My soon to be I30t*Pics included*

Well, some of you have read my other post. Its final, I'm buying it this weekend for a cheaper price than before. What cha guy's think. it has 200,000 miles on it.






I also wanted some info about dash kits. I wanted to see about replacing the wood material with either chrome, aluminum, or black dash kit. Is there anyone that can lead me in the right direction. Is the Maxima dash the same as the i30t, if so would these work.

Wood trim is much better in my opinion, stick with that.

Also, that's a pretty clean 96

its actually a 99 I30t. I haven't got the car yet, and seen the trim either. when i get the car, i might just leave the wood trim. Its just that I want it to look a little more sportier

Leave the trim. You have two pieces that are hard to come by. Wood trim for 5 speed and climate control. Every other trim is wack. You will regret it later.....

and those stick on kits look like SHIET when installed. Stay with the factory applied peices.
Most if not all of those e-gay kits are not molded and there for they don't cover very well.

^^^ notice what it says on the trunk ???? my guess is he is an Aussie A32b owner!

to the OP ... looks good, and if you picked it up for 1,800 .... you stole it! Nice find!

Oh yea, the car is an 1999 I30t 5spd vq30de engine no mods. It has a leak in the muffler and the intake manifold gasket needs to be replaced(one of them he said gives him more throttle response, which one?) Are there any write ups to replace any of these problems.

yeah I'll have to charge my camera .. it would fit 100%, I've got auto climate and 5spd. I think the only difference would be I have a flip-out tray, I think yours has a pop-open tray

** actually on looking at the photos at edmunds I think the trim around the acc is different**

I love the black interior. I got stuck with tan on my I30t but I painted the trim pieces black with 6 coats of clear.
