True but if you are going to spend a ridiculous amount of money on a swap, why not go RWD as well?

how often do you guys change plugs in your car..jus need a quick answer and if so...what kind do you use???

AceofSpds

iTrader: (4)

Depends on what kind (copper (30k), platinum(75k), and etc) preffered brand is NGK.

ok jus wondering because i changed mine last year around thanksgiving and was wondering do you change them every year....jus feel a lil misfire in the engine......a barely little shake and i figured if i changed the plugs it would go away....

/\/\ like chopstix said, depends what you put in last Thanksgiving.

Your misfire might be the result of a dead coil pack, do you have a check engine light?

Tee00Max

iTrader: (18)

i had one bad coil and i replaced that a while back......and i dont have a check engine light....i mean on a level of like 1-10 on the shake its like a 1 4real....but still dont like things goin on with the car......and i put in bosch last thanksgiving....

AceofSpds

If they are bosch then they are platinum plugs, those should last you a while. Also sometimes if you have a bad coil it wont thow a code immediately.

I wouldn't put Bosch. Also, "last Thanksgiving" is very vague. Mileage is more important.
If you want a cool project, build a DE/HR hybrid w/ some extra goodies (cams, HR-Z pistons/ L34 IM) and toss it in your Max.
Holy mother of all that is holy and electrical. I think I would myself trying to get that ECU config in my car. Aside from that, something needs to be tweaked with that thing. To my horrific surprise (read: disappointment) the HR in the new Z gives a better, fatter power curve.
No, still no. Define ridiculous.

if you had great fab skills you could make a RWD max for not THAT much. obviously it would take forever in the driveway though and having a shop do it would cost the original asking price of the car...plus some

I hope to all that is Holy we can stop talking about RWD conversions in a newbie thread.

Thank you. That is exactly mine look like. Your box is missing an ABS ACTR & ABS motor relay. I assume your ABS is working?
I am going to scan my computer but no check engine or abs light on.
Do you think scanner will read any codes based on this?

Thanks

What is a fair price to pay for an 02-03 full headlight conversion (ballasts, bulbs, housing, etc) for my 01?

Why, with 15 posts, can I still not start a new thread? I just put a light under my hood and I wanna brag about it.

what mods or part they have for a 02 maxima for Performance?

QuiKSiLvR

I was interested in getting a new sound system put in my 01 GLE.. but from looking at the dash unit, putting anything else in seems like it wouldn't turn out to pretty.. I don't know much about sound systems for cars in general.. so i'm just curious of people who have replaced the bose and how well it turned out x_x

Maxima_5th

Hello: I just bought an '02 Maxima from out of state. The car appears to have never had a license plate on the front before, but living in Ohio, I am required to have a front plate.

Is there a license plate bracket, specific to the '02 Maxima, that I need in order to mount a license plate? If so, where can I get that bracket.

Thanks!

Scottwax

iTrader: (8)

The dealer should have the bracket, or you may find one available in the 5th gen for sale forum. I don't know if the front bumper is pre-drilled or not but if it isn't, you will have to drill two holes in it to attach the bracket.

I own 02 Maxima SE. I was looking through previous threads and couldn't find anything as far as a turbo for it. I know there is probably nothing that is a straight bolt on. If they are out there, then about the tuning? Could you perhaps point toward the right direction?

spdfreak

Your in the newbie section!

The right direction would be to look at the stickies of the Supercharged/Turbocharged section, under the Advanced Performance section.

Looked through the FAQ's and the How-To's, and did a google search but couldnt find anything on a fix for the glove compartment rattle. Can anyone point me to a thread or give some advice on how to fix it. Its bugging the hell out of me.

Thanks.

this may be noob but whats the point of a short shifter?

SoonerFan

iTrader: (5)

shorter....shifts

the throws of the shifts are shorter which decreases the shift times
