What can i use from a J30 ?

Some guy is parting out

i heard on here someone who swapped his black door handles (interior) with the j30's chrome door handles, any one remember this and if this is possible ?

also i know people use calipers from the j30 as well, what else may be of use to me ?

PS just found this http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....58751&t=518072 to confirm they are the same, but anyone take their doors apart can tell me if i need to take the whole panel off or just the door handle comes out ?

lol i have a parts j30.....those cars are horrible...good for a 240sx owner though...i jacked the vlsd, maf, and brakes out of it for my old s13....i think about all you can use is the maf for an upgrade. if you decided you can use anything let me know, i have the whole car still. minus what i just mentioned.

thanks man my brakes are good for now and maf doesnt give me problems
i did find the writeup here: https://maxima.org/shoptalk/sub_modi...t2/index.shtml

but thats for using I30 handles not j30 they should be the same right ?

why is the j30 crap ? i like the looks, its sleek, 210 HP and 192 TQ its not the VQ30DE tho what engine is that ? i know its a 3.0

that car is ugly as all hell...its slow as ****...its super heavy...

it uses a vg30de, a non turbo 300zx engine...its rwd and its not remotely close to the i30 at all. i doubt anything will bolt in...you can always make it work though.

Also a Maxima engine (since what, 85? through 94), truck engine, Pathfinder (though that may be VG33), etc.

Damn, that VG got around.

Wheels and brakes. Probably a few small interior parts, btu not many. As has been said, they are good donors for an S13 or S14, but not an A32.
