Yes, OBD-II was implemented for the 1995 model year, but it wasn't mandated until the 1996 model year.

Ok. I'll race ya with my 88k mile 95 SE

I'll even give you a head start.

LMAO, as im reading this whole thread, i was thinking the same thing the whole time. The *** on the 95-96's are just to FAT lol. Thats why I like my 98's nice Tight ***, it gives it that more "Sporty" look.

Yeah who cares about this minimal speed difference? The 97+ rear is so much better IMO. I like the way Maxima emblem is together instead of all spread out and the way the tail lights are set up is a lot more sharp looking than the fatness of the 95-96. Just my opinion though

I agree on the ugliness of the '95-'96 tails, and the '97-'99's aren't much better. Anybody ever consider shaving the portion of the taillights on the decklid? How do you think it would look?

Well it isn't weight

I just went to Edmunds.com and they seem to have reported a whoping 9 lbs difference between cars. So lets go back to the drawing board after scratching the weight issue.

I wouldn't speak so soon, I have a 96 se 5spd with mods, I raced a 97 se Auto that was stock, I thought that my car would be able to beat it even if I gave it a head start and i couldn't catch up, I only gave it like a half a car length. I think that It was my Venom 400 that was causing the problem.
