hey guys i have a 99 Infiniti I30 auto and was wondering if most mods made for Maximas will fit my car.....also i wanna start doin some things to my engine to make it faster and want suggestions...thx

MaxedOut97SE

Most any mod will work, the I30 is the same car. It is basically a Maxima with an Infiniti logo on the grille. (that's not a bad thing at all)

so wut should i start with???

start with a cold air intake by Place Racing but if u don't have enough $$ then buy a JWT or Stillen intake or else u can get a FSTB

krngimp

how much $$ am i looking at here and how much power do i get out of it?

Llfe

for CAI from Place Racing = $220

Dragon Intake = i'm not sure...goto their website
( www.dragonintake.com ) i think

JWT = like $120

Stillen = like $180

Cheap Set-up = $55-60 depends

well...there has been talk that they all produce same HP like around 5-8 but i went ahead with the cheap set-up...and then bought the CAI from Place Racing which arrived today...oh yea...the cheap set-up is exactly like the stillen and jwt set-up...but i don't think the cone is super fat as them but pretty big

krngimp

do they make grills for I30? i saw a crazy one on a I30 on sprewell racing

How much $ are you willing to spend on your car? I think that's just a stock I30 grill that's been blacked out.

krngimp

i wanna spend like 1000 at most..wuts the maximum i can get out of 1000

krngimp

thts a nice infiniti man.....and i want white gauges....where can i get em and how much are they??

I30CeFiRo

Thanks dude. Do you want just white gauges or the indiglo gauges? The indiglo gauges are white during the day and indiglo during the night. I have those on my car and they were $90 for the digital ones. Look at my car's homepage for pics

krngimp

are u talking about performance chips?

Sonic

I believe that Maxima/I30 ECUs have to be reprogrammed, no plug in chip. Check www.maximadriver.com in the mods section on who does this.

krngimp

yea....wut are my options as in how many different types and how much $ for how much power gains??? thx alot guys i dont really kno sh*t hehe

for the chip or the intake?

krngimp

hmmm for both...plus exhaust

Llfe

iTrader: (5)

ummm the chip is really expensive...i would rather do y-pipe and CAI instead of the chip...which i did...but if u want go ahead...ask cheston more about the chip as far as exhausts, do u want brand name or non-brand name...Stillen, Greddy, and HKS currently make cat-back systems for the Maxima/i30 but just goto a muffler shop, they will be cheaper hopefully...i think the name brands run around 400-500...my muffler shop wants 300 for exhaust and b-pipe.

also do u want loud or quiet?

krngimp

hmmmmm wuts better? i dont want ne thing illegal....loud is good but quiet is no problem too

Llfe

iTrader: (5)

everything is pretty much illegal

illegal:
CAI
Y-pipe
nitrous

legal:
the Stillen/JWT intake

it also depends where u live...like in california...i'm not gonna pass the smog test with my y-pipe in...i think

supercharger is legal in kali...but very expensive
actually supercharger is at a pretty good price i think it's like $50-60 per 1hp. i think it gives u like 80 hp...but the ECU chip...i'm not sure...ask cheston
