Im sure this question has been asked before , and maybe it is a dumb question for me to ask , but oh well... Is it possible to cram the new 3.5 maxima engine into a 4th gen ? and also , is it possible to get the 6 speed tranny put in ?? Even if the engine wont fit , can the 6 speed fit ? and if i got the 3.5 in , would i need new exhaust, or could i just keep my greddy and budget setup the way it is ... ??

 

Everything is possible with enough money.

How much $ do you have?

and yet no one really comes up with a good response.., i am sick of these posts too. the 6 speed isnt even available yet. how do you plan on buying one for parts??

 

It will probably be less expensive (and less trouble) to just buy a 2002 Maxima with a 6-spd and trade in your current Max.

 

The VQ35DE would definitely fit. It's the same block.

 

I know it would be easier and cheaper , but if i were going to buy a new car , i would buy the Z , i just really like my max a lot . They always say you shouldnt fall in love with a car , but ,,, i couldnt help it
