So i blew the 3.0 and decided to get the 3.5!!

I wonder if its the worlds first 3.5 swaped AE

 

Good job, how much did it cost you?

 

nice!

if you do the 5.5thgen headlight, no one would know you are a 2k1

 

like araund 2300$

 

how fast is it? what kind of 3.5 engine did u put? from 5.5 gen or 6?

 

its the same either way.

 

im preety sure im realy low 14s to high 13s. I say that because of the cars that I have raced.

its from a 2002 altima.

 

Nice Hockey Stick Dude. Lolz
Hope you installed Headers while it was out!!!!!!!

 

its the first i've heard of... was this the full swap or just the motor??? how hard was it??? in for dyno

 

no headers right now. just the stock 5.0gen header and y-pipe. I didnt have enouph money and i needed my car back asap.

 

well it was kind of a full swap. lol i blew the tranny too so i needed a new one but i still got a 5speed tranny.

I guess it is the same as a 4gen. I didnt do the swap. I paid chillin to do the swap for me. he is a member of the org also. you can ask him. lol

 

I dont think he was talking about full in terms of motor and tranny. I believe he meant full as far as ECU and vq35 timing equipment.

It's not a full swap. I see a throttle cable by the way.

 

oh nah im using my 3.0 ecu and everything.

 

high 13s with the way it is right now is not likely. Not even real 5.5gens stock are doing high 13s

 

I dont belive it either but its running faster than a stock 5.5 gen.

I have raced two high 13sec cars and it was preety much even. im even with the 350z also.

 

you can run a car on the street that runs those times at the track. But that doesnt mean you run that time at the track too.

Track conditions are way different. I'm not saying you cant though. I would say you'll run a mid 14 second ET with the factory exhaust manifolds.

 

oh i know that its different from the streets then the track.

im running with a open y-pipe right now.

 

How long did it take him to install the motor?

 

like a week beacause we were waiting on some things

 

what about your swap makes you faster than a stock 5.5? Just b/c you raced 2 high 13sec cars on the street doesnt mean your car will do the 1/4 in high 13s. Your gearing is also different than 5.5 gens. Keep that in mind.

 

my driving i guess. we will just see. I got a friend who has a 5.5 gen 6speed and he just put a new clutch and flywheel.

 

nice work.

looks like its time for some hood struts... lol

 

Not to mention no CVTC sprocket housings, nor VIAS canister / solenoid.


Nice work nonetheless.

 

what tranny are you using?

 

i would love to see the track times... low 14's would be nice.. 13's would be amazing

 

I've been wanting to do this to my AE, but not until I get my Cobra back on the road.

 

just wondering, wouldn't you have more power if you used the 3.5 ecu and everything.

 

are there no precats in the 3.0 manifolds like there are in the 3.5? or are they identical.. maybe this could be some of the difference.. just a thought..also the difference in feel could have to do with the 1 less gear affecting FD ratio blah blah..

 

Did the 5.5s only have 6 speeds? No 5 speeds?

 

5.5 gen - Only 4AT & 6MT.
Lots of info re: A33 trannys http://forums.maxima.org/5th-generat...s-5a-5-5g.html

Yes, you would.
My guess would be the A335MT.

 

very nice

 

any probs yet? check engine light?

 

I think Chillin told me it was a A32 5MT

 

The the only difference is a minor change in the FD, all other gears are the same.

 

yup its from a 4gen

 

yes, and more money.

 

the only precats on the 3.0 is the two cats in the Y-pipe. one in the front and one in the back. but it doesnt have the big *** one that the 5.5 gens come with.

 

no and yes. my car turns out to be a cali apec so there were some sensors that the 3.0 had and now im not using on the 3.5 so i do have a check engine light.

 

More power & more money

 

If its a 4th gen tranny then you no longer have an LSD tranny.
