00 and 01 SE

you will also need to purchase the wire harness for the 00/01 tails

will look like this

 

I read somewhere that it is tricky to replace the shift **** for a manual transmission on a 5th gen. Can anyone suggest a good replacement to the original and any installation quirks I may need to know about? My shift boot needs to be replaced as well... Thanks!

 

suggest getting your boot from here http://www.redlinegoods.com/

good quality leather...get the ebrake boot and arm rest cover as well

 

Great! Can you suggest a brand on shift ***** that will work?

 

Is there a place on here to get these for a deal? What about wire harness?

 

bought mine here https://1001headlightscom.ssl21.com/

ordered the harness from dave burnette (512)444-1400

 

Thanks!

This Maxima crew is pretty awesome! Everyone is willing to help out and I have been getting some quick answers.

What color is your car? Did you like the different look? I also see the GXE has all red?

 

00-01 GXE and GLE were all red

sold my car a few months ago but it was black...the black tails were a must

 

why would my door open from the inside but not the outside??

 

Ahh, I just happened to get the GLE with the fugly altezza looking lights. haha

My car is the champagne color.

 

Hello all,

I recently (2 months ago) bought an 01 max SE with 133 k and the ride was bumpy/rough so I wanted to change the struts. I am not a fan of modding or anything, I just want a clean/smooth ride. So with that said, recently about a month ago I bought 4 original OEM struts all around for the max from a seller here who claims it had only 8k on them. I got them installed along with new sway bar ends, mounts, dust boots, etc. The springs are the original ones that remained on the car. The parts were installed from a trusted person who took alot of time and car to install everything

Now my problem is, it has been abt 1 k miles on the newer struts and parts, but the ride isn't smooth, only a little bit better than original struts. I hear squeaks when going over certain bumps and I can feel the bumps greatly when going over them. I got the front end checked out by two shops and they said it looks fine. I also got an alignment a week after getting the parts/struts installed and still no difference. For minor bumps, the car is not too bad (could be smoother but is tolerable) but for major bumps (New York roads and such), I can feel it pretty hard. So I don't know what else to do.

Please advise.

Thanks

 

ALL 02/03s had those...my car was an SE and had the clear ones when i bought it

 

Hmmmmm, I need to see a WV2 with black tails.

 

here is a KT3 which is close(ish)...at least light colored

 

Broken handle of course.

 

Ok so my maxi has 124 k miles and i want to get the spark plugs replaced but i am getting quoted like 340 for it because labor. I know there is a pretty in depth tutorial online, but the thing is, its not like im not mechanically inclined, but ive never attempted a project this big. Would you guys rec. i just pay the price or get the tools ready to do some work...

 

I haven't looked, but does it require you to remove anything to get to the plugs?

If you're some what mechanically inclined I'm sure you'll be fine.

I'm sure the labor is just labor hours. People have to get paid for the amount of time they spend on it.

 

The back 3 are the ones where the labor charges kick in.

Its a pretty in-depth tutorial so i feel a lot more comfortable doing it.

 

How long does my battery need to be unhooked for my ECU to reset? I tried 45 minutes and my SES light is still on. Thanks!

2000 Maxima SE MT
144,000 miles

 

Doesn't look too bad, but I see where all the labor hours are.

 

resetting it will not remove a stored code

best way to get rid of light - fix the problem

other way - delete with code reader

 

using the how-to, its an easy job...just need to remove intake manifold to get to the back three

 

Is there a cheap code reader that I could buy to reset my SES light? I appreciate your help!

 

i have this one http://www.amazon.com/Actron-CP9135-.../dp/B00009RAX7

always good to have around...there are cheaper ones...go to your local car store (autozone, etc) and pick one up

 

Thank you so much for the recommendation! I will be swinging by Autozone later today! You were right, resetting the ECU does not delete the codes...

 

Hi there i have 2001 Nissan Maxima SE. I'm getting code PO430. Front bad pre-cat. I have seen listings on ebay of warspeed Y pipe it removes the pre-cats. Will this not throw any codes? will my check engine light go out? Would be nice to elminate cost of pre-cats. What upgradges have you done to your 2001. My whole exhuast is rusted. Need to replace. Thanks in advance!!

 

I took my car through emissions today after having my battery disconnected last night resetting the ECU. I failed because the following monitors were not ready:

Catalyst
Oxygen Sensor
EGR System

1.) How long will it take for these systems to be ready after the ECU reset?
2.) How will I know if they are ready?
3.) Does clearing ECU fault codes affect the readiness of these systems?

Thanks for all of your help!

 

car has to be at operating temp for a test...

 

I had driven it for an hour prior to the test.

 

Have a huge problem. I sprayed out my engine bay today and now there is a problem. It worked fine at first, but now on start up the engine revs fine but after about 10 seconds it will not. If given gas it will not rev past 1500 rpm. Its almost like a maf but i have checked and it looks fine. Plaese help!

The car is a 2002. Electric throtle body maybe. Have the car with no nevative terminal on for now drying in the sun.

Have a big car meet today and need to be there by 9.

 

Now after letting car warm up the ABS light comes on and a ticking noise from under the driver side dash.
Also did some trouble shooting and the maf is throwing a code but when running and unpluged the car jumps, but stayes running.
When maf is taken off and the throttel body does not open up when gas throttle is given when keys are turned.

 

sounds like a bad MAF to me

 

Sorry i am posting something about seafoam... But when adding it to the gas tank, are u supposed to add it like 44k where u wait for the gas light to come on, add, then fill up? Or does it not matter when added.

 

i bought a 02 max gle the sub keeps cutting off when u hit it from the bottom of the sub the protective plastic it comes on but then later goes off i need help it borthers me and please helpp mee!!!!!!

 

Okay Guys i have a problem and im trying to figure out what and where this noise is coming from. I ran 4 gauge wire from the battery to the amp. remote wire is hook up. Ground wire is 4 gauge. and speaker wire is hooked up to my two 12s'. I have a sound clip of the noise here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULBQIVqbqvw SOMEBODY PLEASE LET ME KNO WHAT THE FIX IS

 

will work the same either way

 

I can't access the video to listen here, but if it sounds like engine noise through the speaker then you need to seperate the power wire from the signal wire. I ran mine on opposite sides of the car.

 

okay i will check that out but definitely try to listen to the clip because i believe it is separate already but there is no video just sound when you go to the clip. I cannot figure it out.

 

Does the pitch change with RPM of the engine? It sounds like engine noise to me. If so, your signal cable is getting interference from the power cables. Also, where do you have your amp grounded at?

 

What filter is better on the Berk intake system JTW POP Charger or Apeix filter?

How can i tell if my car is EGR OR Not?

Whats are the best license plate Leds Lights?
