what about non perfomance mods?
also i want to find a cheap set of stock fog lights, and maybe a spoiler. i would want one the same color as the car. i am just worried about drilling holes in my trunk. unfortunantly maxima's are very uncommon in junk yards around here.

1996 Maxima (MAF) Mass Air Flow question
Hi,
My dad's 96 Maxima started sputtering and stalling over the past few days. OBD-II pulled a P0100 code--MAF malfunction. I took a look at it, the wiring looks fine, but there seems to be a worn rubber gasket where the MAF unit connects to the airbox (not the air filter box--other side where clamp is). Wish I could explain it better. I was wondering if there is indeed a rubber gasket there, and if so, could its wear be the problem. The MAF is rather expensive, but we can't seem to locate any info about whether or not that is actually a gasket there and where to find the replacement. Any info, pictures, etc would be helpful. Thanks!

Two Codes: 0304 and 0111
Ok, the CEL went on a few days ago, and I checked today and I got the common 0304 code, and I also got the 0111 code for some "EVAP control system/Flow" thing, anyways I am confused as to what to do, will replacing the knock sensor fix both problems? and if so how bad is it to drive like it is right now - will I just get worse milage and performance? Thanks.

Lighting question:
What type of light bulb do I need to replace the lights for the odometers?
The lights ceased to work and I can't see how fast I'm going or what the rpm is during night.

Just remember, if you have Bose, you'll need to replace it all or buy a special adapter if you want to keep the speakers and use an aftermarket headunit.

The remote is only for opening the windows to start venting hot air as you walk toward the car, or to crack them open on a hot day.

You can also get #74 bulbs to fit in there, but they are a little smaller than the stock bulbs and not as bright.

Help!
Hi!
I hope someone can give me some advice on what to do next. I have a 1999 Maxima, 83,000 miles, have had it for a little over one year with no problems but for the past one month it has given me a lot of trouble...At first I changed the plugs because my mechanic suggested that at 83,000 miles it was about time for a tune up. That is when everything seemed to go wrong...the same day I changed the plugs my car became 'lazy' - I had to really step on the gas for it to pick up speed even on level ground or it would really jerk while going up a hill and when I was stopped it would sort of 'shake' badly(rough idle??) so i took it back to the mechanic and he changed the plugs to a different brand but that did not help the matter at all. As if that was not enough, the SES light came on and that resulted in me having to change the MAF sensor (which I had do twice because the first one failed two days after I replaced it). Then after taking care of that and clearing the codes, the SES light came back on again producing the code for "Random Cylinder Misfire" so for the third time my mechanic replaced the plugs with another 'better' brand. That was a week and a half ago...for a couple of days it rode fine but recently i have noticed the 'lazy' acceleration and the 'shaking' while I am stopped are back...also while all this problems have been going on my car has been consuming a lot more gas that usual.
I don't want to wait till the SES light comes on again but I don't want to go back to that same mechanic. I also can't afford to take it to the Nissan Dealership...any ideas on what might be really wrong with my car...I live in Atlanta, GA any suggestions on a good mechanic too would also really help.
Thank you.

Most people here only recommend the OEM plugs. NGK Platinum. ~$10 each.
Anything else tends to cause problems in our cars.
Also, I would suggest replacing all the Ignition Coils. It sounds like one or more of them may be bad. This is very common in 1999 models. They run about $80-90 each at the dealer. Or there are usually people in the 4th Gen forsale forum selling used sets for much less.
PS: You can change the spark plugs and ignition coils yourself. It's not very difficult.

Lighting question:
I got an answer that I can replace my instrument cluster bulb with a #74 type bulb.
But I noticed that it MIGHT be the fuse.
I checked the fuse and they seemed to be working. The only problem is that the instrument cluster backlight is out but the needles (orange) work perfectly fine.
Can anyone tell me if this is due to the fuse being worn out or the light bulbs.
Also, to double-check that I checked the right fuse.
Which fuse is it for the instrument cluster backlight?
Is it the "Interior Illumni"? [#18 on the backpanel]
Thanks in advance! I really need to get this fixed and without much cost because the nissan dealership near here is too pricey.

