The brand was phased out in favor of Nissan in 1984 for the 1985 model year, thus becoming the Nissan Maxima. Most pre-2003 Maximas were built in, Japan, until the current North American Maximas started being assembled in.

In some markets beyond North America, the 'Maxima' name has also been applied to the and (see ). 5-speed. 4-speed Jatco The first car to wear the Maxima name, the second generation, was introduced in 1980 for the 1981 model year. It was essentially a Japanese-market with a 3.9 in (99 mm) longer nose to accommodate the inline-six engine. This model replaced the. The second generation Datsun 810 was not sold in Japan, only in North America as the more basic Datsun 810 Deluxe and the fully equipped 810 Maxima.

Both were available with either sedan or wagon bodywork. In 1981 for the 1982 model year, all 810s were rebranded as Datsun Maxima.

In 1983 for model year 1984, the last year of the first generation Maxima, North American Datsuns began carrying the 'Nissan' badge as well. Only 1984 model year Nissans have both 'Nissan' and 'Datsun' badges on the back of the car, although earlier models had a 'Datsun' badge with a tiny 'by Nissan' section underneath. For the first model year, the 810 Deluxe was the only version to receive the five-speed manual, while the luxurious 810 Maxima only came with a three-speed automatic. The Maxima's introduction to North America followed the successful introduction of the, and used the same engine and transmission while offering luxurious accommodations and four doors. The sedans have independent rear suspension while the wagon has a leaf sprung live rear axle. The wagon also received rear drums rather than disc brakes. The second generation retained the same 2.4-liter base engine as the previous Datsun 810, although up 2 to 120 hp (1 to 89 kW) and with more torque available at a lower engine speed.

It was also available with the 2.8-liter LD28 OHC inline-six diesel engine (available in the US from mid-1981 through 1983) with either a five-speed manual or a four-speed with overdrive. Some of the power steering pumps were sourced from ' Saginaw Gear division, while others were sourced from Atsugi. This was the second Nissan to use US-sourced parts besides the T-5 transmission used in the 82–86 Nissan ZX Turbos. The use of USA-made parts was phased in prior to the passage of imposed by the U.S. One unique feature of the car was its phonograph-based voice warning system. Warnings like those for a door being open, etc.

Would be relayed through the mini phonograph and played for the driver to hear. A common thing to hear would be, 'door is open, key is in ignition.'

1981 models were the first 'talking car' sold in the US and offered only one voice warning, a female voice reminding the driver to 'please turn off the lights'. Second generation (PU11; 1984–1988) Second generation (PU11) Overview Production July 1984 – August 1988 1985–1988 Assembly Japan:, Body and chassis 4-door 4-door sedan (Japan) 5-door Related Powertrain 2.0 L / (Japan) 3.0 L V6 5-speed RS5F50A manual 4-speed RL4F02A automatic Dimensions 2,550 mm (100 in) Length Wagon: 184.8 in (4,694 mm) Sedan: 181.5 in (4,610 mm) Width 66.5 in (1,689 mm) Height Sedan: 54.7 in (1,389 mm) Wagon: 55.7 in (1,415 mm) In the fall of 1984, the first Maxima (based on the ) was introduced for the 1985 model year. This Maxima was available with a 157 hp (117 kW), 3.0-liter and a four-speed or a five-speed. In Japan, a smaller 2.0-liter version of this engine was fitted. These engines were the first V6 engine to be mass-produced in Japan. The second generation was assigned status in the US market. This was the last generation to be available as a, a version which had been offered since the Datsun 810 days.

U11 series Nissan Bluebird Maxima hardtop (Japan) In late 1985 the 1986 Maxima was introduced with a freshened exterior and interior. Automatic shoulder belts were now found on both the 1987 sedan and wagons built after February 1987. Luxury amenities were offered on both the 'base' GL, later renamed GXE and SE trim levels. Such features for the GL/GXE included on the driver and passenger side door panel, power windows, locks, antenna, power seats, remote trunk release, voice warning system, optional leather seating, optional heated front seats, an optional Electronics Pkg (a sedan exclusive, it included a digital instruments and a trip computer) and an optional power sunroof (sunroof was standard on Maxima wagons).

15-inch alloy wheels were standard for the Maxima. An exclusive option for 1988 was the Sonar Suspension System -which was part of the Electronics Pkg- replacing the trip computer that was previously offered. This feature used sonar waves to monitor the road conditions ahead and adjusted the shocks accordingly for the most controlled ride. 1988 was also the year that the previously standard digital touch system offered on the GXE sedan became part of the 'Electronics Package' option as well. The SE (and some GXEs) offered dual power seats, a five-speed manual transmission, three-way shock adjust suspension, front and rear windshield defroster, and a factory-installed security system. The SE also has a small rear spoiler, all-wheel disc brakes, black side rear view mirrors, and (GXE got body-color side rear-view mirrors and matching body molding).

