Xterra or Frontier supercharger..
I read a thread a while back on this but have searched and now found nothin. Since these are like the only two Nissans up to date that are supercharged from the factory, and considering their both V-6's (if that means anything 
), how hard do you think it would be to mount one of those to a Maxima ? I know some custom fabrication would be goin on, but like if someone got that supercharger off a wrecked frontier/xterra at a junk yard...I think it would be pretty interesting to see if it could work.
What do yall think?

Re: Xterra or Frontier supercharger..
don't they use roots-type blowers??? if so you'd spend less by just getting the Vortech! mounting and fitting a roots on the Maxima might present some problems.....

first of all they have VG motors which have a different intake manifold than a VQ so it wont bolt up without some major cutting and welding of the charger and lower intake manifold, Then you have the problem that you need the proper t body. Plus I doubt the charger on them is capable of any decent performance gains like the stillen.

I am a master of fabrication Ive done a turbo on a rabbit conv. and then another on a rabbit GTI with a front mount intercooler and believe me they were a pain to run tubing because they were 8 valves and have exhaust and intake on the same side of the head. I know it wont be easy but I dont mind the challenge. Just wait and see!
