The other day I passed a maxima parked over in a parking lot, here in New Zealand. What caught my eye was the hood that was on it. You typically see these type hoods on Mustangs but I was lost as to where or how they had such a hood on a 4th gen. Has anyone ever heard or seen this ?

example:

 

nope but that stang looks sick

 

2000 Cobra R mustang.

 

The guy was probably watching too much PMR.

 

whoa, what a weird hood to put on a maxima, like he couldnt get a cf one or something. Yeek i bet the guy custom made it for big bux too, poor ol soul

 

Ye, something like that had to be custom made.....but why? Could it also have been from another car and had body modifications done to make it fit??

 

2000 SVT Cobra R = One of the hottest cars ever made.

 

who would win in 1/4 with stock setup?
4th Gen Maxima vs. 1987-1993 Mustang w/5.0

 

5.0 i believe

 

and what does this have to do with the thread?

 

it owpuld be close there was a 5.0 auto running like 16 flat stock last time i went to race

 

he couldnt drive then or it was worn out

 

What, something like a cowl induction hood?
If it was a mild cowl induction design I dont think it would be too bad.

 

Maybe a Sarona hood?

Edit: Crap I forgot your in NZ now... I doubt someone will pay shipping all the way down there for one of those... but like said up above.. maybe it was a cowl induction hood... although it wouldnt do anything performance wise for our cars... other than maybe get some heat out from under there.

 

Older mustangs (after oil crisis) are not fast stock. Period. You can mod them to make them really, really fast with a few bolt ons and maybe some cams. The 99+ are when they started to get faster stock. I still don't think they are good cars except the 03-04 Cobra. I guess I see too many V6 auto chickstangs to really have some appreciation of them. Anyway very

That hood would have had to be custom I would think. Aren't the Maximas over there in NZ the I30/Cefiro body? Have you seen too many other modded maximas? I can't see the pic too well. Does it have some kind of fins as a reverse hood scoop or something?

Do they have the VQ25DD or VQ20DD or some engine with Direct injection? You may be able to get something started with possible seeing if this swap is possible or worth it.

 

I ve seen that hood on a fourth gen also I wonder what company makes that

 

just threw it out there dude.

 

probably just custom made. seeing as how if anyone was making/made them wouldn't someone on the org know about them....
