Is this intake manifold on 00-01 or only 01, anyway i could tell for sure other then its black and not metal...I've started full time doing internet sales at a salvage yard that i've been at off and on for many years and today i walked by the guy that strips down the motors and he asked "hey need a manifold for your maxima" full set up off a 00 maxima siting on the ground pulled off complete with all hoses and everything. Just need to know if its the right one. I know i wouldnt be paying much for it at all...any info would help

I believe what you want is the intake manifold off a 2000 Maxima giving you what is referred to as 00VI. Given you have a 96-5-speed, a lot of .orgers combine that with a JWT ECU with a raised rev limiter (say 7200) and then hold on to your hat, lol!

Do you have an aftermarket y-pipe? That is the best bang for the buck performance enhancement for a 4th Gen Maxima.

 

Yeah i just couldnt remember what it was called, i havent looked at doing it for a while...so 00 maxima manifold will do it then right...im gonna have to put it aside tomorrow, i was meaning to ask them if i could pull a motor apart for the manifold but for some reason they happened to pull this one apart. now to do some research and find somone to help.

hot item, but it should be off a federal spec model

 

Just wondering...if he has the whole motor in good condition why not just do the whole swap???
Just and idea

 

you could do the whole swap, but i dont thing aftermarket ecus are out for that motor. or im i wrong?

 

Its 2000-2001

 

you can use the 4th gen ECU with the 5th gen VQ30.

 

I just had this motor put in from the salvage yard, its from a 98 with 17k miles on it, no need to swap, the must of pulled the motor apart for a reason, it might not of turned over or had a cracked block or sumthin
