drive, nor have I ever taken any driving schools... so I don't really think I'm an expert driver.
Maybe a team owner who watches SCCA AutoX will notice me, beating up on Integras and Civic Si's with my daily-driver grocery-getter, and offer me a tryout for their driving team? I WISH!!!
Actually, I've moved on from AutoX to Track Days... more money, but you get much more track time... and you get more speed too.
I've offered to take some Dot Net people with me, so they can ride along, but no-one's ever take up my offer except my neighbor's kids. They have a blast, and their parents hate me for getting them hooked on racing and speed.

General Nissan Altima Discussion (1993-2001)Been awhile since I worked on this 93 Altima, last year while getting it unstuck in the snow I had to rev it high many times while going back and forth in driveway.

General Nissan Altima Discussion (1993-2001)Anyone know which fails first, the actuator assy-ascd (nissanpartsdeal # 18910) or the pump-vacuun ASCD (nissanpartsdeal #27084P)?

93 altima intermittently stalls while driving
General Nissan Altima Discussion (1993-2001)I have a 93 altima (standard) that I got from a friend. She told me when she had the car, it would occasionally stall while driving. She had it looked at a few times, but no reason for the stalling. Since I've had the car, it happened to me. Actually, it starts bucking first, I pull over, and...- 1

Water leaking into my trunk
General Nissan Altima Discussion (1993-2001)Alright, I have a small problem which is creating a swamp in my trunk. This is not good since I use my trunk all the time. I'm not sure where the leak is coming from, but I know there is a leak. My trunk carpet is all wet. Question? Where should I begin looking for this leak? Spoiler? Tail...- 22
