This got me excited to finish working on my MX83. A couple of notes here: Transmission is an A340E four-speed, OD switch controls the car switching to 4th gear which is over 1:1 so its considered "overdrive." These are also pretty good transmissions for drag racing applications and they do have a reasonable amount of aftermarket support with performance kits that are rated to 850 HP. A manual is better for just about everything though. Also first gen Maxima was sold in the early 80s based off the 280ZX platform, it was RWD with an L28E and marketed as a Datsun, Datsun by Nissan, and Nissan.
note: #0000 steel wool for buffing and polishing chrome. The finest, thinnest grade of wire wool. #0 - #000 is too coarse and will scratch. Always use only #0000. Enjoyed the video!
I was rocking that 15 years ago...omg what a flashback...I still have one but went 2jz and r154 6244 turbo...emu original stand alone...no cage full interior
The mx83 did come with a no sun roof option, mine had a slick top, and my mx73 also is a slick top they’re just rare, and mx83 had manual seats on both sides
I use stock cressida rack no spacers...xm no accro arms factory everything yet did get lower arm maxed out with positive camper bc coil over to the ++ side. But makes tire poke...use body lines on that...caster adjust import...actually all i adust is caster now from track to track...cressida easy
I started focus on a 92 1uz all factory auto sc400. If got and ideas cool...i do have a w158 out of is300 in garage...any inputs ok...want as daily but dlush and clean...
390 diff it go 177 if have over 500 hp 7m or jz. I just kept lifting heads on my 7m with cosmetic head gasket and arp studs torque to 130lps...that why when 2 a 2jz...2 more bolts...but got 700hp for 6 monts with a gtx45 at 25 pounds ...melted everything
Fyi if mk3 or cress guys run a 430 diff with a r154 top speed is 155 hitting limiter and 3100 rmp ish going 70 on freeway...here to help my toyota family
Run 17 inch tires 225 in front with 275 in rear ...full angle kit with 6 puck unsprung clutch no ac to work or in Houston traffic....had 4 of them drifting..last one not drift...parts hard 2 representing houston tx baby. find. Guy in dominion Republic makes body kits cheep but shipping who knows...but maybe try him....
Parts are up in the air. There's a decent amount of economy aftermarket stuff but quality varies. lot of quality drift parts though. It's an older car so stuff is gonna break and working on it can be different than newer cars.
If you hammer your antenna it'll be able to sit down flush and pop back up just make sure if it doesn't pop out pull it out and hammer it down flush if you're using it lol
I got the 0 ackro arms from xcessive and that and welded mk3 ..390 makes traffic fun...u turns or parking makes everyone look at my grandpa car....i just say she old and broke
@@heybentai no it doesnt smell the problem is that I can hear that the ac has strong wind thrust but the thrust is weak so I am guessing the evaporator needs cleaning
@@Userloading its not kind of noise but i can hear the sound of wind blowing from infront of the passenger seat. Inside the cabin. So i was guessing it is the evaporator needs cleaning to allow the air to blow stronger

Got cress that kills it and left body stock...bc im old
Want yall to know same thing..took me 10 years
Brother i want to know how to clean the evaporator
If it smells when you turn on the ac you can get a foam spray and shoot it up the evaporator drain hose.
@@heybentai no it doesnt smell the problem is that I can hear that the ac has strong wind thrust but the thrust is weak so I am guessing the evaporator needs cleaning
Let me call in an expert.
Not an evaporator issue. Maybe the blower motor. What kind of noise is it? Does it get stronger or weaker depending on the speed? @@ItsmePrinceShalan
@@Userloading its not kind of noise but i can hear the sound of wind blowing from infront of the passenger seat. Inside the cabin. So i was guessing it is the evaporator needs cleaning to allow the air to blow stronger
Say im supid but works
