Lumina UT Vs 200 Sti (Highway)

Post by Pinkfluffybunnys »

Had a fun run this morning against a Lumina UT (New Shape).

Climbing on the highway, I get cut off by some guy in a A4 1.8t and he cuts me off again as I try to move over to the fast lane to get around him, So I gear back and stick on him as suspected he tried to run but couldn’t get away so by the time he puts his indicator on to move over I look in my rear view mirror and there is the Lumina UT,( I think he wanted to join in the fun… )

I’m in 4th gear just in lift so as I clear the Audi , I move over to the middle lane and put foot the Lumina hearing my exhaust note change does the same.

Through the whole of 4th the Lumina UT was at my boot , then the Lumina UT realized that I wasn’t an easy target and ducks in behind me , I reach the end of 4th at 8200 rpm , move onto 5th the gap to my surprise opened a little on the shift then stayed the same after a few seconds I came to my sense’s and looked at my speedo.

It was the fastest I have been in the Sentra to date , so backed off and let the Lumina UT Pass, Gave a flash but go nothing back you could hear the Lumina gunning it on the highway for some time so I don’t think it had a stock exhaust

I had a run against a UTE with my S2K.

He had after market exhaust, branch, cams, chip and larger throttle body.

Off the line I bogged, he had loads of wheelspin, by the time I got into powerband he had traction and we were dead even. Second gear I pull forward half a car, third gear another half a car, forth he stuck to me like glue. Tapped off end of fourth.

It goes well for pretty much stock S2k, just has exhuast and induction done.

Will test it on the track on Saturday