Again, the Maxima's prime competitor was the similarly specified, which remained rear wheel drive. The Maxima provided a combination of luxury and sporty features while the Cressida was generally seen as being softer and more luxurious. The Japanese market 'Bluebird Maxima' received either four-door hardtop sedan or pillared sedan bodywork and a 2.0-liter V6 engine (with an available turbocharger). It received the smaller V6 engine so that it would comply with Japanese Government that tax larger vehicles. The station wagon bodywork was not available in the home market, with the hardtop exclusive to Japanese dealerships. Third generation (J30; 1988–1994) Third generation (J30) Overview Production August 1988 – March 1994 Assembly Japan:, Body and chassis 4-door Powertrain 3.0 L 3.0 L V6 5-speed manual (88–91 RS5F50A) (SE 91–94 RS5F50V) 4-speed automatic (88–94 RE4F02A) (SE 91–94 RE4F04V) Dimensions 104.3 in (2,649 mm) Length 187.6 in (4,765 mm) Width 69.3 in (1,760 mm) Height 1988–91: 55.1 in (1,400 mm) 1991–94: 53 in (1,346 mm) The Maxima was redesigned in 1988 for the 1989 model year as the J30 series (not to be confused with the unrelated ) model.

Bigger dimensions made it the second Japanese sedan sold in North America to qualify as a 'mid-size' (after the ). Nissan marketed this generation Maxima in North America a four-door sports car and even gave it a '4DSC' window decal showing this, and this generation was briefly sold in Japan, replacing the sedan at locations. A refresh occurred in August 1991 for the 1992 model year (from July 1991 production), adding a driver's side SRS airbag and the facelifted version was no longer offered in Japan. 1992–1994 Nissan Maxima (US) It now featured the 160 hp (119 kW), 3.0-liter V6, with the 190 hp (142 kW), unit standard on the SE model starting in 1991. In the United States, the VG30E engine, which featured a variable intake manifold on both automatic and manual transmission models, was used on all 1989 to 1994 GXE models and 1989 to 1991 SE models. This generation Maxima was fitted with an independent rear suspension, and continued to offer the road scanning, electronic (sonar).

An interesting feature was the on the GXE (in conjunction with the new Luxury Package), which allowed the windows to be lowered and the moon roof opened from outside the vehicle on a keypad integrated on the front door handle without the key in the ignition. The engine was exclusively offered on the 1992–1994 Maxima SE.

It was a 3.0-liter, 24 valve, DOHC motor. Its iron block was topped with aluminum cylinder heads and featured a dual length intake manifold (5-speed model only), variable intake valve timing, coil on plug ignition, plus a limited-slip differential. The VE30DE was rated at 190 hp (142 kW) at 5600 rpm and 190 lb⋅ft (258 N⋅m) at 4000 rpm, and had a 6500 rpm redline. The SE models can be further distinguished from the GXE by their white-faced gauges, twisted-spoke turbine wheels (.5 inch wider than GXE wheels and similar in design to wheels offered on the Z31 300ZX), body-colored grille, twin-tip mufflers, factory-tinted tail lights, black trim replacing chrome, firmer sport suspension, and optional 5-speed manual transmission. The automatic transmission on all GXEs (RE4F02A) was an innovative compact unit from Jatco, which featured 'sport' and 'comfort' modes that shifted at different points. The 1992 to 1994 SE received an optional automatic transmission (RE4F04V) that had stronger internals, but kept the 'sport' and 'comfort' modes.

The M featured air conditioning, alloy wheels, central locking, cruise control, power steering, and power windows. The Ti added a rear spoiler, climate control air conditioning, anti-lock brakes, electric seats and a PIN touch-pad locking system.

The M-based LE of late 1991 featured a CD player and sunroof. There was also a leather/sunroof pack optional on Ti.

Nissan Australia released a facelift in January 1993 that included a new grille insert, revised tail lamps, wheels and cabin trim. A driver airbag was now fitted to the Ti, and made optional on the new Executive trim that replaced M. The J30 in Australia was replaced in February 1995 by a new Maxima based on the. The three variants assembled locally in New Zealand had and the Engine only. Versions sold in Japan and Europe had a option as an alternative to the automatic transmission that was standard in North America and Australia/New Zealand.

The Maxima SE was on magazine's for 1990. Another Bluebird Maxima continued on as a and solely as a with the engine during this period until the introduction of the, and the Avenir replaced the Bluebird wagon altogether.

