I have seen some claims that the pedal came on cars without the hsld. They seemed to be a common mod for a lot of people due to their looks and not terrible cost.

If the rest of the car is completely stock then the chances are pretty good, but the code is the real way to tell.

 

Did unplugging the battery with windows help? I'd rather know than to have to reprogram all my radio stations. Thanks.

Was this the thread? The one it links to seems to have a solid answer. Which isn't unplugging the battery.

 

congrats. be sure to stop by the DC area forums...several Richmond folks hang out there and are very knowledgeable about all things Maxima....in case you ever need local help.

what the other n00b said is correct. That, or you can lay down some rubber and see if there are two full tracks (not suggested)

tires may be out of balance, and certain tires are just louder than others. As to Hankooks...yeah, they're inexpensive, but not "cheap." Actually very good performance tires in most cases. I'm on my second set for autocross and they are superior to the top autocross tires out there, the Falken Azenis 615 and Kumho MX, in my opinion.

If you mean the member that goes below the b-pipe....don't worry about it. It's just there in case the pipe somehow breaks, so it doesn't drag on the ground. I scrape the hell out of my crossmembers all the time.

excellent plan!

 

you are an impressive n00b indeed.....I foresee a bright future for you around here.

 

I guess noob is a step up. I used to just lurk until they forced you to register.

Thanks

 

Irish and gephelps, thanks for the help, I appreciate it.
As for the window issue, the lcokout switxch was the first thing I tried, but I will try testing the circuit. Thanks again!

 

To his question, what about the pads that don't put loops on all 4 pads? Should we put the pads w/ the loops on the outside of the rotor and those with the clips on the inside of the rotor so that the clips don't clip against the wheels? Also, wouldn't missing the loops cause the pad to continuously rub against the rotor since there's nothing to foroce the pad off of the rotor?

 

Can someone point me to the direction of a master thread or thread(s) with regards to the sub cutting out?

Have a '00 GLE with the Bose setup, the sub dies and comes back. Seems to work better in the summer, lately in the last couple of weeks has not worked at all.

Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

 

How about trying the audio section since that would be the "master" of everything audio related?

 

back to the top....where this thread is needed!

 

Can I raise the rear of my '03 6-spd Maxima with a floor jack centered under the rear axle beam? Risks/considerations? Also, what is the best floor jack location in the front (so that I can raise the car & put jack stands under the stock jack pad locations)?
Thanks!

 

Anyone know where the O2 Sensor Thread is located for 5th Gens?


Thanks

J

 

You should be fine. The beam is one of the jack points specified in the service manual. For the front, there is a little knub on that your jack will fit on.

What do you need to know exactly?

There is some useful info here:

http://maxima.theowensfamily.com/tsb/NTB02-051a.pdf

 

I need to find the location of O2 sensor, Bank 1, Sensor 1

I've already changed out 2 O2 sensors in the past 3 months, those being Bank 2, sensor 2 and Bank 1, sensor 2

Im just not sure if Bank 1, sensor 1 is Upstream or Downstream

 

Hey thanks Puppetmaster, that was very helpful....it sent me right where I needed to go

 

My instincts (yeah I'm a newbie, but I'm 44 and have owned over a dozen cars) tell me that sensor 1 would be the upstream sensor whereas sensor 2 would be the downstream.

Edit - I see that you already got the answer. Sorry if my response was misleading at all.

 

Ok so I took my stock 2002 auto max to the track tonight to see what she'd do in the 1/4 mile...did 5 runs and the best I could pull was a 15.173

that sound pretty normal? I was hoping for like a 14.9 or atleast 14 flat. I did get a lot of tire spin, running Nitto Extreme 450's 225 width. I'll scan in the timeslips if anyone wants to see.

 

I Have A Question For My 20th Anniversary Maxima. Can A Clogged Fuel Filter Cause Missfiring, Also How Ofter Should You Change Your Fuel Filter?

