Performance Cold Air Intake System - Nissan Maxima 3.0L V6 (1995-1999)

Rediscover Your Maxima's Sporting Spirit

Your fourth-generation Maxima earned its "4DSC" (4-Door Sports Car) badge with a smooth, powerful V6 that defined its era. But the restrictive factory airbox prevents your VQ engine from delivering its full potential. This performance cold air intake replaces your stock components with a high-flow system that feeds your 3.0L V6 cold, dense air for optimized combustion. Experience the responsive acceleration and engaging performance that made the Maxima a legendary sport sedan.

Simply remove your factory airbox and install this direct-fit replacement system. Basic screwdrivers and socket wrenches are all you need.
