I actually thought the sports package had one ---- edit. Ah, I see now. Only in the 6mt I guess

Just go steal one out of a Z, then you can step up from a 3.3 to a 3.5

You do not have the premium package though.

Not really surprised about your manual passenger seat. Mine is too.

Oh, and Mike, yes, some are cloth... I've actually sat in one as a matter of fact! That was when I was still shopping around before I bought mine. I had no idea how few had cloth.
so your saying I have an 03.5? What about having the old ecu? What year did they change the ecu and add the wideband o2 sensors? Its the j5 a64 ecu which looks like a maxima ecu i have laying around. I also have the non bose audio but i have heated seats.

all this nonsense and no mpg readout? I'd gladly trade any of those features for that
6mt just don't have rear ac vents, nothing to do with premium package. If you have factory navi you'll have mpg readout.

Sounds like you have an 03.5 sedan sports + cold weather package. Your side mirrors might be heated too. Not sure about the ecu tho, IIRC the ecu was upgraded between 04 and 05. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Pretty sure they changed between the 03 and 03.5 models, though from what evo says, his seems like the old Max-style ECU. Comparing the access ports might confirm/deny this.

External TCU on 03s versus internal thereafter, I believe. Jeff92se know more about this stuff than most (including me).

I detailed an 03 sedan that had cloth seats. Boy was that an eye opener. Those were hella ugly seats!

TCU changed in 04.5

I don't know why an 03.5 would have an old ecu. I was almost sure only 03.0 had the old ecu.
Do you have a clutch fan?

Oh, and yeah, I forgot the armrest is shaped differently on MT models, so yeah, no rear vents.

Mine's 06/02, so it's FAR newer than your 'antique' sedan.

I do have the clutch fan. So I have some sort of freak 03.5 that was built 11/02 that didn't get the update?

I thought they only offered the cloth interior outside of the US?
