    The maxima transmission will not fit without custom mountings. but even then you going to have problems fitting the tranny to the altima. you don't need to swop the engine but you are going to have to strip your motor if you want more power without a turbo. Do the following for alot of power: Cut your camshafts. gasflow your cylinder heads. rebore your engine block. strenghten your conrods and pistons. balnce the engine and put in a high performance crankshafts. a little costly but if you import the parts from australia then you can get them alot cheaper. this is going to give you a lot of power so you going to have to change your clutch to handle the extra torque. goodluck with the modifying.... kick some *** on the street. you going to have more than enough power to do give the 350Z a run for the hills.

    if you want to do that,you have to change the camshaft,crankshaft and the piston of your car.next,put the ECU into your car so that your car can be program correctly.and finally installed level 3 nitrous oxide on your car.

    hhmmmm. not big into imports...but i will leave ya this tidbit. if its your only car leave it as is and buy a "toy" car to play with. much easier and no big deal if the toy is broken. learned that lesson the hard way!
