Hi to one and all . I am very pleased to be returning to the site after a few years hiatus . I went full circle all the way from a M35 back to a 4th gen 5spd.
I just wanted to say hello and thanks for keeping this site running after all these years. I will need help to get my current 4th gen back up to running condition .
Thanks to one and all.

 

Well welcome back lol!

 

Welcome back! But why the circle if you dont mind me asking? My dad went from a 4th gen to a M35s lol

 

welcome back. what are the problems with your "new to you" ride?

 

Welcome welcome. Always nice to have another 4th gen huh?

 

Thank you . I am doing the axles, energy suspension swaybar bushings and end links, tierod ends with boot and ball joints. I was given free gabriel ultra shocks\struts , which I have install . I am hoping to replace them in the near future to some affordable kyb GR 2. It has multiple codes, mainly o2's . The exhaust system is getto rigged from someone else , I will need to replace the down pipe \y pipe to cat, then the B pipe to exhaust. The funny part is, someone hacked the shifter off , now I will need a new stock shifter rod . The seats are leather but the driver side is badly worn.
Over all it is not a bad car for a 13year old car.
Thank you for reading.

 

Why would you get a stock shifter. sts that baby

 

Well , I started out with a 90 GXE auto , got married sold the GXE and purchased an IS300, bought a 97 SE 5sp (in sig) , did all the usual N\A upgrades then sold it for little or nothing to a friend ... purchased a 2002 6MT maxima which I called my oil burner.. I kept it for a few years then traded it in for a Toyota Sienna fully loded. One day on the Florida turnpike I totaled the IS300 .. I was suddenly able to take the money from the IS300 and purchased a M35 2007 fully loaded with active rear steering . I kept it until a few months ago and had to let it go due to a divorce ..
I am now a poor fellow going back to my roots .. One day I saw an almost identical car to my previous 97 maxima and the rest is history. I am now in an unending quest to fix this car up . I hope with all the help from this community I will be able to get it back up and running.
Thank you one and all for your help.

 

I like my arm resting on the arm rest , no I am old school. If anyone have their stock shifter out there and is willing to part with it kindly let me know how much and I will gladly take it from you.

 

Nothing beats the 4gen man, it is the sexiest maxima ever created in my eyes.. I know many will beg to differ.. but to each is their own. Your car looks nice and clean.

 

back to the 4th gen..o yea!

 

O man. Divorce huh, sorry man. Hope all goes well.
But that active rear steering, oh yea. My dad's is a fully loaded S, its got that too. Sooooo nice to drive

 

I notice that you are in the orlando area. Do you guys do meets ? If so maybe I could get some help or some cheap mechanic labor.

 

We do meet. Every 3rd saturday or sunday of the month. Goto the Southeast sub forums and look for a thread called the CFL monthly max meet.

 

Hi

 

I am in a similar situation to yours. Welcome back! We can come back stronger than ever bud.
