A Maxima a heart......

Chech out this video http://videos.streetfire.net/video/b...620170f7a9.htm

and this link http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=140505

Just though you guys would like see where your old VQ engines are finding there new homes. I personally think it's awesome, but I love the 240's. Actually I'm going in the morning to pick one up, it will be my 4th 240 purchase in the last year and a half. Too bad I keep selling them.

I might have to make a swap like this in the future. Enjoy!!



Oh, go VQ!!!!!

That's the first I've seen/heard of that swap. Now if the owner would make the car look good too.

Yeah, there are plenty of hoods out there to accomodate the swap. I'm not really sure why he choose to modify the original hood. I think it's an awesome swap. I think most people will still go with the Sr swap, but it is a good, cheaper alternative to the LS swap the others are doing.
