Hello, I recently purchased a 1994 nissan maxima GXE from somone local and was wondering if I got a good deal. I am not new to automotive performance but I am new to turbo motors as well as imports. I've only built supercharged motors before.

Here is a list of mods and little information about the vehicle.

Engine -
1994 vg30dett 300zx twin turbo W series block good for 400 +hp
Garret t3/t4 turbo 60 trim currently set a 10 psi
Huge front mount intercooler with 2.75 pipe
18 psi spring bov
port and polished heads port matched to intake
one of a kind intake for max flow and I/C pipe routing
390cc tt injectors on custom rail
Walboro 255 fuel pump
Aeromotive 100 fuel pressure reg.
3" exhaust /cat delete
List of new parts in engine bay- ngk plugs, 8mm plug wires, cap, rotor, all belts including timing belt, fuel filter, oil filter, seals(front, rear,both cams and injectors),
gaskets (heads, valve cover, intake, throttle body, exhaust and timing cover).
Drivetrain -
1990 SE 5spd Trans
Short throw shifter
dxd stage 3 six puck clutch
lightened fidanza flywheel
new master and slave cylinder
new trans mounts
SE rear wheel disc swap( has four wheel disc brakes now)
new rear brake lines and new pads all around
new 18" rims and new tires
new springs and monroe shocks = a 2" drop
Body-
Black body is decent with no rust
SE black interior swap
new head liner
4 point harnesses
white faced guages
trunk mounted battery
The bad-
Airconditioning and cruise control was deleted for turbo setup
theres no radio or speakers in the car
rear passenger window doesn't roll down
Car runs flawlessly and pulls very hard through all gears and should be a little over 300hp. With new fuel managment motor will push 400 + hp easily.

Above is what was listed in the add, he also added a 3" Apexi catless exhaust after he posted that. I bought it for $3500
