i got rid of my 3.0 so i came across a 70k 3.5 motor from a 2003 automatic maxima it was a steal anyway decided to change a few things before dropping the motor in what u think
i really don't have a lot of room to work i want to start getting rid of some things
i will change my oem crank pully to light weight stillen pulley
i also did the tensioner and water pump. the tensioner was bad because it rattle when engine is cold and stop when it warm up not really sure though if that the problem
torque converter out dont need this why so heavy you make car slow well i keep you guys posted

 

J/K - Nice upgrade. Good luck!

 

You disassembled tons of crap!

 

I see FAIL starting

 

Take it easy bro dont mark me so quick im just doing a swap and a little tune up before i put the motor in plus the car wasnt runing to begin with the 3.0 motor went from too much sexing i gave her so just enjoy the pic and be cool and keep the max game alive

Thk man

Yeah man i broke a lot of srews that was seize up not to big of a problem but it all good my car is in really good shape for 2001 not bad love to have it runing strong again nissan forever thk

 

^ SMH..can't wait until the ES mount get done so we can get this motor in and then start on the turbo setup.The turbo and the BIG brakes will be the icing on the cake

 

so your just swapping the motor in? and you expect it to run?you do understand there is some issues there correct!

 

did the OP swap timing covers????? didnt really see

 

why are you putting new tensioners on the 3.5 timing stuff, that aint gonna work with the 3.0s electronics.

 

nope lol...... looks like 3.5 timing covers lol..... is the going to be a full swap???

 

YES! he's well aware of some issue to correct before completely putting the motor in.The motor is not fully ready to go in as yet.

Yes sir

 

I am not going a 3.5 timing swap im doing a full swap with ecu and harness

I am not doing a 3.5 timing swap im doing a full swap with ecu and harness

Come on u guy dont knoe what a 3.5 motor look like the 3.0 and 3.5 engine look complete diff look at the intake
