TW: 1993 Maxima SE 5MT
Well it's been a nice 2 years of ownership but it's kind of time to move on. I am looking at something else right now that requires me to sell one of my cars. So I have to think about selling my maxima. I used to post alot but I haven't lately. Over the past two years I've driven my maxima about 12k miles which means it has about 145k on the clock. Most things are up to date on the car. I replaced the injectors, fuel filter, and 4 of the coil packs already. Replaced most of the fuel lines and vacuum lines. I have a Magnaflow 14815 muffler on it right now...I think thats it and the older warpspeed B section piping so the car doesn't drone as much. The water pump was also just replaced not too long ago. The clutch is still good as well. It has Eibach springs and Tokico shocks. The speakers are upgraded and the rear deck has been sealed up for use with 6.5" subs which I am using right now but I could include them with the car but I need to keep the amplifier. A/C still blows cold.
There are some issues though. Being 17 years old the paint is not as good as it can be. The hood was repainted at home so it needs a good wetsand and polishing job. The front bumper, grill, right fender, parts of the trunk and rear driver side may need some new paint. It's just really up to you how much you want out of the exterior. The interior is pretty much immaculate except for the dash has some opening of the foam at the front defroster vents. The shift **** leather is lifting a little. There is a whine from the transmission even with the redline GL4 fluid. Also the temperature gauge acts up even though I know its not over heating. I suspect the temperature sensor is the issue. The A/C controls are also stuck on cold but I do have a replacement unit, I just haven't been able to install it. Timing chain tensioner does need replacing and the Y pipe seals have not been replaced where they meet with the manifolds.
I do have some accessories that I could include with the sale but it will add t the price of the car. I have a set of 18" 7 spoke g35 wheels that were refinished in gray. I also have a never-installed stillen kit. I've been driving the past 8 months with no issues so this Maxima should provide some good service or if you want to put some wrenching into it, there should be more than enough stuff for you to work on. Here are the pictures which I'll update today after I clean up the car. Also do note the 350z wheels are not on there anymore. The Maxima is riding on the original sawblades with tires that still have 3/4 of their life on there. The tires are Falken Ziex 512s.

I want $1000 for the car itself. The wheels are an additional $250 and Stillen kit will be another $300. With or separately. I know someone will want to give this car a good home.

Bump...maybe someone can save this car from going across the border to Mexico. I think my parents are talking to a few people that might end up doing that. The max is at their house in Houston with title signed and ready to go so hit me up if you want it.

HVAC controls I have but did not have time to replace it since I only had one day to remove the components and return the car mostly back to stock.

Lowering price...parents found a buyer but I want to keep the car with an enthusiast that can appreciate it. I don't think I included this in the original post but this car did have the factory VLSD and did not have the abs.
