I was wondering if there was anyway to advance the timing on a 96 max w/o buying a new ecu. I don't think there is but it cant hurt to ask i guess

 

Nope. Its all computer controlled like all other distributerless igniton cars.

 

True, I just figured id ask cuz i know it can be done on the 300zx by the turn of a **** but if it was possible on the maxima im sure i would've read about it somewhere by now. Thanx

 

It IS possible to advance the base timing on some newer distributorless engines, such as the VQ35. I don't know exactly how though. PM SR20DEN for the details. He has done this on his 3.5 Maxima...

To the original poster...no you cant...

 

I beleive you are correct there may be some special ways to do it with a DIS. I recall a crustang Gt I saw that had a special harmonic balancer to do it, but who cares its just a mustang.

 

So does anyone know about any special adapters to do advance the timing?

 

A reprogrammed ECU. That's the only way.

 

No, its a billet timing adjuster that attaches to the crankshaft pulley.

 

Is it maxima specific? Where can i find one? Any links would be greatly appreciated. Thanx

 

I knew that sh$% was Sh$y Yup thats why now Im going kick my freind in the @zz for making me post that zoom bull**** Sorry you guys lets move on .

 

That Zoom performace POS does nothing. I can't believe i just read that...

 

LOL, is that the same "chip" that supposedly adds 20hp from those bogus Pieces of **** sellers on ebay? sounds pretty similar to me, and if thats the case, then someone should take this guys car from him.

 

LIMaxin I was referring to the part for the Mustang.

 

Haha, japmaxSE, wasted a lot of money on absolutely nothing. Funny ****.

 

I knew that crap was bull ****. good thing I found the .org befor I actally considered buying that thing.
