i have a 07 pathfinder that is stock 4.0L v6 and my friend and a grandprix gt 3.8L v6 with couple of mods on his and he says he can beat me on a race. what do u guys think who will win?

look up the HP differences, I have faith in the pathy. i beat a 97 integra doing 0-120. I was 7 car lengths ahead.

First of all no you didn't and 2nd of all you're right, it's all about HP. There aren't any other variables that determine acceleration and speed.

lol a pathfinder is something you don't race in.

HP... and weight. Pathy probably has an extra 800 - 1000 lbs on the Grand Prix.

Are you an auto or manual? Is the GP? Another big difference. If you're both autos I'd say that the GP has the advantage in that category; the Pathy's auto transmission is built for towing, not racing.

I say bring him to Canada and put it in 4x4, he'll be stuck spinning his tires on ice while you're flying.

If your Pathfinder had the 5.6 V8 i would say you could give him a good run, but owning the 4.0 myself ehhh, i would put my money on the Pontiac.

No I think that dude is right the GP will beat you probably same power lighter and lower. But I think this Nissan Patrol would s*** all over any GP I've ever seen.

Too bad we didn't get the RB30 or the TB48 in the U.S. market still gotta love Nissan v6s though.

Woa, I have to disagree with you there Billy. There are many other factors, (and I think you probably know that.)Weight being the other big one.Plus things like transmission, engine power band, and where does it reach it's maximum horsepower, etc. Depends too on how long the race is. Eight of a mile, quarter mile, San Francisco to New York? (just kidding on that last one).Given the few facts we have, I'd bet on the Pontiac on this one.Cheers.

I was saying that sarcastically. So if we all use Nala's theory of speed my 47' boat with twin 330HP diesel engines will spank my 26' Semi V with a 1968 Chrysler 440 outputting 550HP. And this kid wants to go to engineering school?
