Nice work bro, respect from Toronto. I still have my '99 SE 5MT, '96 GLE, and my big brother has his '95 SE 5MT (TLMNICK), which only see hot summer days. I'm definitely looking into a 3.5 swap for my '99 as well, it's a great engine for this platform.

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Thanks bro Appreciate. Have to keep 4th gens alive

[@mgopaul27]

@@bajanrichmax6517 Yeah man for sure, I'm pretty sure ours are the only ones up here that aren't a pile of dust now lol. The GLE is a babied daily, the other 2 don't see anything but hot summer days

I am working on the same swap for my 97 Maxima. Cant figure out the timing, i have the cam adapters, but need guidance on installing, and trying to verify cam lob orientation and how all that comes together. Do you have any pictures of yours? And any advice? Would really appreciate any help Very nice ride, keep the content coming

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Thanks appreciate. I do not have a good video of my installation of them but if you reach out to schmellyfart on KZbin he can provide the details

[@rickvillarreal8727]

Great looking maxima ..what year rims are those if u don't mind me asking

[@bajanrichmax6517]

2011 370z sport rays rims

[@torringames]

I love the way those rims look on the late 90s Maximas and Altimas but everyone and their mama and grandmama does it

[@yodauaaaaaa]

Wish you could help me with this damn timing chain 😭

[@dankdank7174]

Love the max dude. I have a 5th gen 3.0 manual any suggestions on how to get the 3.0 to max power without a 3.5 swap

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Swap the upper/lower manifolds and you can go as far as swap the injectors

[@dankdank7174]

Can you be more specific on what to swap them with?

[@jwod199]

I’ve found that the vq30 isn’t as modifiable as the vq35. You could try some ss headers, ported intake manifold, throttle body/intake spacer to help reduce intake temperatures slightly and possibly a tune if you can find someone or know how to yourself. Other than that, you’ll find more performance in swapping with the vq35.

[@vitalii6709]

Hey bro thanks for the video! Your car is impossible great! I have Nissan Maxima 1998 a32 manual transmission with VQ20DE engine. The engine is on its sunset so I'm looking for some to replace.Which engine would you suggest to install on my car? Thanks!

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Thanks bro. If you can get your hands on a 2016 n up motor I am telling you you will definitely be happy. I have been meaning to post the complete parts list but have been so busy keep forgetting. Will do it this weekend stay tuned

Hi, I have a question i have a 98 maxima 5 speed my motor is blown would a 2001 infiniti i30 3.0L fit what modifications would i need? Or it wont fit? Thanks

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Don't know how I missed this question, sorry about that. Only mod u need is an adapter for the throttle body to use yours from your 98 max to the 2001 engine. Everything else is the same

[@RETARDEDFATTKIDROBOT]

Very nice. I'm looking to vq30 mine. I'm building it with my daughter starting this summer hopefully. What mounts did you use? You should do a grocery list of parts this is something I may pick up a manual SE max to do. I love 4th gens. Those mirrors are a cool custom feature also.

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Thanks. I use OEM mounts but made them solid mounts. That will be a great bonding moment with your daughter. I will post the list of parts needed for the build

[@torringames]

Can these motors use a manual transmission or are u stuck with the hot dog water CVT

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Yes these engines can used with the manual transmission. I am using the 2003 hlsd manual tranny

[@4DIVID7]

What's up with the trunk? The spoiler how did you manage that?

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Had the factory trunk fab up to create this spoiler look

[@johnXcon]

How much?

[@nickroccosalvo8057]

Hi, I'm interested in doing this to my 2002 with the 6spd? Will this manual trans bolt to this engine?

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Yes this will bolt right up no mods needed

[@RacingHeartMedia]

Will u need to swap over any parts from the vq35de to the 2020 motor? Or do any modifications need to be made before swapping

[@rodneycoleman2919]

Nice maxima. Can that motor fit in a 2004 350z?

[@bajanrichmax6517]

Thanks. It would fit but u will need the 350z lower oil pan

[@africasquad1060]

Where do you shop for parts ,I can find any shop that sells your tail lights

[@bajanrichmax6517]

I made the taillights by putting them in the oven to open them and then adding the clear piece from materials I bought from home depot

[@africasquad1060]

Hello thank you for the response, but something is bothering me , Why don't people just use the 3.5 timing?

Lmao the cvt transmissions are crap to me. The response time is trash but if you put the motors in a 4th or 5th gen maxima the car becomes an animal.

I drove a 2022 pathfinder rental car and this new 3.5 has some guts to it, even in a 4000+ lbs suv. I can only imagine what it would be like in a lighter chassis.
