I am sure there are many other mods but this is all I can think of at the moment, but I would say it has around 10k in mods. I have not dyno tuned it on this setup but my previous setup it made 294 on 17 lbs on a the stock motor, intercooler, a few mods, and a 16g. I run 22 psi on conservative multimeter tune as my daily driver with no knock. Slowboy racing said that it should make around 400 whp if it was tuned. It has 88k on the odometer and Kelly Blue Book value for it is $9,100 http://www.kbb.com/KBB/UsedCars/Pric...00&ModelId=225. I am also open to hear about trades PLUS money. Thanks for looking, and call me @ (615)479-7885 if you have any questions.

Honestly I wish that I could keep the car, but I am in the process of opening up a business, and I need to show up for meetings with the professional look of a maxima (old rich guys have no luv for 4 bangers or loud cars), and honestly I don't have the time to give it the attention it deserves, which is why I still have not tuned the current setup out on a dyno.

I really do love the maxima tho. I used to have a 2000 gxe, but wanted to go real fast and beat up on the vettes and vipers, so I traded it for the eclipse and started tuning. Now I looking for someone who is wanting to the same thing.

its a nice car but im almost sure nobody will do a flat out switch, i say sell it and use that to buy a stock max or anyother car that is more professional. anywhoo good luck on the sale/purchase of a car/business.

brs2c

Thanks for the luck. If anyone has a car that they would trade along with me throwing in a little cash, I will consider it if it is the right car (meaning 02-03), not sure if that helps or not.

when u rebuilt it, you built it to stock specs? or did you use connecting rods/pistons/rings for air induction?
what is the compression ratio?
if it's to stock spec, did you just use a thicker headgasket to lower compression?

brs2c

I built it to stock specs (8.5:1 compression), but stock pistons and rods are good for around 450hp (IMO a fwd with more than 400whp when the fattest tires it can fit are 245's is pointless). I did use clevite bearings and ARP head bolts. The HG is from felpro (found in autozone and so on) and is stock thickness but is a metal organic compound. This HG combined with the ARP head bolts torqued to 90ft lbs makes a great combination, and should hold up to 30psi.

The balance shafts were also removed and plugged during the rebuild, which supposedly frees up at least 10whp (there are two balance shafts in the 4g63 engine that are 3.5lb rotating rods driven by the timing belt, these rods are meant to absorb all engine vibration). The steering wheel vibrates to the tune of the engine a little bit at idle, but not excessively (I actually like it as it feels like a beast)

GST is stock with a turbo, so the stock engine is made for forced induction.

i didn't know that. thought only one was gsx with awd
thanks
but when he said 8.5:1, i figured it out!
