You can't link pictures from your home computer.

Check here for sites where you can host your photos: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?threadid=78753

And sure you can fit a Skyline engine in your Maxima ... how big is your wallet?

you can find used skyline engines on ebay for $6000. i dont have a skyline and it would be cheaper to do that. i just wanted to know if it would fit if i did it.

yeah...it would be alot better to have the whole skyline...but it would me cool to have a fast engine in a max, and smoke the crap outta people.....

also, how much do you think a skyline runs for? and what about specs on these? they are some bad *** cars!

if you got a GTR engine and that much cash and time, why not just put it in a cheap supra or something. at least put it in a sportier car with RWD. the job will be much easier and the handling and stuff will be better. sell the Max and get some car with blown engine or something. The motor itself does not make the GTR special, it is the motor AND the awd with special ETS(and some other stuff I don't know) make the GTR unique. if I got so much CASH and TIME, I'll just buy the GTR and use my time either to make some money or enjoy myself.

Consider Top Secret put the motor in their supra for their reputation in the mod business, you'll put the motor in your Max for what? you'll try and succeed.

Good luck finding someone to do it for you. If you do find someone that can do it, he probably will charge you $40K.

It might not fit anyway. It is an Inline Six isn't it? Even mounted transversally it will probably be too long for a maxima engine bay. The entire rear wheel drive thing would be tricky to put in a max as well. I agree with putting it into a sportier car but I have a better suggestion than a supra.
Put it in a 95-98 240SX, already RWD and a good chasis (and a damn long hood). And anyone expecting to find a little KA24 or even SR20DET motor will be unpleasantly surprised.
