I think that IS a Sylvia, just with a different name in Australia. The Sylvia Spec-R in Japan with the SR20DE-T cranks out something like 247hp and 205lb-ft. It hauls. And it wouldn't cost any more than the new WRX.
Arrghh...if only Nissan would bring it here

The Australians really luck out - they don't like front wheel drive so the manufacturers give them nice rwd cars. Add uncrowded roads and high speed limits ....

from its looks, it appears that the Australian Maxima is like the I30 over here. Also the steering wheel is on the right side, so enjoy.

I30/max

My understanding is that everywhere else in the world the Max looks like the Max is aust. and the US max is only sold here. The US I30 is the same as the Max they sell overseas.

"Our Version" of the Maxima doesn't really exist outside of North America the closest thing is the I30 which is the Cefiro or badged "Maxima", in Asia and mostly everywhere else!!!

Thats why our aftermarket line is soooo small ... cuz it just doesn't exist anywhere else!

Stillen, or should i say "Stealin'" is the only "LARGE" company!