 

Take a look around here to see what others have done:

http://forums.maxima.org/forumdisplay.php?f=45

IIRC, people have run in the mid to high 14s with a stock AT 02-03 Max. I know Gooey did it for one.

 

There are other variables that will affect your track times, if you didnt know, like humidity, air temp, track temp, and altitude

 

Question....does anyone know or have a picture of which wire to tap into for the switched power to the auto dim mirror and the vanity light.. im hardwiring my radar detector if that helps. Thanks

 

Not what the difference between track temp and air temp was, but I live in AZ with low humidity and it was about77-80 degrees according to the gauge cluster in my car.

 

Does anyone have a black headliner in there 5 gen? I have a 5.5 with the black leather and was wondering what my options are???

 

I have looked all over this site, can't get a straight forward answer..or i'm using the wrong terms to express what i'm trying to say.
I have a 2000 Nissan Maxima GXE/SE and I believed I hooked up my AE HU just fine.
I purchased the wire harness and color matched them and grounded the unit near the car's computer ( it was bulky and shielded in the center console)
The only thing is ever since the install...all i'm getting is a high pitch sound.
I ran the rca wire from the HU to the AMP on the passenger side of the car....and the remote and power wire on the drivers side.
When I removed my factory HU, it said Clarion underneath...it would have said BOSE if it was right?!? I thought I got the wrong harness but it clearly said 1995 and up for non-bose system. Does the non-bose system in the 2000 Maxima have crossovers or amplifiers that i'm not aware of that could cause this high pitch noise? Would getting the Scoshe OEM Amplifier Adapter make a difference on a non-bose system?

Thank you for your patience in reading this...thanks for any help.

 

it sounds like you have a bad ground. Try running a ground wire directly to a frame piece behind the dash.

Also, the Bose setup uses a 2 ohm system, while the non-bose is 4 ohm, IIRC...

 

I belive you are going to have to dye your headliner

 

What size tires are most of you running, standard being 225/50/17?

 

Did you check out this page:
http://search.yahoo.com/web/advanced...r=fp-tab-web-t

Not trying to be a wise-guy, I just don't think you'll get many responses from the seasoned players on this newbie thread regarding such a topic. It's prolly been discussed. I'm interested in the answers as I am running bone stock too, but feel a 235/45-17 size would yield many more hi-perf tire options. Good luck!

 

Question....does anyone know or have a picture of which wire to tap into for the switched power to the auto dim mirror and the vanity light.. im hardwiring my radar detector if that helps. Thanks

 

Can nobody answer my fuel filter question I asked earlier on page 6 i believe?

 

On my browser, I'm only on page 5 right now. Please repost your question down here.

 

Good Q - all I found on the FAQs/How-Tos was wiring the detector via running wire under the A-pillar and tapping into 12V somewhere under the dash. I guess no one in that thread had an auto-dim mirror.

I have that mirror, but I live in the Draconian state of Virginia, where the state flagrantly violates the Federal Communications Act of 1935 (or was it 1933?) by prohibiting people in Virginia from receiving police radar signals, so I have no radar detector, nor any hope of ever having one...

 

I'm happy we don't have them. I'm going 80 on the highway and people are still blowing by me. I always hope those people get tickets

 

pm soonerfan, he has his radar hardwired and hidden in the sunglass holder. Oh, and he lives in VA (but has Oklahoma tags)

 

Crossbar that holds trunk open somehow popped off.....easiest way to get this fixed?

 

"Pop" it back on

 

Not as easy as it sounds!

 

ok so i wanna trade my car for a maxima se. question is...what is the difference from a 2000, 2001, 2002 and a 2003 se.

i know some people will say to just jump on a 2003. but i still have a lease on my car and i will be trading it in to nissan so i need to know why the big price difference. like can i jump on a 2001 instead of a 2003. is the body different in all 4 yrs?? the engine?? what makes them so different other than the years.
thanks!
