'96 Nissan Maxima 3.0 SE

[Stexer91]

I love Max's. I have a 99 Sterling Mist SE, 5 speed as well. I hate the stock suspension, basically a 4x4. I have Tokico Struts with Intrax Springs sitting on G35 wheels. Her name is Jennifer :P

[xxitsmyfault]

@Stexer91 BADASS!! They definitely deserve names ;)

[zAoxiNNN]

Please please please please please tell me the name of the sickass song on this video! Pleaseeeeee!

[xxitsmyfault]

@zAoxiNNN honestly i forgot :( I think it might be fall of troy, though. this video is wayyy too old and I don't even have the hard file of it anymore to check.

[zAoxiNNN]

@xxitsmyfault  =( if anyone remembers please tell me!

[fallensk8r18]

I FUCKING LOVE YOU HOLY SHIT!!

u r prolly the hottest thing ever.

ur a sexy ass chick who can drive a stick....god damn!

[xxitsmyfault]

@fallensk8r18 haha, why thank you :D

[CockneyRebel1979]

@xxitsmyfault I'd love to see ya reverse that car, but with NO music this time, so I can hear what that car sounds like in reverse. :)

[xxitsmyfault]

@CockneyRebel1979 It's totaled :(

[xxitsmyfault]

I know it is, I almost reported them but my dad said they're scary people and I should just pretend I never noticed. I'm driving a 2003 Maxima SE now.. I want to get G35 wheels for it, right now it's just all stock. But I plan to do G35 wheels, black tint obviously.. and it's pearl white.. i kind of want to get a bra for it, I know they're bad but.. aha.. I don't know I think it'd look nice on it. and probably a new interior at some point. I hate the whole tan with black and beige seats? wtf?

[Zippythpinhead]

Nice wheels. Sorry to hear about your loss. Wanna sell those wheels?

[xxitsmyfault]

the lip melted off them.. lol.. i went form like 60 to stop in a couple seconds. it was a bad wreck.

[Zippythpinhead]

Ouch! Well at least you're still breathin. I have a 96 GLE. swaped motors a little while back and added a few bolt ons and some JWT cams. She is mad fun and sounds mean as hell. I smoke hondas all day long. Runs consistant hight 12s in the 1/4 @ 119-122mph.

[xxitsmyfault]

BAD ASS. well they're motegi trak-lites. and actually my dad bought replacement wheels for the front which were the ones that melted off and we put them on my 96 PIECE OF SHIT GLE but i sold it for 1k to somebody who turned the miles back and put it back up for sale for three with my wheels on it :( boooo

[Zippythpinhead]

Thats mad illegal, my buddy got like 8 months for doing the same thing on a civic. Its fraud lol. I think im gonna score some 17in 2k4 infinity or maxima wheels. Saw some on craigslist for 400 with good yoko rubber. What are you driving now? Maxima? Please dont say honda.

[xxitsmyfault]

I know it is, I almost reported them but my dad said they're scary people and I should just pretend I never noticed. I'm driving a 2003 Maxima SE now.. I want to get G35 wheels for it, right now it's just all stock.

I don't know I think it'd look nice on it. and probably a new interior at some point. I hate the whole tan with black and beige seats? wtf?

[Zippythpinhead]

Those G35 wheels are hot. I always opt for the leather interior. If you're lookin to get rid of those SE wheels I would take them off your hands in a heartbeat. Missed out on a set this week. : ( bummer. White Maxima + Limo tint = MAD SEXY.

[xxitsmyfault]

that's what i was thinking! well how much were you looking to spend on them? i don't even know the going rate.. i just want to make enough on them to be able to afford g35 wheels hahah..

[th3ha1og0d]

wow. sounds very ricey from the outside

[xxitsmyfault]

Wow, never heard that one ;) I guess you'll get it from every side of the spectrum huh?

[rohanb2]

No, it doesn't really. Compare that sound to a Civic, it's nothing like a ricer.

[xxitsmyfault]

:) i agree

[Hazafan88]

Can someone help me figure out an electrical problem? I have a 1997 Maxima, and my alternator goes out faster than it should, about every 12 to 18 months. Just wondering if its an electrical problem. I love my car a lot and I plan on having it for a long time.

[xxitsmyfault]

I have a 96 and it does the same thing. Honestly I just recommend you go get it looked at, I assume it's an electrical problem though. My maxima (not the one in the video as it's totaled now) but the one I have now will drain the battery if it isn't driven for a few days.

:/ it's weird.

