I'm new 1993 Nissan Maxima GXE AUTO VG owner and I'm tired of watching Civics, Accords, Eclipses, Mustangs, Integras, etc.. think that they are bad ***.

As far as basic/cheap and most effective horsepower upgrades go.. what would be the order of line up. KEEP IN MIND, I'm LOOKING FOR REASONABLY PRICED upgrades to High end boost. Does Stillen, Nismo, or any other company have a performance chart which I can follow, different stages??


1st: Air Intake system (best brand for perfrmnce?)
2nd: Remove pre-cats and cats (add straight pipe)
3rd: Clean throttle body to gain lost power.
4th: ??
5th: ??
6th: ??
7th: ??
8th: ??


Hopefully this thread will be helpful for others as well.


Thank you everyone who reads and takes the time to reply.

P.S. Is the 3rd generation the model that can handle a 300zx TT motor dropped under the hood? I heard they have the same motor mounts, is that true?

In response to your ps a few people have put in the single turbo Z31 engine in.... its the one from 84-89.. Nobody has put in a twin turbo, yet.

Next I'd say to go with the Y-pipe. There are two main places you can go to get it, either www.warpspeedperformance.com or www.cattmanperformance.com. You can also look up the cold air intakes at these sites.

I figured if I just remove the pre-cats and the cats then it would be the same as adding a Y-pipe.

Me and you are in the same boat, and I have ypipe, intake, muffler and sprint/tokico suspension and I can beat civics and eclipses......GS and RS only....lol. And I did a best of 16.5 on the track but now the car runs 16.9's
