2000 Nissan Maxima SE 5spd fully loaded (meridian package) power heated leather seats, power moonroof, auto climate control, ac just recharged, I am about to replace the plugs with brand new NGK iridium IR's...all fluids have only about 6K-10K miles on them; except for the oil, that is changed religiously every 3K miles with only mobil 1 supersyn 10w30 and only nissan oem filters. Car has about 48,500 miles on it and is maintained immaculately by only myself and a nissan master tech only.

car runs perfect, needs nothing, no repairs to date as nothing has broken.
aesthetically, the car has a minor dent in the rear right passenger door that was there when I bought it from it's original owner and a minor paint scratch in the front stillen lip that needs to be touched up. Price reflects this.

asking $14.5K

I'd prefer not to part out if possible which is why I am gauging interest here.

holy s*** that car is nice.

 

thank you! it is the result of a lot of sweat, blood, and elbow grease...

I should be getting some interior pics soon...

 

really nice car

 

Please read the stickies, it's either for sale or it's not. We have stopped GI threads due to the crap that gets posted in them....

 

then it's a for sale thread for now on...
I will post a price soon for the car without mods if no interest arises for the car as is...

as of right now, the price has been lowered...

 

this car is an autocross/road race prepped car, I guarantee it is in the top ten of all maximas ever as far as handling and balance go...yet has all the luxuries, amenities, and comfort you'd expect from a fully loaded maxima.

 

oh sorry, I forgot to actually post the new price: $14K

if asked anyone who knew me, you'd know how much of a ocd fanatic/freak about maintaining my cars...I spare no expense and only use nissan oem new parts in addition to only letting very few highly qualified people under the hood!

 

ill take the trans

 

Are you really that stupid?

 

sometime tomorrow I should have some interior pics and I will get some engine bay, under car/suspension/subframe/exhaust pics...etc.

 

14k Obo???

 

$13K OBO...but I will be taking off the CF hood and selling that seperately...so I will have to put the original hood back on...

 

no one in the market? hmm...well perhaps if anyone knows anyone in the market for a maxima and would like to one day get into autocross or road racing...let them know...

 

$10K OBO?

 

$9K?

 

I recently installed the stainless clutch line...

I am also soon going to have the rear bumper and front stillen splitter/bumper repainted as nissan's crappy paint seems to chip over time as everyone knows.

$8K absolutely firm but I take off the carbon fiber hood and cf mirror shells and keep the bored out TB...

car now has 52.5K miles and the only mechanical issue is it the progress coilovers could use a refreshening...meaning the top mounts are making noise (so perhaps a simple, cheap rebuild or just new strut bearings up front).

 

bump, bump, bump.

 

still for sale, mine just got totalled and am waiting from the insurance to see how much they will give me for it?

 

yes it is...let me know when your insurance cuts you a check if your interested in having a look at it.

 

My insurance is only giving me 4K for my car. Bummer because I just put about 4k in parts in my car in the past 1 1/2 years. I just put in a new 5 speed, clutch, rear main seal, rebuilt front suspension, with tokiko's lowered about 1.75. I put in a y-pipe, brembo brakes, 17” wheels, took corners at twice the recommended speed +5.

How about 4k and my 91 LX Mustang, puts out a little over 300hp. Here’s a list of what I have done to it.
Brand new aluminum Eldebrock heads
cam, full roller valvetrain,
24lb fuel injectors, 70mm TB, 72mm MAS, CAI
I also have 1.6 roller rockers that you can have, right now I have 1.0 roller rockers installed.
Replaced waterpump, ignition wires cap rotor. 110L fuel pump.
Full Mac Exhaust lumacoated, 1 5/8 headers, 2.5" all the way back, no cats, I have the stock one in the rafters, you can have it so you can smog it.

I have about 5k miles on the top end and tranny
Transmission is a 4 speed auto with police clutch package, overdrive servo out of cougar xr7, and a shiftkit.
I replaced the 2.72 gears in the rear end with 3.73’s and replaced the bearings while I was at it. About 10k miles on that.

