Well since Travis is closing down his shop after he finishes the B15 Sentra SE-R SpecV with the VQ transplant, what will come out of this Maxima Turbo project ? Yet another unfinished project I see....

I haven't been looking at the org lately... Sorry about not replying to this post until now... To clarify things, that VQ swap into that SE-R SpecV was started because my Maxima is next to that SpecV in his shop. So he took my DE-K out of my Maxima and put it into the SpecV just to see if it would fit, and it did and more, it has plenty of room and doesn't require that much fabrication as far as mounts and stuff goes. Back to my car, I'm waiting on an invoice from Travis so that I can send him the money, my car will be done by him as well before he closes the shop. The SpecV is not his last project, my car has been there for over a year and is a project in progress. We discussed everything that's going to be done to it, and to be blunt I'm not cutting any corners, I'm doing it right. Fully built motor, 9:1 compression ratio, I plan on running alot of boost on a large turbo, a full stand alone and more and I plan to break things... You'll see the finished project soon enough, but for now I'm not disclosing any more information until it's finished. I'm making it a track car, it's not going to be very practical for driving around town. My goal is to give Mardigras some competition. It's gonna be kinda funny that the two fastest Maxima's are from Louisiana... (I assume that's where Mardigras' is from hence his name and also since he used to run at No Problem Raceway, which is where I run).

He said he's tired of all the bull**** basically, like people pressuring him to finish their cars really quick and stuff. He likes to take his time and do it the right way, and I guess he's also tired of working on cars maybe. idk. I hate working on cars personally.
