The results are here:

I am wondering if this will fit a 5th gen. Anyone know the differences in the enginebay area between 4th and 5th gen?

Interesting that the video made it on to Maximaproduct.com without my knowledge.

Luke (gtr_rider) needed a mirror for the video so I put it up on my site. Will put your name in the video if you want me to. Not meant to steal it or anything. But by the time I put it up, nobody was really asking for the video anymore. (And besides, other things popped up in life and I sorta forgot about it.)

And I see people are still visiting my site... gotta update soon.

Newman,

are you talking about putting the turbos on your 2002? that is cool, but check that clutch at the door man. I have to say I am soarly dissapointed with this new clutch design. I wish they would have kept the classic clutch. Mine has been in the shop three times for clutch now, and I just drive normal....

The Service manager said that the clutch doesn't have a spring, the spring is supposedly on the flywheel now, and all that crap wprks together somehow to make a new system. He said that the flywheel is like $1600, that is why they did just replace my flywheel, they inspected it and decided it was fine. I guess if they send one back to Nissan they have to pay for it.

So the real question is who is going to come out with a new setup for the 2002 Max clutch???

Grinding sound

Someone was saying the turbo sounded like it was grinding when you had the hood open, like the ball bearings were bad or something. Does the turbo always sound so harsh?
