A Nice Surprise today!! (Turbo Max) 56K NO!
I work at an auction and had access to this sexy turbo maxima. I havent seen this on the org. I thought you guys would like to see this really nice car.
As far as I can tell it was a 99 crimson blaze SE fully loaded. with 90K. lol.. i even took it around the yard for a little bit.
I don't know much about the car because i was rushing to take the best possible pics and test drive 
So here you go:

I don't know how much it sold for.. no it's not a repo auction. By the pics can any turbo guys figure out what kind of setup he had. It also had 3" turbo back and several gauges.
I wonder what that thing is worth ? It said JDM engine was installed as well

yeah. Unless it was somehow a VQ30DET I don't think a JDM VQ30 would make much of a difference.

It's a PFI kit. Car had MEVI on it too, I bet that is what they meant when they said JDM engine.

They got MEVIs in lots of places besides the middle east. We just first learned about the MEVI from a guy in the middle east and that became the name of it before we knew it came from other places too.

I was just about to mention I believe I know who owned that car. got a few parts from him quite a while back. Didn't know he was getting rid of it. Hadn't seen him on the org lately though.

Noooooooo
NOOOOOOOOOO, say it aint so!! Brooklyn's red beast is gone. This goes to show. There are people who don't even come online often who have turbo'd VQ35s, ran 11s, even swapped in VQ30DET engines in their cars and just go unrecognized. This red maxima has been like this for years. It will be missed in Brooklyn.

How on earth did that car end up at auction? There was obviously a great deal of time put into it. More importantly, a great deal of $$$. I can't fathom how that car would be traded in like that, when a lot more money could have been gained through private sale; or if not that, at least a great deal of money could have been had by parting it out and then trading it in. Someone got a raw deal on this...
Cams, maybe?
nice car and nice turbo

yea dude that thing was absolutley sexy, and the rims meshed together well with the car too. im dont know if im right but i looked like a T3 TO4E turbo setup, it looks like one and thats also the most common turbo to go with when boosting a VQ. nice car though... damn.
