We will put you on our demand list. However, we need more demand on Maxima to
produce performance parts for your vehicle.

Thank you

Do you have plans to produce exhaust for Nissan Maximas? Being a Maxima
driver myself, I sincerely urge your company to consider my plea! I and many
other drivers at Maxima.org( - Home for the Maxima
Enthusiast) really would
appreciate your interest in providing us with a worth while performance
exhaust.

Maxima Driver,

Jeffrey J. Catt

I had a Tanabe on my Civic w/ GSR swap when they first came out..... wow!!! that thing made nice gains for an exhaust.

I would just like to see a G-Medalion seris for the Max. That shiney muffler would look good.

Tanabe makes good sh*t. Actual gains, and good sound. I prefer it over Greddy, HKS, etc... Too bad they don't make any products for the Maxima though.

Do they make universal exhausts? If so, we could get the hangers welded on and maybe a custom connector welded from the B-pipe to the exhaust can.

I am pretty sure that is a negative on that. I have only seen specific applications from them.

Do we all need to start writing them and asking???

Yeah That's why I was trying to get one made for Maximas!
Though, The SCC Mr2 spyder made little to no gain in performance with the Tanabe racing medalion and it weighed more than stock system.
I would still buy one, because I too have heard good things about tanabe from other people.

I've driven GS300 with tanabe hyper medallion. Looks expensive, like Greddy SP, sounds really great! Wish they have universal hyper medallion

What about buying the whole catback system from, say, GS300, cut it off and just use the muffler can for our maxima? Can we do that? If so, I think I'd do that.
