Now: 1992 Maxima GXE, 1993 SE (VE) Engine, 1996 LSD 5 Speed Transmission, 1993 White speedometer cluster (145mpg vs 125, that's the main reason other than the beauty of the white :]), and other little differences.
Still working out the kinks, but it drives and sounds amazing
You sure on that info there bud? The 95+ maximas have the VQ30DE engine, the VQ series engines have a different engine/to/transmission bolt patterns vs. the VE30DE engine. Just wondering how you got it to mount up..
