I have another Maxima (can't get enough). A 98 with 192k, I see it needs the obvious valve cover gaskets, power steering hose and maybe timing tensioner & of course the radiator support. What else can I do along way to ensure she runs excellent! I plan on putting my stock turbo off of my 87 T-type on it next year. Also I currently have a vafc2 computer. Can I wire this into the stock 98 for future times? Thanks in advance for all the knowledge I gained from the org!

 

Just give her a full tune-up.

Here's how to install the VAFCII into your Max.

Yeah that's already in motion...Spark plugs, fuel filter, pcv valve, oil change, and fresh coolant. What else should I do?

 

If its auto, tranny fluid if its been maintained well before hand, air filter also

 

Don't do the following and it will run excellent for a long time.

 

why shouldn't I turbo. I want some kind of power adder

 

Because if you want it to run excellent (for a long time) we recommend not doing that. Its already a high mileage car. Just our recommendation though. How about the normal bolt-ons first?

 

True. I already have a CAI, y-pipe and a 2½" Greddy sp2 cat back & slotted rotors all around. I plan on doing suspension over the winter. What else can I do to keep up with the majority on the road? Future plans are 00vi intake, maybe a chip and hoping to swap in a LSD trans

 

Normal bolt ons are weaksauce and don't add up to all that much. I say boost it. If done properly, it will have no ill effects on your engine. Your transmission may start to hate you, but not the engine.

 

Kool... Thanks

 

Is turbo the best way to go... I'm looking for decent mpg, reliability because I travel a lot and all around sleeper... Do any companies make bolt on kits? What prep should I do to ensure everything works right & efficient
