I'm just stating that I beat a Northstar V8 equipped car on the way back to Ken's house in my 240SX one night....
The gap wasn't huge, but I definately pulled away from him...
And that's when I hit the speed governer...
After 125 (i'm guessing), I couldn't do anything else....This is all straight line, mind you... 89 S13 with a 97 S14 engine, ghetto *** intake, and 2.5 exhaust with a high-flow cat...
In the twisties, I would have destroyed it...

Ken:
Don't be too suprised if you see an FD out front tonight, I may be put in charge of holding onto Kayin's for a few hours or potentially till tomorrow morning...
Tow truck company doesn't wanna pick up the car from RP till after 7 (rush hour) and he's got plans tonight....

at 3967 lbs and 250 hp, the aurora has to push 15.8 lbs with each of it's horsepower...
at 2800 lbs and 155 hp, the 240 has to push 18.06 lbs with each of it's horsepower.
Barring other factors (I don't know how the aurora's transmission is geared), my money would still go on the aurora... it has a better power to weight ratio.
Brandon:
OK....

2684 lbs. /170hp = 15.79
15.87 compared to 15.79 = close race.
I'm not saying he would win... I'm just saying it would be close.

he's not running 170 hp, even with the upgrades... his engine stock is 155 hp, you can't get from 155 to 170 with strictly bolt-ons... you might get better throttle response and stuff like that, but there's no way he's pushing 170 in that car.

Depends on what gains you could get from intake, 2.5 exhaust, high-flow cat, and a bigger throttle body...

Some of those things can also reduce torque... making the car slower until it gets revved up.

But once its revved up its more torque than original, so therefore......your basis has been flawed! your computing skills have been found.................lacking! lol jk, you know alot more about cars than I do, however I bet brandon is around 170hp ><

actually torque usually falls after the peak, rarely does it stay the same...

as soon as you get back, it'll be time to megasquirt your car :-P I'm going to port the msns-extra code to the ms2, so we'll be able to control the IAC stepper motor on your 7mgte
