yes I have. I may be the only one in CT now but I'm not sure. You really shouldn't be doing these mods if you're not doing any work yourself. Doing swaps requires you to know what you did and how to fix problems that occur. If you have someone else do the swap, you'll most likely need to have them fix problems if you don't know what was done. Just my $.02 about it.

There are tons of threads with tons of information. But I'm assuming you haven't seen any of them. IMO, you could have any family mechanic work on it, but a Maxima owner is just that much better and more efficient. I don't care how many other cars they've built/fixed/how many years they've been doing it, fact is, Maxima specific people are just more efficient. Plain and simple.

With all that said, Cdg2125 knows his A32's, and 00VI's. I would get a hold of him if I were you. Or, get it doen by your family mechanics. Not a decision we can make for you.

well it depends what route he goes. If you're thinking about doing the swap then start reading the threads about the swap. There is a lot to read. It's not a hard swap if you know what you're doing but if you don't you'll face a lot of problems and your car will not run for a while. XJinCT, did you 3.5 swap?
