Still looking for a 3.5 from an 02-03 max for a swap, found one for $995. It's from an 03 max with 74000 miles on it, is this a good buy? any advice from others?

 

you can find them for cheaper. i searched and found one for $500 with 17k on it.


what are you planning on doing? 3.5 with 3.0 ecu?

 

Yea, that seems kind of high for the miles. I'd keep searching. The only problem with buying one of these engines used is you might end up with an oil burner like mine. I wish I could tell you how to check for that before buying it, but....

 

geez. I was gunna jump at that price. Around here, I dont know of any place less than 1200$ for one with twice that many miles. Plus they are all out of the 2002's

 

wow kinda high, but i guess its where you live. you can get a 3.5 here in md for under $600 with lower miles. i heard some people gettin their 3.5 for $400 in NY.. shop some more

 

Check here and find one for a lot cheaper. Plenty to choose from. http://car-part.com/

 

Still not positive, I'm still doing research of what setup would be the best for the money I'd have to spend

 

Wow, nice website! Seems to have much better deals lol

 

Guy here in NC has one with Tranny( Auto) with ECU out of a 03 MAxima TE. he wants 700 and it has 64k on it.

 

the biggest problem is that independent people rarely want to ship items like that.

 

That's what Uship.com is for Cost me less then $300 to have an engine sent from NC to Mass

 

I bought one off car-part for 300 dollars w\73k on it. Runs like a champ

 

of course I have zero interest in an auto lol
