stock GSR vs the world... who'd win??
my buddys got a 98' stock auto trans. Maxima, i have a 95 stock 5spd GSR(only had it 2weeks, haven't started upgrades- NEED $$).... i haven't raced him yet, but its been in the back of my mind to do so... who do u think would win?
Another friend has a 93 Probe GT (v6) in stick shift, shes got some animosity towards imports so i think i should race her too. i'm all about racing i think... do u guys think i can beat her as well?? i'm a competent driver, and ive become quite comfortable launching my little white rocket, but how do GSRs (on average) compare to the speed (quickness) of other cars with larger engines? cuz i think i can beat everyone
so although i want to race alot, i'm not abusive to my baby, i rarely kick it into vtec. i don't race around town revvin to the redline at every stop light. in fact i like to keep a low profile sleeper attitude and look. i'm just excited i have a fast car now
besides clickin thru gears at 7,5k or so burns alot of gas it seems... is that normal??

I remeber reading a comparison of probe gt's vs integra gsr's on car adn driver or something like that. Goto google.com - images - then type in probe and gsr - guaranteed the site will pop up. Its images of the article but its an article non the less. Showing GT was faster but gsr wins overall something like that. Just know this .... fords deteriorate much faster than hondas - i know for a fact - 2 fords and 2 honda/acuras under my belt. Mechanically fords are hard to keep in constant good condition. My gsr - stock with intake at the time beat Probe GT and GTZ wutever the hell that model is.

Maxima auto...you will beat him. Those things are not all that fast...unless you get the 5spd...then it would be close.
As for the Probe it has the same HP as the GSR but more TQ. It should take you off the line but once in third you should pull and get in front of her. But like Chemicalviper said...Fords suck...and chances are it is in bad shape anyway and would only hurt her in a race.
Where in CT are you?

you should have him.
then again, the only way to find out is TRY.
