    Default SC: Built 96 nissan maxima 3.5 swap

    So here is my love Maxine.. I love her to death have taken very good care of her and she's very quick but i want to get something for the wife as I look for my 5.5 gen 6speed. she's not a beauty queen but shes been loved very well.. here is the history of the car

    the vehicle was purchase in atlanta with its soul purpose to be a donor car for a 3.5 swap. when the car was purchased, it had a running 3.0 in it with 247,XXX miles on it. Drove it to Matty Blaccs house and began the swap with the help of M Deezy, Ruby Maxine was born. everything was done right and nice. check engine light is on because of the swap and thats it. no other codes for anything and made sure its mint, has gotten me to Florida, Mississippi, Texas, Maryaland, New York and Michigan on countlest trips, oil always changed with Royal purple and filter. take a look at the pics, she is a 96 with a 97-99 front end and brand new head lights


    Pro's
    3.5 motor
    Pathfinder tb
    3.0 advanced timing
    3.5 rev up cams
    ARC studs and lifters (replaced stock when cleaning engine bay)
    3.0 upper and lower oil pan
    Stage 3 act clutch (maybe 8k on it now)
    intake
    open throttle wired to hit 3k..

    Interior:
    clothe interior swapped for leather which on a scale of 1-10 is about a 6.. sun roof and all windows work except the rear passenger which is off track

    ICE:
    Pioneer double din tv, works perfect,
    Pioneer 6.5 componet set in front doors and tweets
    Pioneer 6.5 in rear deck
    Quantom audio 600 4 channel running all speakers

    Wheels:
    2001 SE 17's in good tires
    Hawk Pads
    New axles under warranty and transferable
    Dropzone suspension

    Cons:
    Needs a windshield
    Paint job
    New bumper and grill (unisured person backed in to her at walmart and left)


    $4200 OBO... really looking to trade ...



    I'd prefer a 5.5 as a trade but a 5th gen is just as nice with options.. if its manual i'd love that also.. doesnt have to be modded.. just nice..
    I'm really looking to get into an auto max for the wife and I'll buy a 5.5 later if necessary thanks for looking.

    I think just the throttle body is from a Pathfinder. Obviously you know the Path only came with a 4.0 v6 or optional 5.6 V8.

    stock clutch would not hold with the power I was putting down .. built I was putting down just under 350 on a street tune.. I had a stage 2 that ended up frying in a short period of time so I got a deal on a act stage three and its been beauty ever since.. though the entire setup is in another car now i'm looking to trade this with no motor but tranny with it for a running honda

    Not that it matters but Pathfinders came with a 3.3L year 2000 and down then a 3.5L year 2001 and up for a few years. FYI
