^ it's not entirely out of the question. toyota did it with the camry/avalon/es300 in the mid and late 1990's, to an extent. there were slight ECU variations and exhaust modifications that skewed the #s just enough to set them apart. it's still questioned today whether they even had different fuel/timing maps, and the manufacturer just didnt claim different numbers, which were only different by 10-15hp at the most.

i'd see the maxima ecu working, but make sure the ecu's can drive the rest of the car, like the navigation/instrument clusters/ac systems etc, all that crap is packed into an ecu these days, they could be different.


and my friend's gf has an altima, theyre nice and seem to be pretty good daily cars. that black one fastforward posted is pretty hot and clean. i dunno about it running 13's but if so sweet.
