4TH GEN MAX---> 4 WHEEL DRIVE?

Is it possible? How much you think that would cost?

more money than it is worth. probably more than the value of your car and then some...

four wheel drive is for suv's and trucks, all wheel drive (awd) is what you'd be after.

It would be AWD if it were converted.

The Skyline GT-R is somewhat of an exception since it has part time AWD and a transfer case through the ATTESA-ETS system. The EVO and WRX are both regular AWD.

In short you could try but it would be a LOT of work and money. With some suspension mods, tires, and motor mounts you should be able to get really good traction and handling. No one has ever converted a maxima and I doubt it would be worth it unless it was a dedicated race car with an almost unlimited budget. That is something very rare if non existant for a maxima.
