Yes, in a short few days i will be an owner of a Blue VE 5spd fully loaded. I am currently selling and almost sold my Maxima for 2850. She has taken me from point A to point B and everywhere in between.
I will misss her. She was my first and I would never have thought I would ever sell her. She has been though alot and has given me the gift, the gift of going on adventures, cruising around with my Wifey, and having tons of memories. The first time i drove 500+ miles round trip. The first time ever caught speeding (twice actually). And when i have installed her very first real mod (FSTB). But yes its time to move on, and set up in the world of what a "Sport Sedan"; a real 4DSC(4 Door Sports Car) should be. STICK YES! 190 HP and 190 Ftlbs Tq YES! DOHC! LSD! Top speed 145 @ 6700 RPMS!


As a new owner and club member of a ve 5spd; what are there that i need to know about how the car should feel. What was your first impressions when you got your 5spd ve? I am going to a new world, and i am gonna love it.

Good by old reliable. Yu will be in my memories. My webpages, and of course you started my love for the 3rd gen(actually it was my fathers 89 gxe)



This is somewhat i am getting. Just to give an ideal.




PS Check my sig

 

i dont think i've ever seen a 3rd gen in that color before, is it a very limited production model?? good luck with the brand new used car, hopefully it'll serve u well

 

congrats on the whip izzy
5 speeds the way to go

unique color too

 

Thanks.. yes it is rare to find a blue 3rd gen.. specially when its a VE 190hp 5 spd

 

cool get me on AIM so we can talk

 

Awesome, good to have another VE 5 speed owner on the boards, mod that sucker and get some times, and show these 4th gen boys whats up. Awesome color too!

 

"Top speed 145 @ 6700 RPMS" wow he can read the speedo and tach lol

you can definatly go over 145mph dude, try it! =)

 

"i dont think i've ever seen a 3rd gen in that color before, is it a very limited production model??"

Id Imagine it had a paint job not too long ago, therefor it probably isnt something super rare. Although it IS a maxima none the less, w00t

 

Yes there were a number of 3rd gens in that color but it was one of the rarer colors

Most notably Jacobs old VE

And yeah you can do more than 145

I did 143 in my old skyblue VE auto with 3 passengers and still RPM room to play with.

For any of you newer guys my old car:

 

damn that looks good this is he one i am getting http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...a/fc62f257.jpg

 

damn izzy... good job bro!

looks like you got a great find.

 

how are you getting up to mass

and why am i #4

 

definately a needle in a hay stack. a ve 5-speed in that color is very hard to find. always been my favorite color. what are your plans? congrats. i just sold my ve 5-speed and bought a vg auto. you dont know how much i miss my vE. dont be stupid and let her go.

joshua

 

I have the same color 93 SE...I just put on new front struts today, but its AUTO=(. AT least still got my 99se 5spd =)

 

because he needed room for me and diego

and Im probably going with him to look at and probably get the car

 

see its good to have friends that help out.. thanks bro.. i think wednesday
but i have to get the money from the sale of my maxima

 

at 150 youll be aroud 6100rpms in 5th so if you ever have enough power you should be able to pull 170 at readline

 

um i want to enjoy my max.. and i have never gone faster than 133mph so 160 seems like its hard to and there isnt enough room around her for me to do that.. 170 i dont want to kill my self nor damage a maxima thta i was looking for the past 10 months

 

actually i was surprized how well the max handled at 150 and my susp is stock right now i think some people have done mid 150s but i think to do about 160 you would need fi

 

when i get her i am gonna change the suspension to either back to eibachs or suspension technique with tokicos

 

cuz you're an auto

 

 

oh i forgot.. best for last, thank you thank you

i think i may keep it auto for now.. when i was driving home it didnt feel so bad even after taking jays car for a spin; i love the pull in 3rd gear when O/D is off

 

u drove jays max grrr

 

didnt you too before

 

 

let me know for sure about the day though so I can make sure I dont have to work, unless you wanted to go in the afternoon. or something

 

It's no big deal to drive a stock VE Wait till you guys drive mine Jay drove mine and the NYC VE's are more than welcome anytime just don't kill it.

 

stock your car was nice but I got a cramp in my am from your shifter, you said you got that out of a 79 mac right?

 

we'll see when I get you on the highway who will be then

 

now = you
later = me

 

Later yeah for sure you'll beat me, but then again you'll be spending a lot of money.

 

once i get my camaro, youre all owned

 

When you get your camaro you go play with camaro's

 

are we losing a ve member??

 

DUDE!! my car is that color but it's not a ve 5spd. finally somebody with the same color car as me

 

got pics

 

nope i don't got any pics. don't really feel like taking pictures of my stock maxima. maybe when i fix the damn thing and put some mods on it i will take some pics but that's going to be a very long time from now.

 

Im thinking about buying a 93 VE 5spd in that same color from a friend. Its in decent shape, clean interior, runs perfect, good VTC's, for $1,800. It has 208k though, I wanted to get it as a beater car to keep the miles off my current VE 5spd that has 135K. Still debating on getting it, but that color is what owning me right now...
