I Really Really Want A Turbo!!!now!!!
OK I might sound a little stubborn about this but I think that for me a MaxTurboKit is a little to much money for me to spend on my 4thgen. I already spent over a period of time Over $2800 on my car Wish I saved that (stupid). I wish I could afford it but cant It will take me more than a while to save that kind of money. I know I can pretty much do most of the installation on my own thats no problem , so that would be cheaper on my part but still to expensive . So I was thinking of selling my wheels which are worth at least $1500 and a few other things for about $500 .Ok long story short I want to know were can I get a complete kit for my 4thgen for under $3000 I don't care if its used or not please help me out I NEED A TURBO NOW!!!!!RIGHT NOW!!!!!

good luck, all I got to say is you get what you pay for, myself being in iraq I have more than enough for the kit and everything I want to do to my maxima. If you want a quality kit with all the needed accessories, and yes I did say needed, look to spend about 5000 or so. My grand total for just engine performance to my max is hovering in the 8000 range it looks like. And I just got in on a GD for some 18 in volks, damn this thing is getting expensive. Oh well its worth it. I would suggest you wait and save up for a quality kit. If you shortcut stuff your gonna end up spending more on maintaining it and fixing stuff than you would have if you just saved and bought a quality kit. Good luck

Turbo/SC
I want a turbo myself. But it wont be for the Max, I'd, much rather get a car that came forced induced. ie. WRX,WRX STi, Lancer Evo VII, Impala SS (SCed), I think thats a good platform to start off with...I wanna get the WRX STi but I dont know how to drive stick 
and I mean at ALL.

If I could afford a new car now, I would have to get the newer 300hp>300tq WRX STI WOW. But I wont be able to cause Im to busy being a Full time college student with 3 yrs left. I dont think I can wait any longer Im going to have to turbocharge something .The reason for that was I used to have a 84 300zx AE Turbo 13.8 1/4 98mph @ 10lbs thats on the stock motor.I loved that car to its death (no more Z). I think I might just go back to buying another ZX Car Its cheaper and more fun do drive,great car.

I ended up w/ being convinced w/ my friend to get a Z which will be timeless. The car was purchased for $12,900, and it's paid off, fast stock, TONS of upgrades, people have both broken 11's on stock turbos and have hit 400 rwhp on stock turbos so I know the potential is there. My maxima was in great shape, lowered, black, extremely clean... Yeah I got looks, but not like the Z.
The unfortunate thing is i've dumped thousands into my car already, but I'll be keeping it for life.
Good luck on your next car.
