from the front grill....thats probably a 92-94

but only from that...you can't tell if its the SE.

from the way the engine bay looks from that angle...it looks like a VG30 SOHC.

more than likely a GXE.

( looks like I see plug wires )..on the VE30DE you dont see plug wires.

I wish I had the money to upgrade my 89 Maxima. I would strip everything from interrior to exterrior and upgrade it, along with the motor to make it more powerful. It would look really badass. My car is a piece of shit right now LOL.

@Donpire You don't need to change the oil pump, NA VG oil pump is sufficient unless you plan on revving over 7,000rpm. Also, you don't need coolant lines for the turbo if you don't run a watercooled turbo.

@strafe501 Gxe VG motor is rated at 160hp and the 92 - 94 se Ve motor is rated at 190 hp

I had a 89 SE 5 speed...not turbo though....but it still would get up and go

I miss it :(

[strafe501]

How much WHP do these make stock?

Nice vid I got a 1992 se 5 speed. It's kitted out lowered with some sweet rims and a corvette spoiler. I also have shaved door handles and remote start. It's not the fastest in the world, but it looks sweet. Will post some vids soon.

I did a NA2T on a Z31 for $500 with all of the parts (not including an exhaust). Easiest way for the maxima IMO would be getting a z31 wiring harness and ECU and rewiring it, or you could do nistune and tune it :P
