Why not just go to Nissan and buy a brand new MOTOR, should be less than 4,000 but if you are doing a rebuild at 100k, might as well slap some forged pistons and rods, cams and what not, Im at a 165,000 miles with a oil burner Im sure you are good for another 100k easily with that motor, so do your 100k Tune Up and keep rolling......

 

hes making a "lazy racecar"

 

www.courtesyparts.com to get your prices on parts.

 

nice website, 6k for a brand new bare block, mighty expensive, but nice to know either way, well ok, i'll see what I can do. For everything looks like it would be less expensive to just buy a brand new motor from Nissan.

Well from the looks of the pricing for brand new parts, it probably would be easier to just buy a brand new motor from Nissan and put it in, with a auto transmission.

O well, Ill see what I can do.

 

like dude whats up wit you not to be disrespectful but you truly dont know whta you doing or getting into for the money you going to spend to stay stock is a complete waste of ****ing money the money you are going to be spending to do a whole lot of nothing is not worth the time and effort lets say you go ahead and do your what ever u want to call it build and you complete it but you fall into a money crisis to the point you have to sell your car you will never sell any of you money back nor will the value of you car increase if it does prolly a max of 1000 bucks which isnt **** compare to what u gonna be spend..dude u can mod your car and still keep it quite ever performance part doesnt make your car loud listen to the guys here half of them know what they are talking bout you already have a nice car now make it ****ing SICK make this build worth it thats all i have to say

 

Stop asking stupid questions about quotes... if you want to find the price call Nissan dealers around you... but honestly based on your comments so far I don't thing you should attempt on even removing a bolt on your car... so what you wanna spend 12K on parts for a car that has already had 100K plus on it so be it, its your money its your life. I don't think you have the smallest idea on what amount of work will be involved for all the parts you wanna replace... countless hours of frustration, busted knuckles and tears so you can have a reliable daily driver... I do understand the idea and need for having a reliable car but you are just being stupid and immature... So what you gonna drive while you are preforming the "rebuilt" of your maxima? Instead of staring threads like this do a research online on why engines fail? How to fully rebuild an engine from scratch and so on... EDUCATE YOURSELF!!! I know I said that before and many other members here told you: "you have 100K on your engine... that is basically a 3rd of its life"
Do you know how many people here with 5th gen wished they had a car with 100K on it???

You wanna have a reliable daily that is turn key ready?Here buy this:

At this point this is lowest mileage Maxima out there...

 

Maxboy,thanks for the laugh this morning.

 

*long winded explanation of what i'm doing and why right here.. GTF out of my thread...

 

 

Roll it till you hit 200k, are you going to do any aftermarket parts like Headers Exhaust or anything....

 

Mods? can we kick these flamers out of my thread, they serve no purpose towards the topic. The topic, is how much for brand new: (just the parts, I want to install everything myself)

- VQ30DE-K Engine
- 2001 auto transmission out of a GLE.
- BOSE premium sound /w subwoofer package
- Fresh paint
- New mats and carpet
- GLE 7 spoke rims /w tires
- HID lights and fogs
- SE suspension
- Navigation?
- SE body kit?

Maybe some rims, sound, tint, but probably no mods.

If we can get an accurate quote from someone who works at Nissan that would be great. This is most of what I need to restore my car.

 

I am at a loss for words at this point

 

sounds like to me that you need to get off here and make some phone calls.

 

So this car is just your daily ride, gets you from Point A to Point B, if so no need for engine or transmission, if you are under a 100k miles, SE Suspension upgrade Coilovers, Bose sound **** thats a waste same money better system like Kicker, Rockford Fosgate, or whatever, Navigation part of the system in Dash Kenwood, Pioneer, Alpine. And SE dont come with a body kit maybe you talking about a AE Body Kit Rims get some Infiniti G35 7 spokes, paint find a local show and get a price, carpet clean the **** and order new mats.....

 

For real this is Maxima.org, not CourtesyNissan assistants......

 

Just trying to get the car back to brand new, everything factory, thats the goal here. I tried calling Nissan, and the guy was not able to give me a price quote on a new engine, just a rebuilt one. Thats why i'm asking on here. Just emailed courtesy Nissan and hopefully they give me a accurate price quote for the parts and i'll post the total if I can get one out of them.

 

Threads still open???

