you're buying something to help stabilize your motor, something that has been R&D'd, not a box of sheet metal washers. anyway, good stuff Aaron. any chance you'll release one for 4th gens?

Yeah, there is a chance we can come up with something for the 4th gen in the future.
Since the lower bracket utilizes stock bolt hole locations on the 02-03 Maxima, it will not fit the 6th gen, which is a different chassis. Plus, the front engine mount design is completely different than the 5th gen. As someone else mentioned, the 6th gen front engine mount is the same as found in the Altimas.
Here is a pic of one of the prototypes installed. It should give you an idea how everything fits.
Thanks for all your support. You'll love the 4th gen Thermal Intake Spacers though. They are currently in stock.

I know this is for 2k2-2k3 but do you think this would clear the blower on a S/C set-up ?
I'm just missing the AT before I can drop the engine back, probably in 2 weeks tough. I'm very tempted to buy one and try it out, but seeing the pics I'm not sure if that would clear the blower.

Sure, anything is a possibility for the future. If there is a demand and a performance gain to be had, then it just might make it to development.
I'm sorry. The Pre-MAXUS 09 sale has ended. The Engine Torque Link kits will be available for sale at MAXUS 09 though for $140 cash only.
That's why I like to concentrate on vehicles that do not have a lot of aftermarket support, such as the Maxima and Altima.
It doesn't appear it will fit. But if you would like to give it a shot, just let me know. I'll work with you as far as accepting a return if it won't work.
Definitely. A test vehicle has already been lined up.
All our products provide a performance increase, even the 4th gen Spacers installed on the DEK. The performance increase for that setup really exceeded our original expectations.
The Intake Manifold Spacer Kit for the Frontier is specifically designed for the VQ40 engine. The UIM Spacer will be made from billet aluminum and the lowers will be made from our type of phenolic for thermal insulation purposes.
I'm a little unclear on what you mean. I always want to hear feedback from customers. Since this is off topic, send me an email at [aaron@nwpengineering.com]. I'd like to hear your suggestions. Thanks.

Yes there is. I am hoping this same exact torque link kit will fit perfectly in the 00-01 Maxima since the chassis is the same. We will know for sure after MAXUS 09. It should be easy for me to find a quick guinea pig at MAXUS!

I don't think we had a chance for anybody to test fit this kit on the 5th gen (00-01) Maxima during MAXUS 09.
I was so busy winning the All Motor Maxima Unlimited class at the Drag Showdown.
I will be tracking down a local test vehicle in NC so I can confirm fitment. If I can't find one soon, I may select a long time and reputable member on this forum to test fit the kit and report back to me with pictures.
I will keep you posted. Thanks.

I can vouch that this is a very beefy piece. I picked mine up at maxus and will install it on my 5th gen. I will do a quick test fit on a 00 maxima this afternoon. I will get some pictures this afternoon of its fittment on a 5th gen.
Also as Aaron pointed out to me, the tension rod has opposite threads unlike cheaper alternatives. This allows you to stiffen or loosen the hold without having to remove the tensioner rod and wrestleing it back in place.
Truth be told, I thought $160 or $140 seemed like alot of money also. Until you realiaze what kind of economy we are in and the depreciated value of a us dollar. I think this product is worth its price and I have high expectations of this since it is in fact a NWP product and their products are always on point.

These do bolt right on to the 00-01 maximas aswell and possibly the 95-99 models also.
I test fitted it and all the holes lined up perfectly on my 5th gen.
Be caregul turning out the old rusty screws on your cars as they tend to snap off easily. I suggest spraying them down and let soak for a night or two with some pennetrating lube.
Here are some pics,
