hey those cars have a lot of torque and they do high 15's so................its nothing to be embarrassed about. Especially since he was slightly modded. I believe that you would have owned him with just better driving.

How many miles are on your car?

One of my friends also has a '95 240SX SE that's slightly modded. Sitting in it all the time, I wouldn't be surprised that he would beat me in an EP. That KA24DE is truck-derived and has nice torque so that thing pulls...

I used to have a '91 240SX Fastback with I/E and I would have to say that my SI has a better top end then my 240. The engines on those cars are based on the pick up truck block and dont like be raced. My car loved low end revving but wasnt so smooth about anything over 5k. Off the line, I could usually pull ahead on most cars but they would always catch up around 3rd gear. Our Si's also way about 300lbs lighter.

You mentioned that you were completely stock. I have an SRI and it definetly makes a difference. I would recommend some sort of intake fo sho!:p

dont let it bother you. if you just put an intake on your car you would have won for sure;)
