Rascal, I think you're getting VQ and VG mixed up. Similar, but not the same. Follow along:

95(?) and up (4th and 5th gen) Maxima = VQ
Z31 & Z32 (84-96 Z) = VG
Any nissan with a 3.5L = VQ

5th gen is 2000 and up, if I'm not mistaken.

I love my WRX, but when I go visit my parents, I'm cruising in the 01 Maxima with leather. Smooth power delivery and nice automatic.