Car weighs in at 3200 lbs

I have put way more than 4k into it, just in upgrades. It’s always been garaged; it’s never been in an accident and has about 2 dings in it. The paint is in good shape. Total sleeper. Looks stock. This model mustang is hard to find. The color is Charcoal grey; I have front shocks for it, which I haven’t put in yet. I was just about to gut the suspension and rebuild it, till my kids came along. Needs new tires in the front.

This was my project car, but I have to part with it because I have 3 kids now and they are sucking up all my extra time and money. I wish I could keep it. Plus I got to many tickets in it. Ran it at the track once, and it runs high13’s in the quarter.

I bought this car from the original owner. He was a Captain in the Navy and he drove it from Texas to California many times. I put about 60k miles on it since I had it. Right now it has about 115K on it.
I would rather you have it, because you can appreciate all the work I put into it. Plus if you take it, you have to keep me up to date on what you are doing to it, I like to see this car grow.

I am meticulous about my cars, but probably not as much as you.

 

If your maxima is totalled, you usually have the option of them paying you for the car, and you take all the stock parts you have laying around and throwing those in the trunk before they haul it away, then you pull off all the still good aftermarket parts and sell them, that's what I did with my '95. But unfortunately, I am not considering any trades right now, only cash.

 

I think $8 is a fair offer considering the mileage and mods (even without the CF hood)...though...what do others think?

 

thats a pretty good price. it has really low mioles

 

Sorry everyone, i have some bad news.

I bought it, and i must say that the few days i have had it it drives great.

Michael, i had it realigned 0° toe and 1.2° negative camber, car still handles great. The factory spec is .5° positive to 1.0° negative camber. The shop could not get it any closer to zero. 1.2 is all what it could give. I happy with that.

Do you want your plates? The DMV wants 40 bucks to keep them. I am going with regular plates now, maybe when i get some extra money i can put them on my car. If you dont want them, I will need to send you the form so you can release it to me. I forgot to ask, is this a one time fee? or do you have to pay the 40 bucks every year?

If i have to replace the rotors and pads, what and where can i purchase them?

 

well I included the stock 5th gen pads, calipers and rotors which are good condition...
The pads and rotors on there now (6th gen) should last you a good while still. I also included another set of 2 piece rotors which you could use while you send in another set to get them machined (matt blehm knows about the company, they are coleman racing and they said I can ship the rotors to them (just discs, not the hats to save money on shipping) and they would machine them pretty cheap) I trust them the most since they made the 2 piece 6th gen rotors for our car. But if you want to stay with the 6th gen brakes but not 2 piece rotors, then there are a few group deals usually on one piece 6th gen rotors or you can also pick up them at the local nissan dealership of course, including the pads but they will be a step down from the hawk hps 6th gen pads and highly specialized rotors I have on there now.

That alignment sounds good, I have the cattman/progress camber bolts on there for more adjustability. Just remember to keep those tire pressures up on those soft sidewall t1r's...

As far as the plate goes, I don't remember what the deal with that is, you might want to talk to the DMV or on their website they should have some more information...I thought it was a one time fee. If you think you want to keep them, please send me the form and I will sign it and send it back, if not, you can send them back to me.

 

Sweet pick up tbergma1! Did you trade/sell your mustang to get this maxima? This is definitely the ideal 5th gen to pick up (cleanly modified, babied, and immaculate)!

Congrats

 

8G's my friend, insurance money. Still have the mustang. Sitting in the garage. A couple more questions
Regarding the aluminum flywheel, what is the make and whats the weight?
Regarding the UDP, whats the make on that?

I like the cutout on there, i opened it up on freeway, man is it loud. How much HP is gained by using the cutout?

 

The cutout is more for sound then gains, up top there is some slight gains to be had, but torque is lost so it's good for top end runs...

Flywheel is stillen, it is 5lbs lighter than stock according to their website, so whatever that is, something like 10lbs without the ring gear, so stock must be 15 without the ring gear.
UDP is unorthodox racing, it is the new stock size one.

 

bump. great car. great seller.

 

You got a PM.

 

No, unfortunately it is sold.
