Titains Chances

So, my buddy just got a 05 Nissan Titian with 106k on it, its a quad cab. Last night he was talking to my roommate(he has a 99 5.3 with intake and exhaust) about how bad he would eat any of our lunches in a race. My truck runs a 12.72 in 1000 foot. 5.3 90k, Only mod I have for the current time is a airrade intake and he has a intake as well(which i installed and FYI don't do it if any titian owner ask you to do it b/c you have to take the driver side tire off and inner fender out). What are my chances b4 i talk the gmc up to much?

i wouldnt talk too much crap unless you have 3.73's or 4.10's. other than that, i think he'll take ya, although you do have a weight advantage, so it could be close. those titans are very torquey and get off the line pretty quick.

stock 3:42 but at the track i don't spin I hook up and go. on the street it's a different story and from what i hear 3:42's to 3:73's isn't much difference, it's just like a tooth reduction off of the pinion or ring one

Don't worry about it--go out and hand that Nissan his ass. I am sure you will outrun him. If not--so what--go get some more mods so you CAN whoop his ass.

yeah i'm one of those ppl that if i can't do it and i get beat, I will fix and spend till I do that's why i sold my last truck. the black one here it had the 4.8 in it with every bolt on know to man plus a custom tune and it got out ran by my buddy all that money down the drain. oh well can't take it with you but I would still like to have some while i'm here...

itll be close with you being so light. but the gearing on the gmc might hurt a bit

I have another friend who has a 4x4 l titian and he runs 13.3's i don't know how much different that the 4x4 and the 2wd will be

damn 13.3. what all does he have done to it?

that's 1000 foot my bad..lol

I know there is a titan arround here that runs consistant low 15's with just intake and exhasut I think. you with only a intake wil be running high 15's. You should get him in the 60 ft, but he will run you down... get a tune and you will hold him off at about 1/2-1 full length. get gears and headers with a good set of tires and you will walk all over him. IMHO.

on the gears will i be wasting my money buying 3:73's since i have 3:42's or should i go to the 4:10's

I personally am going to put in 3.90's... good median between the 3.73's and the 4.10's depends on your goals... if your going turbo, get lower gears... if going all motor get higher gears.

a 100 shot will shut him up

100 shot and 3.90s, and you should slap him easy

Dude, its whatever. Just get out there and wax that dude...shut him up for a while. You will take him...an 05 CCSB Titan is a heavy SOB. You have a RCSB 5.3--you can take him. Stop talking about it and go do it. You never know your place until you get out there and do it. Once you run him, let us know the outcome and we will go from there...

Not sure what intake that titan has but I've never seen anyone have to remove anything other then the stock airbox and inlet tube. And I'm currently on my 2nd titan. I say line em up at the track and see what happens. You'll get him everytime on 60' since no stock ecu titan gets WOT until 38mph and we all have an open diff unless he's 4x4 then he has an electronic locking diff.

dude just go race him your gonna outrun him and if he starts around you just ram him hhahahahah.
