Has anyone thought about about making their own custom transmission cooler to there Maxima? If someone were to add a tranny cooler then they would also possibly be able to turbo there maxima without any problems.. What do you guys think of that idea?

I think it's a great idea and want to do it lol... No cash now though.

Ya same here.. I am just wondering why no one else has attempted to do this... Seems like it should be pretty easy really all you need is a universal tranny cooler and then custom build your own turbo for it. I think that the car should hold up fine with that.

do you really need all those horsepower? i mean 290hp is enough dont you think? btw has anyone push the engine to 200 or close to that range?

what do you mean 200?

MPH??

Kmoney, was that a serious question?

I think he meant to say 300 HP or who knows.

What is it with all of the horrible grammar on this board? Did they stop teaching proper English and writing in the Northeast?

No I think he meant if anyone has hit 200mph, but he said isn't 290hp enough. That's crazy its not like its 290 whp.

Contact speedforceracing, they have turbo'ed an cvt altima and have fitted it with a transmission cooler.

sorry guys it was a mistake. i meant to say 200mph. i was using my phone and it turned off on me before i could correct it.. what i was trying to say is the power this max has is enough don't you think?

I think something that could be done fairly easily and provide good results is to make an adapter plate and put on a Rotrex blower. it is self contained needs no oil feed and most likely in our engine configuration would make around 40-50% more hp than factory how does an extra 110-145 more hp strike you? Hell you could even go more wild and do twin rotrex like they do the skyline. Which to me is the ultimate twin supercharged and twin turbo'd yes I take it.
I have a fondness for these Rotrex blowers, they are quiet, they are high efficient up to 98%, they are small below is there biggest models the C30s, and for moderate horsepower applications they make good power, and most vehicles who install these blowers tend to see better gas mileage if they can keep there foot off the throttle :-)

^ now that is interesting.^

why not buy one of those electric superchargers off ebay "echarger" or "ramcharger" for 1-4 psi increases?lol j/k I do like the rotrex Idea alot!

Looks like we know who we need to talk to so we can get a kit built.

here's the actual video link

tranny coolers are not model specific; just "size" specific. as all they require you to do is reroute the tranny lines going to the radiator to an aux "smaller" radiator and then back to the tranny.
i had them installed when i had my M45 and my old 94 max automatic. very worthwhile upgrade.
