Ummm okay! First gen maxima/810 chassis. RWD, Z independant rear suspension, Z engine that the L28-T that bolts in. Mikey already know one that went 11.9 in the 1/4 mile



Check the prices. They don't give them away. Just because they have alot of them, doesn't mean they are cheap. You DO know that the Japanese rarely even changed their oil in their car right? [/B]
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eb...912947&r=0&t=0

the buy it now price is $2500, WITH ECU, manny tranny and motor. And this is the FIRST engine i found on ebay with a few keystrokes.

If you want to throw in another car into the equation then I will throw into the equation a Foxbody chassis'd mustang, with a built 5.0 L engine which can run 11's with about $7000 of work with just about every part avaiable from your local summit catalog.

Some cars look like they WERE made for the female driver and the Lexus ES or the Benz C Class is one of those cars.

yeah, thats what I'm saying!!! I think turbochargers.com has 'em for $450 of course you gotta figure in the ext. wastegate too for another $200 or so, but shiet thats still only $7-750 shipped probably!


I really should go back outside and finish the injectors shouldn't I!
sorry it's $2600 with no turbo.
Kit 1 - non-intercooled $3500
Kit 2 - with Spearco intercooler and piping $4200

Changes 3/12/2002

1. Shipping is now included to lower 48 States
2. You can subtract $900 if you provide your own wastegate and turbo.
--------

Bottom line is it's cheaper to turbo a s13/14 than a maxima (VQ,VE)

$2500. Okay. I said OVER $1500 plus ecu. Are you not just agreeing with me?? lol

Okay I'll throw in another car even cheaper just for you. A 1972 Pinto for about $10 + a Mustang SVO motor boosted to the hilt would run faster than your Summit mustang. For alot less than $7 grand in that motor. Probably 1/2 that.

What's your point? I could put any number of motors in my old 510 and kill whatever. Sr20det, FJ20-T, CA18-T, VG30-t, 12A turbo, 13b turbo, 3 rotor would probably fit, Buick all alumin V6. Why not just put a high compression all aluminum V8 into the 1970 240z chassis? 400-500 easy na hp + 2300-2400lbs = wicked ride. Add a Ford 9" rear end and a high 10 sec or low 11 sec ride is right there.

I do recall a broke down Silvia(swap) at Carlisle that couldn't crank, hehe. If there is a stock 240 out there that can beat my stock 2k max, I would like to see it. After I am done beating on you I will imprint a GT-R emblem on your forehead and send you on your way. And I think I have seen more riced out 240s than maximas. Oh yeah at least Nissan still makes our cars in the US, haha.

Have a nice day!!

ALSO, at least maxima owners don't have to do a motor swap to make our cars somewhat fast without alot of mods, hehe.
