After owning 4 automatic Maximas/I30/I35 finally got my hands on this one owner, rust-free CA 2001 SE AE speed. Looking forward to driving her to the next cars and coffee.

She came with few goodies as well:

Volk 2 piece 19" wheels
Unorthodox crankshaft pulley
Stillen pop-charger
Cattman strut tower brace
Addco rear sway bar

looks great with that kind of mileage, guy sure took care of it
I replaced the terrible brake hardware up front with 6th gen maxima stuff, bolts right on, definitely worth the investment (I got all mine almost new from a junk yard for cheap)

Thanks! I'll look into the 6th Gen brake upgrade.

almost bolts right on. 00/01 caliper bracket bolts are smaller so the knuckle holes will need to be drilled out.

2005 maxima > 2001 i30t
front rotors, pads, calipers, support bracket, bolts
everything fit perfectly (you must have at least 17in wheels to have enough room)
there was definitely no drilling, installation was very easy
