Im sure what you heard was referring to a 300z with a single turbo, but im going to assume that if it just "dropped" in alot of maxima's here would be rolling with turbo...

We're gonna have to hook up because I plan on blowing my 3rd tranny (auto) by going boost. He also have cefiro's like me. Do you know were he got the engine from?

It prolly won't have the gangsta lean. I'm waiting for Mtcookson to chime in about the motor mount locations. I think the rear bolts up but the front you have to move the turbo because of the radiator. I don't know if his mount's up directly though. I'm gonna pm him right now.

okay mistar here's the best option (and only!) for your gxe max (OMG NO SHEN, ITS A GXE!):

nothing. absofigginlutely nothing. keep your family sedan normal. your tranny will grenade, she'll creak and groan at the seams, and your defrosters will stop working.

hear me? YOUR DEFROSTERS WILL STOP WORKING!!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!
