My dad got a Pathfinder and that 3.5 is a BEAST! I WANNA SWAP SO BAD!!!

Had a little road trip with my dad in his new pathfinder and that 3.5 engine delivers so much power that the first thing that crossed my mind was how cool it would be to have a VQ 3.5 swapped into my car. But sadly there aren't any experienced orgers in my area that could help me out with that, nor do I have the resources/experience to swap out the engine/tranny on my own. If I could find someone with experience on 3.5 swaps in my area i'd start saving for a VQ35 and a 5-spd Tranny...

I'm gonna go cry in the corner now...

My setup is basically a pathfinder 3.5 swap, except I don't have their intake manifold, mine stayed being a mevi, and it's not bad at all. Here...

5th gens are the fugliest Maximas ever... besides I could probably swap in a 3.5 (or S/C or Turbo my 3.0 ) for the differential i'd have to pay for a decent 5th gen
