The motor mounts quicken it up a bit. There is alot of work on the tranny that could be done as well. The software could be tightened up, valve job, add a tranny cooler and permenantly unhook the resistor.

 

Guys Guiys Guys.......we are not going to be building a race car that runs 9's.......LOL!! Any additional tranny work is not needed.....now it all depends on how often one would spool up the sc and for how long the stock tranny will last......this is a proto being built that is safe for the car and ready to beat some vett *** when needed, i will not and do not want to build a track car.....too much involved to do that. But yes if you you felt the need to tune and add more boost to it and make it a track car then yes maybe.....just maybe you would have to do some internal tranny work ...but the way it stands now is this will be a bolt on piece and will perform very well for a very long time without any other mods. Lets not get all the other org members who may not understand this but wants one all confused.

Since you have an auto and you're getting a SC, time will tell if the tranny holds up.

 

Okay......not to be rude man but have you done your reasearch on this?......lets take the 350 z with an auto.....procharger made a kit for it within the first year of production of the car......with that said they still have their prototype and it still performs great. There have been no know tranny problems for any of the Nissan products....why is it that you seem to be beating up the auto?...are you an auto?........


chef

 

Don't ever compare a 350Z to a Maxima. The drivetrain is completely different. They may both SAY VQ35 inside but the engines and transmissions are different in many ways.

First, even with my modifications the stock tranny doesn't put the power to the ground efficiently. Like I said in other posts, the 1-2 shift is ok but the 2-3 shift at WOT or near WOT is very slow.

Second, I happen to know someone who has a 5th Gen SC auto and has gone all the way up to a fully built auto tranny($5000+) and STILL has problems. He recently lost his 2nd gear.

Third, I think you need to "line up" with a 350Z, G35, or 6spd Maxima(5th or 6th Gen) and see what your tranny does. You'll see what I mean.

 

Thanks for your information!! It will be helpful in the project! And you dont need to tell me that there are differences between the two cars.........i know already! It was a lame example. I am not about to get into a p!ssing match about this and that. You stated what you stated and i stated what i stated.....we will just have to wait and see....and if for some unknown reason that my tranny shells then i will publicly appologize to you.....but untill then please be assured that plenty of research has gone into this project and we are knowingly entering into a relm of the mechanically unknow but we are good so far with the reseach results. both done by myself and the engineering dept at procharger.


Thanks,
Chef

 

No need to apologize to me! lol! I'm not trying to discourage anyone from a supercharger, he!!, I want one! I just wanted to tell my experience with the auto so you they can take that into consideration. I have reason to believe through a couple of sources that the RE5F22A tranny is rated at only 243ft/lb of torque. I'm pushing 258ft/lb with my mods alone. The auto tranny is made by a company called Aisin Seiki Co in Japan. So yeah, I have done a little research.

 

looks good

 

How can I sell my wife on this????

 

I got dibs


Is tranny spec # rating (243), rated at the crank or wheel?

 

Not exactly sure but my guess is the transmission is rated at the factory on a machine, that would be at the torque converter.

 

6'500 dang thats alot then you gotta add the labor sheesh thats half a down payment for a nice little studio.

 

read the whole thread, it's not that much.

 

You know I've been thinkin'. A 6th Gen Maxima, 6spd with a SC kit on street tires will probably run high 12s(12.9-12.7) in the quarter. Most people will probably see low to mid 13's.

11's? No way.

 

Good luck with the project - should be very interesting Would like to see some of my former max brethren boosting the speed on the max.

 

I would think it should touch high 12's without much issue.

 

Man i cant wait to see this done....i do have a auto but if it doesnt mess up his i will be getting one

I might just have to dip into my saving account

 

I would like to see our maxes finally whooping your FX.

Kamski

 

The FX is a very quick and nimble beast for an SUV but I think the max is pretty close - only thing faster in the SUV category is the Jeep SRT-8 (0-60 4.6sec WOW) or a Porsche Cayenne Turbo (@$100K pricetag OUCH!)

BTW We have a Whipple twin screw SC that is getting the finishing touches. Numbers are close to 450hp That should give the $100K Cayenne Turbo a serious scare

Whipple Twin Screw SC

 

Jesus murphy!!! I wonder if its possible to shoe horn the FX engine into the maxima? Cause the whould be FOOSE pimp.

Kamski

 

Man could you imagine the friggen power if the max frame could handle the
FX45 VK engine 4.5 V8 with AWD? MMmmm - the max would be a Euro sports killer...

 

Yeah thast a pissoff, man, the Murano has AWD... even the new mazdapseed6 has AWD. WTH stopped the design team from adding AWD to the maxima. I mean there is already enough space under there.

I just want my car to have more ***** but it already looses traction easily with only a CAI, UDP and MMI. With AWD I bet i could do med to high 5s to 60 in her.

Kam

 

But I want a supercharger now!

 

stop thinking, i smell the wood burning over here. there is an NA 5.5 gen 6spd that IIRC ran 12.6. a SC 6th gen with boltons..ie headers, C/B intake should be DEEP in the 12s if not high 11s on some slicks

 

That's 2 tenths faster than the fastest 5.5 6MT N/A on here.

 

i was talking about SR20DEN, and im not 100% sure of his times...

 

any update?

 

I don't think it happened....since this was 4 years ago

 

Yes, he got rid of the maxima three years ago...

 

subscribing

 

the above quote will help you with info about this build....

 

I need an opinion, what do yall think of Custom Maxima exhaust and headers?

 

I think instead of exhaust and headers you get a custom super charger since this is what the thread is about... Lol

hey dan. . Want me to lock this up?? Lol

 

DUDE WHAT FRONT BUMPER IS THAT I LOVE HOW IT LOOKS BUT I DONT EVEN KNOW WHERE TO FIND ONE PLEASE HELP

 

If your refering to the OP ( 1st post ) bumper , its the RLM bumper.

or concept bumper , check bodykits.com and you might be able to find them still.

this thread needs to be closed , There isnt enough interst for a supercharger ..

for a company to do one , the price would be around 4,000 and how many 6th genners are acutally going to jusify spending 4gs on S/C ?

let alone about turbo 6th genners out there ? ( probally 4 )

 

and I'm number #1

 

turbo is way more fesable than a supercharger. the mounting brackets for SCs have to be SPOT ON. i.e. if a a32 SC plate has like a pulley mount slightly uneven throws off the belt again and again.

Turbo can be piped together. and it doesnt have to be perfect bends in the pipe to a "1mm" accuracy. It would be great but still gets the job done if not
and aftermarket headers are avail to chop and screw to make it work.

Ive seen some 3.5 SCed. 4thgens.. how come you guys cant go the same route..

Ninja edit: ahh timinig case transfer.. gotcha...

 

 

why isnt this closed ? there isnt any further discussion on this ?

 

Wow..........this is an OLD thread. Plus........is a supercharger even possible for 6th gens?