Thanks for the help and Im glad to be in the nissan camp

Hey guys. Currently I'm looking for a 1999 Maxima SE and I seem to have found one, but I'm a bit curious about the price. The car's almost completely stock and looks as follows:
1999 Maxima SE
160,516 KM on it (exactly 99739 miles)
Standard 5spd
Interior and exterior in good condition except a scratch on the side
Power everything
Black leather interior
A/C
Stock cd player (not Bose)
Tinted windows
It has no mods on it (yet ) and the guy's selling it for $8100 (Canadian). With tax and all appliccable costs it should come out to roughly 9 grand at this price ($8100 Canadian is about $7160 American). I've checked "The Red Book" and it has the 1999 Nissan Maxima SE listed at $11500 for private sales. I've also checked edmunds.com and kbb.com, both of which list it as around $6000 to $7000 American (6.7K to 7.9K Canadian), hence me scratching my head.
Any advice or comments on this deal? I've never had the pleasure of owning one of these beasts before, and I'm eager and willing to get started.
Thanks

If you get the crystal heads, there are a lot of options. You can make projectors, 9007 upgrade, or run regular 9004s. It depends on how much work you can do or what you want to pay. Start searching that stuff.

i'm looking into upgrading my brakes i have purchased ebc brake pads already and now want a nice set of reliable rotors. can someone tell me the advantages of drilled, slotted, or drilled/slotted rotors and if those types of rotors wear away pads quicker than conventional whole rotors and do you get better responsive braking in the city with drilled, slotted, drilled/slotted, or plain rotors, whew all in all i am looking for responsive city braking what is my best option?

Now, if I'm going to go with the Maxima I listed in the above posts, I've got to figure out ahead of time the PST that I'll be charged. Unfortunately the guy selling the car isn't including it, so I'll have to pay that ontop of the $8100. Two questions:
In Canada, we only have to pay PST on private sales, when we go to register the car. How much is that PST charge percent-wise? 6, 7, or 8%?
(I'm in Ontario)
If someone could tell me how exactly the PST is calculated, that would be awesome. I know it has to do with the retail/wholesale value, but for this one I want to make sure my info is correct. With a 99 Maxima SE in good condition, selling for $8100 with most if not all extras, what will my PST be? And if you could explain how you came to that price, I'd greatly appreciate it!
He's given me the VIN and I've checked Carfax.com. Looks like the entire car's clean of problems.
And lastly, the bloke selling it says that there's "no tax" which I know is ridiculous. Should I be suspicious at all? I have half a mind to ask him if by "no tax" he means the tax is included in the $8100.
Thanks

Actually, if someone could just tell me which price in "the red book" I should be using to calculate the PST on this used car, that'd work too. There are three prices listed: Trade-in, Private, and Retail.

Rotors, calipers, etc mean nothing unless you've also upgraded your tires for more absolute grip, or you're running on a track and repeated braking pushes the caliper temps up over 500F. Your stock brakes will exceed the grip of your tires in every possible situation unless you get those brakes really, really, really hot.
In case anyone doubts my assertion that you can't heat fade these brakes doing ordinary street driving, then buy some of that thermal marking tape that changes color when it gets to a particular temp. Then tell me what it takes to get the calipers that hot. Aside from loading the car over its weight limit and doing a 120mph-0 stop down a massively steep mountain road, there isn't much you'll come up with.
Which leads me back to my point: new rotors and calipers won't make much difference. But the big brakes do look a little different.

I know that they arent the best out there, but how do you guys think the ride will be? Cuz im not lookin to take corners at 60, but i just need struts and i figured why not lower it at the same time. So this looked like a decent deal cuz it comes w/ springs, im just thinking maybe i am better off spending a little more for some other brand. I dont kno, tell me wut you think, Thanks.

well the scratching noise is at start up and also when i'm idling.... it will happen when i turn anything that has to do with electrics on.... whether it be audio, lighting, brakes, or even windshield wipers... it will start and sometimes stop when i turn something on... it kinda has a rhythm to it...
also i need to fix my brakes i think brake pads and rotors.. i'm getting a scratching noise as i'm riding along the lines of warped rotors... its a very loud scratching noise

If your brakes are scratching while you drive, and it does away some while you brake, your next stop needs to be a brake shop. The brake pads are worn to the point where they are rubbing on a noisemaker, and if you've been driving this way it means you're very close to having no pad material at all.
Your rotors will likely need replaced too due to the scratching.
