Hello All,
I just bought a Coupe and freakin love it. This is my first Nissan and so far couldn't be happier.
Has anyone had theirs out on a track? I'm definitely going to, but probably not until spring when they open back up around here.
My buddy who drives a Lexus IS300 keeps saying that he's going to tear me up in the 3.5l Coupe... I think it will be close.

If you're the better driver then you will be able to beat him, but if he makes perfect shifts then you will lose on a straight line , but don't give up hope, there's a 448hp turbo kit coming out in the beginning of next year! (2008)

Is350? He said 300. I'm sure he'll beat the 300 with ease
Re: On the Track (mcheddadi)
Is this 448 turbo kit comin out for the sedan also?

Re: On the Track (mcheddadi)
The 3.5 is 3205/man6spd, 3271/CVT for weight , 3020 is the 2.5 weight.If you compare a Lexus IS350 to a 3.5A/c the Lexus has the upperhand 306 HP with 277 Lb/torque and the big thing "RWD" it would win hands down. As for the Lexus IS300 they don't even make it anymore and it has a weak 215 HP, off the line it would lose, on a track hard to say RWD VS FWD it would come down to driver.

Welcome to NICO and congrats on the car!
Re: On the Track (generic808)
I really want to go to the track this summer but ive never been to one. I dont know how to even "go".Ive looked at all the tracks nearby but they seem like u have to rent the track.. The closest one to me wants 500$/hour, 2 hr min.. Thats ridiculous.
