by ve do you mean a vq30de-k? i did that swap. theres really no other motor that anyone would desire to put in a maxima because our motors have so much potential as it is. unless someone wants to put a supra motor or rotory from a 3rd gen rx-7. if thats the motor you want in there then just buy that car.

But thats not what he asked, more like if the 4g was in the RX-7s place ... That was cool though, even the gauges were in there from the Max ...

But seriously. I know a few people have dropped 2K engines into a 4th gen. I am currently trying to research this. Can anyone try to shed some light on it. I have gone through all the All Motor posts and the 1st 50 or so pages of the 4th gen posts and found natta.
