its not really a maxima but she has the heart of one.
a 98 sentra mixed with maxima parts is a sextima
first day home

 

 

 

 

 

OK, this is out-with-the-k24 and in with the VQ30 wirh a turbo??? And it fits?

Dang, this is like exciting - I've been wondering what to do with my old 3.5 when the 3.5 Cosworth build is installed in my '99 Max.

 

it was a 1.6 ga16 lol big improvement.
im getting there almost i just have wiring todo. and a couple more things to mount.
just to give you a heads up you need the maxima crossmember. you need to make a passenger side mount and you can prolly use a altima tranny mount.
you also need the spec v spindles umm thats all i got so far... oh yea you need the axles for a spec v and the axle support for a spec v.
lol its alot of work but its so worth it.

 

OK - just wiring..... I don't know anything about Sentras - what is a Spec V ???

 

wow





that is all

 

Looks like you got the turbo from a junkyard with a hacksaw.

What transmission are you using?

 

im dizzy from the blurrinesSSsSsssSSsssSSSSsssSsSssss

 

I wish i stilll had my sentra i had the same idea just never got around to it. This should be a nasty combination on the track.

 

man when i first pulled that engine it was like 4 in the morning yo
it was the first time i took a engine out. i was tired gimme a break...
that turbo was pulled from something ii onno it was cut out with a torch
im almost pretty sure it wont spool.
for those who wonder why go on google and type garrett tv7512
this thing is a beast. i beleave it came off a firetruck with a detroit 500 engine.
the exhust outlet is 6 inches

 

after you get it running you should consider doing a 00vi swap for more power, and you should def do your headers and ypipe asap

 

yea all that is in the works,
i just wanna get it running for like 3 months first then go and add stuff

 

I have a 00vi setup for sale if you need it. Nice project btw. I want to do something similar with a 94 sentra.

 

Looking good! Going to be a sleeper car definitely!
