Found out my friend has to have her engine replaced on her 2002 Maxima... She doesn't have the money to spend right now on this engine (was told by her that the mechanics said about a couple thousand). Any suggestions or advice? Thanks for the help. She is located in Bronyx, NY. She has told me that NY takes advantage of women and their cars so...would like any help on this problem. Thanks

 

Contact Aackshun in the Ghustle thread he works for NissanUnlimited he can get you a good price on an engine

 

 

Or you could just call around to local junk yards. Any transverse mounted VQ35 will work in her car. I have an engine from a 2007 Quest minivan in my car now. Should be able to locate a good used engine for $1000 or less. Then you just need to find a mechanic to put it in for you.

 

I have one from a 2006 murano in my 2002....

 

i have a 05 maxima engine with 46k in my 02 now and i got lucky i paid 300 for the engine and auto tranny because my friend had wrecked his 05

 

I hope she got more than one opinion. Oh, look, it's a woman and NATs is broke, better tell her it's the engine.

Although, I guess we can speculate on why it died...
