Rb26 maxima
hey guys I wanted to post this for a while now but just got around to it I blew my vdq30 and wanted to do something different with my maxima that i don't think anyone has tried or I have not heard of doing to a maxima so I went out and bought the rb26dett engine and and do a transplant into my maxima. I am 2 months into the project and have pics that I will post on the weekend when I go home and yes the car will be rear wheel drive.

so what rear subframe are you using? How are you planning to attach it to the body of the maxima.
what trans are you going to run?
why an rb26dett?
and why in a maxima?
how are you going to do your motor mounts and re do the front subframe?
Ill believe it when i see it.
to put pictures upload them to a site like imageshack or photobucket and then link them here.

actually it has been done, practical?, no, but very do-able.i think the guy had to even modify his firewall....but i would luv to see this project completed.

wow, will believe it when i see it. did you make it rear wheel drive or leave it front wheel? and as far as the maxima's not having a name for themselves, they do. they are known by car guys not JDM nutswingers. very interested in pics, and i guess my other question is why leave it a twin turbo, why not just make it a single?

yeah im interested in seeing pictures of the engine cradle setup, how close the steering shaft/rack is to the turbos and down pipe, how the motor sits, the rear suspension of the car, and etc.
Im assuming the firewall has been cut a good bit, ive seen a few RB swapped cars and its always a tight squeeze.

wow always thought about doing this but never thought someone would actuality go through with it.. if you do finish this project and make it a reality i think you will become close to a God in the maxima community.. but thats if it happens of course.. keep us posted and good luck with the project!!
