Yeah, if the 4WS went bad, there were literally no replacement parts for it. Good thing was if it failed, it basically reverted to 2 wheel steering.

I had a red 1990 on 17" 5Zigen Heidfelds. It was chipped running 14lbs of boost through a Greddy Profec-A, HKS Intercooler pipe kit and 3" custom exhaust from the downpipe on. The power numbers you quoted were supposed to be at the crank. Mine was making 145 hp and 214 ft/lb at the wheels. I think because it was a…

That's very interesting! AAA provides so many services, it's probably worth asking them no matter what state you live in, if they have advice for titling and registering a foreign car.

Awwww, I was not aware of that.

Here he is making a cameo in the Z32 commercial

They used to. When the GT-R was first released here, one of the Carmax dealerships in Maryland (I think) was also a new Nissan dealership. They were on their website for the "No hassle, no haggle" price of just over $70K. Quite reasonable if you recall it was the same time when regular Nissan dealers were marking them…

What was the Isuzu analog to the Passport? I was aware Honda cribbed the late model Trooper for an Acura SUV years ago, but I had no idea they shared the Passport with Isuzu?

They don't make rules, but their rulings often times create precedents affecting how similar trials will be handled in the future.

I agree with you 100%, but only if it's of the golden variety.

2 keys, one to unlock more horsepower? Where have I heard that before.

Sorry off-topic I know, but apparently you've never seen the Taurus SHO intake manifold:

Escort Cosworth FTW!

I wholeheartedly agree. It seems to me that massive public investment has really hampered modern companies as common sense give way to short term profits that negatively affect long term vision. I remember reading not so long ago that Best Buy's founder wanted to regain control of the company and take it private so he…

I agree, there should be some limits to how little power a car should have, but shouldn't effective transmission and final drive gearing help with that? My dad had a then new '91 Nissan Sentra with a 1.6L 4-cylinder making 110 hp. It was easily capable of nearly 30 mpg in city and easily reached 40 mpg on the highway…

He has a house he inherited which for most people, not owning their house is their largest expense. Detroit property values are from what I can see, not that great so basically selling the house may be a non-option for him. At $10.55 an hour, owning his own home and not renting or is probably the best option he has. I…

You must be a former/current maxima.org member. ;-)

I understand this is purely my opinion, but I happen to think the '05-'06 Altima SE-R was quite the looker.

Thanks for pointing that out. As an owner of a '98 4th generation Maximo, I'm always amazed at how the configured the passenger compartment within the confines of what I consider to be a fairly compact (not the EPA rating) body relative to today's large sedans. The striking thing for me is how cramped some of today's…
