How much would it cost to rebuild a 95 motor..

 

Alot more than you could just buy another one for, that's for sure.

I have a 1990 maxima it cost me $1700 to rebuild it. I wonder, if there something I could have done to give it more horse power scents he's taking it apart and all. Any one have any sugg?

 

If he has 1700$ for his vq rebuild I'd drop a 3.5 in with that money.

 

For real, if its blown man drop a 3.5 in there. Will cost less than a rebuild and give you a ****load more power.

 

How much stuff would I have to change to get the 3.5?

 

We 3rd gens cant swap in a 3.5 with $1700. Unless you do the work your self. only 1 person has done a VQ30DE swap and even it may not be real but alot of people think it is. It would be VERY VERY hard.

I guess Ill stick with what i got

 

used VQ35 > rebuilt OEM spec VQ30

WHat's wrong with your current engine?

 

i have to replace with a salvaged 3.0 engine. it turns out to be shot. So I ended up rebuilding the 500 dollars motor with an extra cost of 2250 bucks. my total is about 2800 altogether. if i'd known about this crap, i'd went with tilley's 3.5L swap-in.

well, it's all too late.

so you think about it. rebuilding can cost a lot more if there are other problems along the way...

 

GOOD NEWS: Got the engine put in it seems to be running ok.
Bad news: This guy have broken my rad, cut my flex pipe, mess up my front shocks, broke the front grill that says nissian. I was MAH, he up there telling me it was like that when he go it. This guy was causing Mass Destruction. I think I need to call Bush on his a..

 

I think I rebuilt my vg for under 1,000, and that was with VG30DE rods and pistons.

 

whats your CR now? ever get it tuned or dyno'd?

More good news my cat. coverter is turning red hot and i just put a new one on what could cause that? Im thinging something with the engine hes going to have to fix. The old engine dont do that.

 

Engine misfiring can result in unburned fuel lighting off when it hits the cat. You should be able to hear or feel the engine misfiring though.

Does OBD-I detect misfires ?

 

I can hear it when I hit the gas.
I havn't check the OBD I was going to take the car back to hit tommorow
What can I do about it, if it is unburned fuel?

 

dont know yet, I didnt get that far. I had to replace the T-belt and the T-belt tensioner stud that broke. and now working on replacing the valves. kinda sucks when it's -2 outside, and I wanna work on my car.
