Better keep it well under 1500 lbs.
Quote: I have a 2003 Maxima and recently installed a trailer hitch. Does anyonehave any idea what the maximum towing capacity is? I am trying to keep it below 1500 lbs.
1000 lb max towing load/110 lb max tongue load. Page 9-17 of the owners manual.

Aside from the interior trim and maybe memory seat buttons, I don't see why not. The only body differences between the A33 and A33B are the front bumper and grill. Everything else should transfer just fine.

Can somebody get me the part number for the splashguard/engine undercover plastic piece for the passenger side. Its not the fender cover, I know what that is. There should be two of these pieces, driver & passenger-side. I just need the one. Is there a factory parts list PDF? I have the service manual PDF.

I prefer to order from everythingnissan.com if available.

Correct, there should be 3 or so of those plastic popout pins that start at the bottom of the front bumper and go to about where the oil filter is.

I think the people that clean my underground parking got rid of it while I had it off.

Bingo is right! #10 is the correct piece.

Where did you get that picture from? Service Manual?

I just installed a new alternator and would be nice to get that piece keep out the water (and snow).

Exhaust Question
I'm not very "mechanically inclined" so I am very limited on knowledge. I've been looking for a Cat Back Exhaust for a 2002 Maxima GLE. All I've been able to find online really are for the SE edition only I.E Greddy. Does anyone know of or where I can find any decent performance Cat Back Exhausts for the GLE. The normal stock parts are running about 750 from my mechanic but I've been seeing alot of after market systems for $350-$600, unfortunatly have yet to find one that is said to fit the GLE model.

Theres no structural difference between SE, GLE, GLX models. Differences in them are stiffer suspension and add on options.

There are a lot of Catbacks out there for our cars, I would say that probably the best would be Cattman so far as fit finish and performance (even though you're not going to get any 'real' numbers just from a catback alone)

Exhaust Question Again
If I were to purchase this Cat Back Exhaust From Megan Racing
http://www.wesellcarparts.com/store/...idproduct=5078
would I need to replace anything else or would that fit on my car being as everything else
is pretty much stock. I've been seeing alot of ppl talking about "Y pipes" and I'm not sure
if that would have anything to do with the exhaust. I just don't wanna go and buy this exhaust to find out
later I have to then replace other things or that I had just wasted money on a product I couldn't use.

I got the picture from everythingnissan.com. The link on this page should put you directly to the piece you need to purchase..... I think it was $34.21 for the part.

What Model is my Maxima?
I bought a 2001 Maxima just about a couple of weeks ago, but I don't know what model it is, SE, etc. Is there a way to find out?

Does it have an emblem on the bottom right portion of the trunk? It'll say 'SE', 'GLE' or 'GXE'

Off the top of my head, the easiest way to tell would be the wheels. If they are the 17" 7 spoke wheels, it's an SE. If they are the 16" 5 spoke, it's a GLE. I think the other wheel came on both the GLE and the GXE

I guess it must be either a GLE or GXE. Thanks.
