FS 1997 Maxima SE 5 spd Daily Driver - concord mist (purple)
SOLD at 1700.
=================================================
$1800 OBO
199,500 miles. I am 2nd owner since 69K miles (about Fall 2004). Most reliable car I've ever owned.
Engine and trans strong and smooth.
Color is Concord Mist. (I was told once this is the second most rare color, just behind bright red). I have only seen 2 or 3 others in this color around North Jersey.
Tires are just about BRAND NEW. (about $650 last year). The front tires have less than 500 miles, if that on them. Rear tires have about 1000 miles as they were on my 03 max for a little while (and only driven locally)
Tires are Good Year Assurance Triple Tread
Has Pioneer Radio DEH-P700BT with four Pioneer TS-D1602R speakers. Radio has usb connection, with ipod/iphone connection and control. Has AUX in jack and Bluetooth phone / music connection. (Always worked with my phone and ipods both usb and bluetooth)
Here is a list of work that I have peformed over the years as far as I can remember :
Starter Twice
Knock Sensor
Rear left Caliper
Front caliper brackets
Exhaust from rear up to cat
Battery
Brakes several times. Actually, I think only discs once.
Clutch master cyliner
Lower clutch hose
Freed up stuck solenoid twice on rear charcol canister (some emissions thing, forgot name, always causes CEL)
Pioneer premier stereo and pioneer speakers all around (original radio stopped playing cassete adapters and cd player got error a lot)
Just did the belt after 180K miles. Good thing too. was ready to go. All dried and missing pieces.
Refilled A/C twice
Right Front Strut Mount
Clutch (I did the clutch myself last year at about 195K miles. As far as I know, 195K miles was on teh original clutch. Clutch is stock exedy replacement. Here are some pics from the install: http://forums.maxima.org/4th-generat...tensive-2.html
Here are some things it needs, but not mandatory for it to drive home and keep on driving:
Needs:
Front Axles (clicking for the last 30k miles or more)
The check engine light to go off!! lol
Front ABS sensor bad so no ABS, and that thing ain't comin out
Frame rotted under radiator where engine cross member bolts to.
Plastic around shifter cracked and broken
Sway Bar end links
Other noteables:
CEL is currently on. I'll try to get a code as this seems a common question here. (probably emissions canister valve)
ABS light is on. For years, I just removed the light in fear of failing inspection
NJ Inspection good through 8/2013.
Car has been sitting since August last year when I got my new car. It has been started and driven regularly around the block. As a result, the brakes (probably rear) are kinda stuck. I am in process, if necessary, of cleaning and lubing them. This is all it needs to drive away and keep driving as a daily driver.
NO Oil leaks, NO burning oil, No coolant leaks. No other leaks that I am aware of.
Car is located in Warren County, NJ. (Rt 31 and 57). Can be seen on Weeknights after 6 and weekends.
Contact: moonkoi420 AT yahoo dot com
VIN available upon request. If you need more photos, let me know, I'll get em in a day.
When I bouhgt the car in 04, the car fax was clean. Although as the time went on, it was apparent the right side may have been re-painted. I have had no accidents with car. Only a minor incident in NYC involving a large van's bumber clipping the left rear fender by the back door. I think a report was made, but that's it. Its bent up, but makes no wind noise.
Currently, car is not registered or insured. So driving is limited to around the block. (Its a quiet neighborhood). When I last drove it in August last year, it was fine. Mostly highways miles the last few years. It's just fine on the highway. No vibrations, and quiet. Only vibrations over the years have been from unbalance tires.
oh, and somewhere I have a stainless chrome test pipe. (I thinks its a test pipe. It replaces the Cat). It goes with the car.
