For those newbs who ask about RB26's in Maximas
 
Do you think he has one? The first time I saw it I didnt have my camera, but luck was with me this time and I had it in the car. It can be found in Pinellas Park/Clearwater FL, as you can tell by the license plate frame. And to the owner of this car if you happen to be on the org...disgrace to the rest of us.

Take a trip to your local Autozone, and you too can show off the awesome power of the RB26 on your trunklid in stick-on form. :loser:

i bet that thing purrs like a pu$$y cat.

frankd121 Mar 28, 2005 11:23 PM

RB26? Easy swap man, just gotta slap on the badge and swap in the motor :calder:

ChromeSE5 Mar 29, 2005 12:22 AM

E55AMG2 Mar 29, 2005 05:54 PM

Im in a good mood today, so let the fun begin in the 5gen forum.....

kpr10is Mar 29, 2005 05:59 PM

Thanks Mike, your the man. I dont have a problem with threads getting locked for good reason, but no reason was posted and I see no no real reason to lock it, its harmless and no worse than the "you know you own a 5th gen when" threads or anything else, they are simply for a little humor.

TenetMusic Mar 29, 2005 07:32 PM

Progress Mar 29, 2005 07:57 PM

Why would they keep the dealer badge on it? :gotme:

Puppetmaster Mar 29, 2005 08:07 PM

Ah... he let us back into this thread... I thought I was going crazy or something since it was locked this morning... :)

Anyways... here's my constructive comment...

GT-R badge on a Maxima = :007: x 9825726577

GTR Badge=:007:

Speaking of lying and :bs:... there's someone on eBay who is actually trying to sell a Max with a JET chip in it... and yes, he's even claiming the hp gains from his JET chip...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6400

Talk about false advertising...

Maybe a swift :nutkick: would jumpstart the brain.

I emailed him. I asked how he managed to come up w/ those numbers and he said his mechanic told him those numbers. He said his car fees noticeably faster.

So he claimed 300 crank hp over stock of 255.... and he tells a guy who asked a question about the chip (its posted on the auction) that the chip gives 15 hp (which is BS, by the way)... so that's implying that the intake and exhaust gives 30 hp? Go figure...

Sadly, there have already been 4 bids on the car... poor people... little do they know...

Haha... I emailed him too... I asked for dynos and how an intake could give gains of almost 30 crank hp... :laugh:

tothemax319 Mar 29, 2005 09:10 PM

Aside from the bogus claims, it's still a pretty nice Maxima if the reserve price is right.

spiromax Mar 29, 2005 10:32 PM

On top of the fact that this poser has a GT-R badge on his non-RB car, I think it's funny that he added the GT-R badge without removing the SE or the LoKey Nissan emblems.

It doesn't seem totally unreasonable to assume that the new GT-R will be VQ-powered. Even if it is, putting a GT-R badge on a Maxima is just as bad as putting Type R on a Corolla. I see a lot of Mustang owners sticking GT-R badges on too. They think it's really cool to put them on V6 Mustangs, because it gives them the SUPER AWESOME power of a GT badge plus a red R.

I thought it was because it added an extra 15 horsepower :gotme: :)

UGAd13 Mar 30, 2005 10:40 AM

Come on guys, aren't y'all being too hard on the guy? I mean he is from Florida and people down there don't really know much about anything, especially cars. They think putting neon under their cars and adding a fart can is actually cool. Let's cut this guy a break.



P.S. I hate Florida. Especially the Gators! Go Dawgs!

Sorry, newb here... What is RB26? Skyline Engine?

yes. that dude is saying that just because that dude has a GTR emblem from a skyline that means he did an engine swap :jeffy:

nicks79 Mar 30, 2005 04:28 PM

Looks like its the girl behind the wheel.

nirvana4all Mar 30, 2005 06:28 PM

Go noles, anyway, the GT-R thing your opinion is yours... who knows, but leaving the SE and Lokey, that is what is really :007:
That is like gutting a computer, putting in all new components and leaving the lame Dell sticker while adding Athlon 64 stickers on it...just doesn't matchup or make sense. Gotta love Lokey...I buy from Crown.

99 SE-L Mar 30, 2005 06:49 PM

I love that 2002 maxima on Ebay that claims 300 hp LOL from a Chip Lmao scammers now days what a :007:
