Went to Moscow last month and there is nothing to make you feel like home like being drivin around in a max!

So mini meet, moscow style I had to pop the hood...

take a look at next to the dash light dimmer.... it actually has a use somewhere else.. notice the matching radio trim..

Sorry, meant to take pics of the outside but never got around to it..

 

now thats a cool idea, but i'm sure it's a pain in the a$$

how was the weather there?

 

ha!! sweet

That VQ20DE pic is awesome.

 

Confused: your Russian? Holy crap.

 

It's BB!

 

Nice!

Did you steal a couple of MEVI and bring it back?

 

Sunny every day... really lucky.

Nope....

Sup Don Synki

No mevi's but a dozen mail order brides.... time to retire soon..

 

what about the rpm guage whats the digital screen for??

 

that engine bay sure is dirty! dash trim looks nice. and finally glad to see that place for a button next to the dimmer switch used for something.

 

when i was in moscow i only saw one black 4th gen maxima that looks like what we have in the US. all the other "maximas" there are I30s, but they are called Nissan's and not Infinitis. (Might be actually called a Cefiro, but i forgot)

 

steering is on the left hand side.. i call

 

Not all of Europe has steering wheel on the right side.

 

 

just curious, with the 2.0l VQ, is both the bore and stroke smaller? I'd assume it has the same 10.0:1 compression ratio. Cool pics either way.

 

You're an idiot, if you are serious. I am Russian, born in Moscow, and the cars there are NOT right side drive.

 

He's prolly not serious but still an idiot.

 

I'm not sure which countries are RHD and which are LHD, but there are more countries that are LHD than RHD in Europe.

 

hes not being serious

 

Hey B

 

sorry.. don't recall what was there..

sup luke

leave it to sprinty.....

Those maximas look like they own our maximas! Factory MEVI, in-car telephone, digital lcd in RPM gauge. . lol . .

 

Cool pictures. After looking at the speedo, you can see how it goes up to 260 km/h, where is ours only go up to 220 km/h. I wonder what those red lines are for between 0-60km/h. I question whether or not that button with the fuel sign on it is for the fuel door release?

 

up on the dash by the phone? looks likes a switch...im guessing its the button to open. do they all come with those funky in car phones?
*edit* that sony stereo is pretty nice looking too, with the wood trim on all the small parts. also can anyone host the engine pic, or e-mail it to me none of the links work (pics are either broken, or load the first 1/4 inch and fail) thanks

 

and I just came back from a trip to Kiev, Ukraine. Saw some 3rd gens that look very much like US-spec, 4th gen that resembles 96-99 I30, and a 5th gen that is 2k+ I30. BTW were there any VQ35s in Moscow?

 

Whast that digital gauge under the rpm meter?

 

whats the button on the steering wheel where the cruise control buttons would be??

 

Looked at the full size pic... its a digital thermometer (outside temp) and it looks to also be a small trip computer by the markings. I don't know if it was functional as far as the trip computer but it does read the temp.

BTW, their maxima resembles our infiniti i30 in terms of body style

VQ35 were rare... I think I saw one.

 

hey BB ... isn't nice how the newbs come out and defend you?

sad that they didn't know we were running these stupid jokes in Nov 99 @ etown ... newbs..

one day i am going to rid the board of newbs...

and nicky boy.. i am and idiot... but you are just like me so you are an idiot too

 

I still remember the QUIET Sprinty..

and this is for you sprinty

 

quiet:

whas that pic suppose to prove?

 

lol...cute image flip sprint

 

hahahaha damn the english for having flipped roads

 

the traffic on Russia is left hand drive, you moron lol

 

nothing... its what i brought back for you..

 

I30s have that fuel door release button.

 

i didnt know that

 

Russia is not Europe

 

do i have to pull out an episode of OZ to show you who is boss?

 

yes it is (eastern Europe), go back to school and take the geography class

 

European Russia is the small mass of Russian land west of the Ural Mountains, fronting Europe.
It is not a separate country, but rather called European Russia because of its political and cultural blending with European countries and peoples.
St. Petersburg and Moscow, (the capital) are located in European Russia. Regardless, the entire country is still considered a part of Asia/Siberia.
it's just like saying that Turkey is part of Europe.
