VE no fun in cold :(
I just got back from college in NC, and the ve just spins through 1st and 2nd. Makes me realize how annoying it would be to own a turbo and not get any traction anywhere.....Sometimes I hate snow but a week long ski trip should make up for it?

Anyone else enjoying the cold?

I'm in FL, the coldest day just adds to my power band


also get some good tires and LSD, you shouldn't ever have traction problems N/A

There is plenty of snow here and I agree with marc, I never get stuck with LSD and snow tires. My altima was the same way! As long as you keep low RPM you won't spin too much.

I have both lsd and snow tires. I'm just talking about on dry pavement .

I don't know why but the Sentra doesn't seem to be as good as my old geo prizm in the snow. I wonder if it was because the prizm had studded snows? Dunno...

Its not great, or terrible, but I can get myself around.

Man it's been like 7+ years since i've been in snow and i have to say i don't miss an inch of it. I live in FL now and the only thing i have to worry about is tourist and rain, especially when the two are combined. thats when i stay inside and play some video games or BBQ on the back porch.

Cold air only adds power for me too in socal. If it's snowing you shouldn't be driving fast anyways. take it easy in that stuff and don't crash your pride and joy.

Ha don't worry, if i crash i will kill myself out of sadness What I originally meant was when the roads are clear, with just cold weather it is pooy. Let alone with snow! That is just out of the question for anything above %20 throttle I Have driven in the snow for 4 years now and while I do not claim to be skilled in any sense, I have managed to keep a clean record by being extremely cautiousl Thanks for the concern guys, I will watch my self don't worry .

Cold? I'm about to go for a swim. My family has come from NY, CT, and WI, they're all snowed in. They get here, and they want to hang out by the pool. I'm wearing shorts and blasting as much A/C as I can.

I got green dye all over my shoes trying to recharge my A/C in the Infiniti. *F* Winter.

Do you have a video? I want to hear the difference between your 3" piping and my 2.5", I also have the ws2.


I am going to New Mexico the day after Christmas, hopefully I will enjoy the cold!