[Hazafan88]

Thanks! yeah, its weird and I don't know why it does that. I will have to get it checked out. Is this a gliche in the Maximas produced between 1996-1999? I've of this problem attacking Maxima's made during those years. I'm not dure if it would be safe to drive it cross country though. Like from San Francisco to Cleveland maybe. It has 190k on it, but other than that alternatoer problem, it runs execellent! Its a GLE.

[96vqSE5]

ALSO the GLE's have ELECTRIC motor mounts.. might have something to do with it.

[Hazafan88]

Oh yeah. Do you think it can get fixed? Even if I get it looked at? I've never had the battery problem you described. Does your '96 have a hard time starting up in cold weather?

[xxitsmyfault]

It did have a hard time starting up in cold weather, and mine is a GLE too. My SE had no problems, but my GLE seems to be contaminated with problems - it's ridiculous. It could always be who's owned it though, because the car I have now has had several owners - like, an unknown number or owners.. and my last (totaled/in this video) Maxima was owned by my immediate family since my parents bought it off the showroom floor. I'm sure it can be fixed, it could be anything really but most

[Hazafan88]

Well, my GLE was owned by my mother for 9 years before she gave it to me. There are some things that I need to fix because my mother, I love her to death, didn't take good care of the Maxima as far as appearance. The antenna is gone, she needs a paint job (I was gonna go to maaco and get a cheap one. I am in school. :D) The original factory installed radio doesn't work anymore, so I was going to go to bestbuy or walmart and get a new radio installed. Also, my front-driver window doesn't work.

[xxitsmyfault]

wow my other comment didn't post now i'm too lazy to rewrite it..

but yeah the windows thing is lame.. i'm glad it's only my back right window that doesn't work hahaha.. cause it doesn't affect me.

[Hazafan88]

I need my window to work! LOL! I live in central california. Its very hot here in the summer and very warm at night. So when I don't have the air on during the day, I roll the window down at night.

[96vqSE5]

that is weird, might just be some electrical short OR maybe your buying bad alternators lol - I've had two maxima's and i've never had to change out an alternator, and they've both been over 200k miles on them.. with ORIGIONAL alternators, are you pushing a system? SUBS?

[Hazafan88]

Nope. I think it is an electrical short.

[xxitsmyfault]

We found out with mine, the battery problem was caused by the stereo never fully turning off. It was hooked up wrong by a previous owner and it doesn't turn on or off on it's own. You have to manually do everything with it. HOWEVER, it turns black as soon as you turn the car off so it's weird I guess. Needless to say, my car has been sitting in my sideyard for over a month now..

[Hazafan88]

The Maxima you have now is just sitting in your side yard? And the previous owner must've put a new radio in it, because the factory installed one wouldn't do that, I think.

[xxitsmyfault]

I know it's a new one, ha. The factory one was bose and I'm not sure why he'd replace it in the first place but he was retarded I guess. Hah. Yeah it just chills there, my friend moved down and we drive her honda around. (I'm such a sinner.) LOLOL

[Hazafan88]

LOL! My radio is factory installed, but I can't figure out why the tape deck and cd player died and why the radio display goes in and out. In fact, the radio is the only thing that works on that radio. So when I am drving, thats the only music I will hear. At least until I install a new one. LOL! And yeah, you're such a sinner! XD

[xxitsmyfault]

I know, daaang. It runs so much better than my Nissan though! (i've now guaranteed that I'm going to hell..) HAHAH

[Hazafan88]

LOL! Yeah. After college, I am looking into getting a newer nissan, like an altima. If I can't get that, I want to get a truck. I am 6ft. 3in.

[xxitsmyfault]

haha, then don't get an altima! my 5'11" father can barely fit in the 02 altima :P you should definitely get a titan.. cuzzzz.... we have one and i adore it. :D we have the 2008 titan LE with the towing package, loaded full size 4 door.. i loveee it :D

[Hazafan88]

Hows the gas mileage on the Titan?

[xxitsmyfault]

18 highway 16 city i believe.. it's one of the fastest trucks on the market@314 HP and lighter than most trucks out today. I blow people away when the lights turn green because everybody stares like they're confused about how fast that truck goes. or they just think i'm crazy. i'm entertained by it though. i'd get another titan anyday.

[Hazafan88]

I may consider that. I am in school , so I will have to way out my options on that. But its sounds pretty cool! And pretty damn fast for truck!

[xxitsmyfault]

hahah yeah, well they're going for 14,000 OFF right now in florida! you can get one for like 10 grand right now! It's RIDICULOUS! a brand NEW one too. idk where you're from.. but seriously. ohmygod, if i had credit i'd buy 10.. hahah.. no not really.

