When you have a car such as this Maxima, the engine is not the most important factor and so the owner has only done the minimal of power improvements. But instead has concentrated on the appearance of the engine and to that end when the hood is lifted the condition of the engine and surrounding mechanics is joy to look at. In fact, this engine bay is probably cleaner now than it was when the car first rolled out of the factory over twenty years ago.

Even the bodywork has not escaped the import builders style and design, with racing stripes in red that contrast with the pure white bodywork. The only sign that the owner of this has racing designs is the huge spoiler that stands tall on the boot lid. This Nissan Maxima is a real nice looking car; it has a shape that is almost timeless too. So even though this car over twenty years old just by examining the car as it stands there a passer by could be forgiven for thinking that it is current model and that just goes to show why choosing the right to build is all important.

These are specs and the features for the well looked after 1990 modified Nissan Maxima:

Engine Modification – polished/ported heads, over-sized valves, Unorthodox Racing under drive pulley, 2.5″ exhaust with Magnaflo muffler and cat, cold air intake by Warpspeed Performance w/ K&N filter

Suspension – Sprint springs, KYB struts, Megan Racing front strut bar, Blehmco rear strut bar, Blehmco front lower tie bar, Blehmco fully adjustable rear control arms, Suspension Techniques front sway bar, Addco rear sway bar, Warpspeed Performance stage 3 sub frame connectors

Exterior Modification – Fibre Images carbon fibre hood, JSP America carbon fibre wing, Carbon Creations carbon fibre front canards, 1991 BMW M3 headlights, 1995 Nissan Skyline Taillights,

Nissan Maxima Mesh Grille Insert

Product Description of the Brand New 3 piece chrome like plated mesh grille insert kit:

This is a Brand New 3 piece chrome like plated mesh grille insert kit. This grille will fit all Nissan Maxima models from 1995-1996. This mesh grille insert is for the upper grille & bumper. Note: This is not to replace your factory grille; it is simply an insert to change the current look of your car because this grille is simply an overlay. Therefore if you do not have the same front end as the picture this will not work. The mesh grille insert will attach straight on top of your factory grille using the provided wiring harness. The mesh has a diamond style pattern. This is very popular in the automotive scene. The mesh will not restrict airflow into your engine. The diamond mesh pattern has opens of 1/4″ by 3/8″. The mesh is a 20 gauge material meaning that it is strong yet it is also pliable making this a great product to work with. The mesh is a chrome ‘like’ mesh because it is not true chrome but is resembles it because of the shinny finish.

This is the ultimate retro machine, it has the styling from the eighties when Nissan had only recently shed its Datsun skin and turned into the one of the most successful motor companies on the planet. This is the car that launched Nissan into the big time and unfortunately these days all of those millions of cars sold mean nothing.

So this Nissan Maxima is an important car in its own right and not only that that reminds us of how things were all of those years ago when the industry was on the up. Its styling is old school with some modern additions that really bring the car up to date in the performance stakes.

There is one seriously cool feature about this car and its sits under the hood, just look at that fantastic looking piece of work, the red blends in with the silver and the black of the engine, as well as the rest of the car.

Secret Weapon Intake (Nissan | Maxima | 02-06)

Product Description

The air filter can be totally taken apart and cleaned. The foam is denser and more thicker than the Dragon filter.

The velocity stank inside the air filter is a TRUE VELOCITY STACK. The Air filter has Ram Air capability, by hooking up the hose to the top of the air filter.

The intake has another Air Passage way inside the intake pipe to create an Air Fusion, imagine 2 different pathways of air inside the intake pipe, one air travelling in pathway #1 going 2 x faster than pathway #2. When the two different pathways of airflow meet at the end of the pipe they create a fusion effect which enhances the AIR SPEED of the by 3 times.

The Secret Weapon Intake Systems is a result of countless hours of testing and tuning of air intake velocity, Air mass and Airspeed for each vehicle application. The Result, an intake system that performs better than any Cold Air Intake, but with a Short Ram. It is possible by Weapon*R’s Patent Pending Speed Velocity theory, by creating a higher airspeed in the intake path you increase air mass and airspeed, which greatly increase horsepower.

This is possible by creating two different paths of airflow, both flowing at different airspeeds, due to the tubing diameter in which the air is travelling. Now when the 2 different paths of air meet, they create a vacuum, which is where the airspeed starts to multiply, forcing more air into the engine at a higher rate, creating more horsepower.

The Secret Weapon Intake Systems are carefully CNC mendrel bent out of 6061 Aluminium, and then Hand Tig Welded in sections to ensure a constant balance in airflow, regulation in airspeed, positive seal and proper fitment. Each one of these intake systems are carefully tuned, by matching the engines displacement, air intake capacity and airspeed to the intake systems tube size, length and secondary pathway tubing diameters to maximize the full potential of the SECRET WEAPON INTAKE SYSTEM.

This Intake is Matched with our New

Inside the car has been treated to a nice couple of touches such as the custom gear shift, and custom built dash kit that happens to be subtle but at the same time looks cool and is probably a little more functional that the original version.

Under the hood the 3.5 V6 engine has been clean and polished to fit in with the huge amount of steel pipes and inlets that feed the precious nitrous oxide into the engine. One other thing that stands out is the custom engine cover.

Clear Protection Film: 95% Light Transmission

Product Description

This Rvinyl Headlight Protection Film kits are designed to protect your vehicle”s headlamps from road debris, weather elements, salt and UV discoloration.

Rvinyl kits apply as easily as a decal, but are repositionable during the application process using a wet application method and conform to your vehicle”s lights by using a heat source. If you have a hair dryer, you can install this product. Years of outdoor exposure degrade OEM lights, turn signals and fog lights. Scratches and UV radiation turn headlights yellow and milky-white over time, leading up to a 50% degradation in foot light candle output. Rvinyl headlight protection films prevents this and are non-protective tint film however does not provide a level of protection from significant scratches or UV radiation. 1 in 6 vehicles on the road will require headlight replacements. OEM composite lights cost in excess of $600.00 to replace. Rvinyl Protection kits may be removed with out damaging existing lights, increasing resale value and protecting leased vehicles. Rvinyl offers two types of clear protection film, a lite version designed to be installed by the average user and a professional version which is five times thicker, and designed for professional installers. Both protect your headlights, but the processional version is specifically engineered for off-road use vehicles and race tracks.

This could be your average car on the road, but take a closer look and see that it has had some extensive work done on it, but this work is subtle there are no power bulges or flared arches and flashy paint jobs, after this is a Nissan Maxima.

However, this is a nice looking car; it has had attention to detail, which makes all of the difference. Sure, this is not going win any races, but that is not the purpose in any case. This is private car and the work that has been done it subject to the likes and dislikes of the owner, as it should be.
