Yeah, I've seen you around the Maxima forums.
And I've read up on that car as well. Pretty cool! As far as the crossmember, what I did on my 92 Maxima was measure the distance between the radiator support beam to the area where my exhaust is near the firewall. I found that the A32 crossmember was perfect for my 92 Maxima. The A33 was too long I believe. So I made some brackets with 2 studs sticking out and just welded them to the car. Now the A32 crossmember bolts up just like stock.
I'm sure the B13 is a lot smaller, so a modified crossmember may be needed. I've also seen the B13 VQ35 from PR. I'm not sure what his setup is with the crossmember and mounts though.
But I'd love to swap in a built 2009+ Maxima VQ35DE. I bet I can easily squeeze out over 350whp all motor.
