I think it's an 88 or 90. The engine is totaly stock. It's a 4 cylinder. The car is slow. I raced him in my 93 S-10 blazer. I beat him in that. But that's a 6 banger so who knows.

Well, as much as I like Nissan, if it's an automatic and with a stock GA16 (1.6l engine) then you're on the safe side

Yeha unless he has a 2liter engine, those freakin Nissan NX2000 are faster then shit, those little things move

when I say faster then shit, I mean for a 2 liter nissan made in the early 90's.

The little GTi 1600 DOC is not a screamer by any stretch of the imagination. I would say your jetta would do quite well. That pulsar is more of a shopping trolly then a go car.

I think your car would be faster. If he can't slam a pedal move...no guide... a stick into it's place and get back on slammin' the gas he probably it's a 'cool fast driver.' lol Although some automatics are awesome, sporty drivers should atleast know how to work a manual trasmission.

There is no hope for him I think. I need to get my speedo fixed so I can tell how fast I'm goin. I think on Monday I'll race him. I have the day off work and I can find him then. The only problem is that I have a hose leak in my coolin system. I have the parts on a truck comin to my house within 8 days. I don't want to get the thing screamin before I reaplace that stuff. So maybe I won't. I think his engine is smaller than a 1.6. I think that the next time I see him I'll try to start shit and piss him off. Oh and I think I'll be able to out shift a pussy that afraid of driven a manual because it's too hard. Dub for life!!!

take a stopwach in your car and try timing it yourself.....but i think 17.8 is about right, your car might feel faster but you never know.
