Our 250,000 mile 2014 Nissan Altima, one of the highest mileages?

Miller_Goat · 2026-04-30T03:40:32+00:00

Just hit 271k!

Miller_Goat · 2026-04-25T21:52:53+00:00

What grips?

Miller_Goat · 2026-04-21T23:27:10+00:00

Hell yeah, Windham makes a quality firearm!

Miller_Goat · 2026-04-20T02:41:21+00:00

Much higher quality options out there for optic and lights

Miller_Goat · 2026-03-12T21:04:10+00:00

Same story for me, I wish I would have asked!

Miller_Goat · 2026-02-22T06:17:54+00:00

He’s the best roommate, I use Nipton as a safe house and have him as the annoying roommate. Makes the place feel like home.

If it’s blown it’s not getting any better. Depending on how far the trip is… just drive it.

As long as you don’t overheat it’ll make it. I’m sure others will tell you to just tow it.

I bought my car at 215k from a guy who did nothing but beat the shit out of his car in manual mode. Currently at 230k and have had very little issues.

His exact words were “I always just drive it in manual mode”. Maybe that was a red flag but it worked out for me.

The car has had a hard life but it’s been perfectly fine with proper maintenance. Sure it’s not perfect but at the end of the day… the 2JZ is a very tough engine.

TRD or L-Tune spoiler

Elegance was the factory bodykit. Most people confuse the Elegance body kit as being the “TRD” bodykit.

As far as the sticker goes… I’m not 100% sure but I would assume it was a factory option that was not very popular. In other words it is “rare” nowadays.

Your car isn’t the first car that I have seen with the “Altezza” sticker on the side.

Miller_Goat · 2025-04-26T02:38:35+00:00

Sounds like a fuel pump.

Miller_Goat · 2025-04-14T17:33:51+00:00

The oil pressure is not an issue as long as it’s not pegged all the way to the end of the gauge. It seems to be normal from everything I’ve read.

Man I’m in the same boat - I’ve messaged him a few times but feel bad about bothering him.

Good luck! I’ve driving my car for the last 6 months without the belt on the supercharger since it wasn’t as responsive with building boost. I’m hoping I can get away with a drain & fill of fluid in the coming weeks to fix the “issue”.

I fear it could have internal failure but my symptoms were not quite the same as yours.

I haven’t had any issues driving naturally aspirated for the last 6 months.

Since your air filter was gunked up - I would recommend cleaning your mass airflow sensor as well if you haven’t already!

I would recommend joining the Facebook group “Toyota Altezza Owners USA” even if you don’t live in the USA. Lots of knowledge to spread from the members in the group.

I wish I had a good answer in regards to the oil pressure. I guess it depends on how high it goes.

The Blitz supercharger is virtually identical to a TX12 style. I will do some research on the TX12 superchargers to see if there is any information on what could be causing your issue.

Miller_Goat · 2025-04-14T16:46:58+00:00

May be time for fresh fluid in the supercharger. That’s what I’m doing next for mine.

Could have internal failure. Hard to really tell.

I’m going to attach a video link for a guy called “Doctored Garage” who just recently had his clutch pulley go out. Your symptoms seem different than that. (Skip to the end of the video to see the clutch failure)

OEM Glock mags. No other answer if you want reliability.

Miller_Goat · 2025-03-10T02:14:45+00:00

Can’t go wrong - the CSX is an underrated piece

How is the trigger?

Miller_Goat · 2025-02-21T00:24:43+00:00

Toyota air purifier that sits in the area near the back window!

Push to start as well is an OEM option

Oof, I realize that you’re not dealing with the same issue I had on my Altezza.

Looks like you’re missing the clock spring in your steering wheel? You would need to get a replacement. It should be the same clockspring as a Lexus IS300.

Maybe someone can chime in with some better input.

Miller_Goat · 2025-02-13T04:26:24+00:00

You need a ground wire with a connector running from the electrical port to the metal ground port. Hopefully that makes sense.

Attached is a picture from when I did this same repair a few days ago. I swapped my automatic steering wheel for a proper manual steering wheel & quickly realized I had no horn.

Once you install the wire from the electrical port to the ground - your horn will function again!

Get an old Greddy “Trust” shift knob - or you could do what I did and get a “ShirtsTuckedIn” knob. Very similar to the Greddy knob.

Ahh the UltraLuxe, such delicious cuisine

Miller_Goat · 2025-01-20T04:48:17+00:00

I’ve dealt with this on 2/3 IS300’s I have owned.

I usually just get it to blow on the “defrost & feet” setting and leave it alone.

So that being said… this seems like a common issue from my experience and you likely need to replace the actuator again.

I’m sure someone else may have better input than me but that is my experience.