 

im telling u guys its looks like he has nobody to talk to in the real world.maybe no friends so hes on the org asking the same type of questions in different ways.going in circles. the BAN THIS S***

 

GTF out my thread.. do you just sit there all day online with your little group of friends and find some dude with a low post count and start bashing him? e-jump someone else..
get a life..

 

.....yea because your long winded explanation as to what the **** you're trying to do makes a whole lot more sense...

...complaining about 6k for a new engine block and then turns around and wants to dump 12k into a 13 year old car...

i wish the org. had a smack down thread.

 

I've got to say the org has really turned to sh|t.

Anywho, you should convert to Direct Exhaust Injection.

 

are you guys seriously having a hard time figuring out what it is i'm trying to do to my car? how many days will it take for you to figure it out? or have you finally figured it out, but now your just sitting there day in and day out and trying to increase your e-gangsta..

i'm out of this thread, don't feel like getting banned because some e-thugs came and it took them a week to figure out what the hell restoring a car means, and they felt stupid and tried to cover there tracks and got caught, not one person is able to give me a price quote out of the 300 people that viewed this thread.. hahahaha

raise up your e-hammers again, and start a movement to ban lazy for trying to figure out the cost of restoring his Maxima to brand new. If the stupidity in this thread increases one more percent, it will be uninhabitable by human beings old enough to read.

 

what would be the best 3.5 motor to get? like out of wat year car? i hear **** bout them all and i just want the easyerest i no if i get the 02-04 they burn oil like a ***** so i was thinkin about an 06 3.5 with my 5speed tranny for now and maybe get a 6 speed in time. or im thinking about building my old motor from my old car and turboing it. wat u guys think

 

What kind of car do you have? saw under your name you have a 96 Nissan Maxima, if you mean for this car, then the best thing to do would be to just give it a tune up, balance it, overhaul it if you have to and do the simple bolt ons. If you must do a swap, then I guess the 'best' thing to do would be to get the newest engine with the most hp out of a 7th gen and attempt to swap it in.

 

u can get any motor from 02-08 less miles the better,or buy the cheapest block u can find and rebuilt it (only) if ur doing 3.0 timing,also if u go the low mileage route u should change all the seals and get some vitton valve seals its for oil burning.better than oem absorbs more heat.

 

LOL

 

Trust me theirs nobody trying to be e gangtas or bashing cause of low count,u just ask these dumb questions.like ur playing games with the org.

 

How much would it cost me to return my 2003 Infiniti G35 sedan back to a 2001 nissan maxima?

 

Fiddy Dolla $$$

 

With all OEM parts from Nissan? Likely they will pay you for that.....

 

So sick!! Thanks guys!!


Seeeee OP, all you have to do is ask a simple, straight forward, reasonable question and you get immediate, irrefutable answers!!

Take notes.

 

Ok but seriously why not just shop around for a low mileage auto se (they won't be that hard to find) And buy it then sell your maxima?

 

Because I wouldn't learn how to tune/overhaul/balance an engine by just buying a new car..

BTW, the guys from courtesy NIssan are working on my price list. It's taking a long *** time though...

*by now if you haven't figured out im trying to restore my car to brand new to learn how to restore a car to brand new your dumb. Otherwise, you figured it out and are just being plain gay and upping your post count like the true e-thug you really are inside.. ahahaha

 

....i swear this guy is comedy. talking about restoring a 13 year maxima. by the way he talks, you'd think we're all missing out on a great restoration adventure to which at the end, wind up with the maxima of all maxima's.

now if your talking about restoring a classic mustang, 70's datsun 710, 60-70's camaro, im totally on board because in the end you're left with a car that has value, appeal and sense of accomplishment.

OPs logic is the same as dumping $1000 into a Pentium 1 computer just to "learn" how to work on a computer.

 

^^^^ exactly... Like I said, if you wanna play with engines start with a bike and not ur daily driver lol. Not only is it a v6 its fwd v6 which makes it gay to work on.

learn.on a pos first. Please post rebuild pics if you're actually goin through with this

 

lol

 

Or go to School for it to get some Knowledge of how to do it, I like cars and do majority of the work myself, but try and Rebuild a Engine, something I will be doing for the first time Hell No....

 

This guy wont rebuilding any in 2 to 4 weeks u will see this with another stupid that ran threw his mind, and as usual people will answer his as we all did in the begening of this thread but then u just keeping adding stupid ? after and then u get flamed.