[jamking31]

Titans are the best! I drive a 96 Maxima and it's nothing compared to my dads Titan. I can roast people in either one but that Titan can blow away most cars these days.

[midgetmayo]

nice driving

[xxitsmyfault]

thanks

[maxima8626]

haha my fault 4 da bro comment. thanks 4 da tips.

[maxima8626]

Hey bro how did u get da maxima decals off the back? im tryin 2 do mine but afraid it will scratch da car. wat did u use??

[xxitsmyfault]

first off, i'm a girl. hahaha. but i take that as a compliment dude. take a small screwdriver adn hook it behind the emblem without hitting the paint and lift with firm steady pressure till it pops off. preferably when it's hot out or after being heated by a heat gun or hairdryer.

it's very tedious but very possible.

just make sure it's heated because the shit holding it on is more vulnerable then.

[xxitsmyfault]

oh, and if there's any residue left rub it off with your fingertip and then buff it with some wax.

[kingrichard336]

hey not to knock this chick but the easiest and safest way to get it off is use good old fashioned heavy dental floss and make a sawing action across the back of the letters it will take them right off to get the rest of the adhesive use wd40 i did this with my max and its easy as hell

[maxima8626]

Sry 4 ur loss

[xxitsmyfault]

haha thanks, i'm sorry for it too. =[

[JesseAndMike]

Nice car!  Our cousin used to have a car like that! :)

[xxitsmyfault]

thanks =D

[ilalsm]

i feel your pain..my 96 max got sold and the guy rolled it 3 days after he bought mine... :(

[xxitsmyfault]

oooh god =[

i'm in love with that body style

which is why i got another one...

ugh, and mine that i have now is shit.

so i'm now trying to find another one.

[xxitsmyfault]

with accents in the dash&door panels matching the exterior. it's going to be raw. my dad's going to teach me to drift (i dunno how) and drive a turbo because he says they're muuchhh different than regular. like, once they hit 4,000 rpm they like slam you into the seat &start accelerating like a millino times faster. i dunno. haha. he says you have to let off the gas when you hit 4000 rpm.

[xxitsmyfault]

the other maxima is going to look exactly the same as "max" except the other maxima is automatic, unfortunately. and it's the LE not the SE.

[napalm84]

isn't the le the same as se stock? I only know the engine with 190hp.

[xxitsmyfault]

it's the same except for it's the luxury edition so basically it's just leather interior with chrome accents on the outside

[napalm84]

oh, aight...

about your earlier comment, you gonna drift in a maxima or the 240sx?

[xxitsmyfault]

240sx, it's rear wheel drive.

[napalm84]

aight man, good luck with your cars

[xxitsmyfault]

jea i'll probably have vids of the 240 up

[napalm84]

aight i'll check em out

[alk3669]

you mean GLE?

[xxitsmyfault]

uh no. the car i'm driving is an SE. the car i have now is a GLE.

learn yaaaa stuff before you try to correct me.

[alk3669]

im talking about the car you have now, you said you had an LE...

[xxitsmyfault]

oh yeah, thanks. that is fasho what i meant. i think mixed it up cuz we have a 2007 titan le

[alk3669]

when are you going to post a video of your new max?

[xxitsmyfault]

she's a piece of shit, so... never. hahahah.

[alk3669]

haha what about the 240

[xxitsmyfault]

we haven't done anything with it yet and most likely wont as my parents are relocating to florida and we'll probably just give the 240 project to somebody else.

[driftkid19]

can i have it? i have been wanting a 240 for years now.

[napalm84]

yeah man, great car. i got a 95 maxima 5 speed (just a temporary car until i get my trans am). At first i thought the car was slow, but it really surprised me with performance.

[xxitsmyfault]

yeah the vq30de is one of the best nissan puts out.

the only thing better, that i can think of for a sedan is the vq35de... which that came later. heh. but jea it's a great engine.

&&&&&it's too bad that car's totaled. i miss it. =[

[napalm84]

what car do u drive now?

[xxitsmyfault]

I have a 240sx and another 96 maxima.

the 240sx is gettin a twin turbo&pearl orange, dark pink, granny smith apple green, or electric yellow paintjob this winter. along with that dull metal type of rims.. i don't nkow what it's called.. eh. they look like sterling silver basically... and exhaust&racing seats, we're taking the back seat out&the seats are going to be in accordance to the exterior colour along

[SensoryArts]

nice car, that's what i have. is that in york, PA by any chance?

[xxitsmyfault]

no it's in Wisconsin, and it's totaled now. :[

[MIpuppet]

[xxitsmyfault]

[maier34]

[xxitsmyfault]

[maier34]

[xxitsmyfault]