The VQ30DE earned a first spot on the List, and the VQ has now been recognized consecutively for every year since its introduction (as of 2012, 18 years running).

The independent rear suspension of the previous generation was replaced with a lighter and cheaper system, part of a general trend of cost cutting by Japanese manufacturers in the wake of the bursting of of the late 1980s. The Maxima's primary competitor, the, was discontinued after the 1992 model year, with Toyota touting the front-wheel-drive, a stretched version of the introduced in 1994, as its replacement. 1997–1999 Nissan Maxima (US) In October 1996, the Maxima's exterior was refreshed for 1997, with new five-spoke alloy wheels, plastic (clear-lens) headlights vs. The previous glass headlights, a slightly different front and rear fascia with new redesigned tail-lights, the rear-facing part of the trunk was smoothed out to match the tail-lights, re-designed fog-lights and badge designs, and a chrome grille insert for GLE's (body color for SE models) was added. Among interior changes were a different steering wheel and.

Front seat-mounted side impact airbags were added as an option for 1998 and 1999 SE and GLE models. There were also structural modifications to improve crash worthiness for the 1997 to 1999 models.

The 1999 Nissan Maxima also saw some minor changes: an Anti-Theft Engine Immobilizer was standard using a chip in the ignition key, as well as some minor body trims. The 1999 Maxima SE was also available with a Limited Package which consisted of Titanium tinted SE-Limited emblems on the front doors, titanium tinted trunk emblems, and titanium tinted 16' alloy wheels.

The Maxima SE again made magazine's for 1995 and 1996. The 1995's VQ30DE (3.0 litre) engine produced 190 hp (142 kW) and 205 lb⋅ft (278 N⋅m) of torque. With the manual transmission 0–60 mph took 6.6 seconds with a quarter-mile time of 15.2-seconds at 92.4-mph, making it both the quickest and fastest (142 mph top speed) Japanese sedan on the North American market at that time.

A top-of-the-line 1994 Maxima GLE equipped with a four-speed automatic transmission turned in a 8.0-second 0-60-mph run with a 16.0-second/89.4-mph quarter-mile time. At the time, the Maxima was one of few four-door, six-cylinder cars sold in North America with a standard manual transmission. A viscous limited slip differential came standard on Canadian SE models equipped with the 5-speed manual (in the US, the VLSD was restricted to the ). The automatic was a no cost option, which most Maximas were equipped with.

As the Maxima badge was retired in Japan, this particular generation was sold there as the A32. The Cefiro badge had previously been used on a -based, higher specification model with rear-wheel drive (see A31 Cefiro). For the Japanese market, a Cefiro-badged station wagon was also available. One version of the Cefiro (Brougham VIP spec) was sold in the US as the, yet the Cefiro had subtle differences including different fog light arrangements, one-piece headlights and a few assorted engine options (VQ20/25/30DE). The Cefiro was actually introduced first, in August 1994, and was originally available with 2 and 2.5-liter V6 engines with 155 or 190 PS (114 or 140 kW) JIS. This generation was also sold as the Maxima QX in Europe and other parts of the world, and was mostly identical to the Japanese Cefiro except for minor trim differences.

The engine was a 222 hp (166 kW) (227 hp SE) 3.0 L. The vehicle has a 0–60 mph time of 7.0 seconds. This variant of the VQ30DE was referred to as the VQ30DE-K. In this variation, there were three models (GXE, GLE, and SE).

The 'GXE' was the base Maxima. The GLE was the 'luxury' variant and had 16 inch wheels.

This generation was used for the Infiniti I30 (a rebadged ). The 2001 Maxima had a special edition of the SE model which commemorates the 20th anniversary of this particular Nissan. In addition to the usual SE content, this car has the Infiniti I30's engine, special side skirts (ground effects) all around the lower perimeter, and a few special touches to the interior. The last addition includes drilled metal 'brushed metallic' pedals, a brushed metallic shifter, and stainless steel door sill plates that bear the name Nissan Maxima.

The optional leather is perforated, unlike that in the regular SE. Finally, the 'SE Comfort and Convenience Package' which includes a sunroof, 17-inch chrome wheels, and a few other things is standard. This generation of Maxima also saw Nissan introduce a Bridgestone-made engine mount with sensors that communicate with the ECM. Many transmission-like problems such as 'unable to shift into higher gears' resulted from worn engine mounts triggering signals to prevent the vehicle gaining higher speed.

This problem was not often detected by the diagnostics conducted on the transmission and ECM as they were not the cause of the problem. 2002–2003 Nissan Maxima GLE (US) In 2002, the engine was replaced for the whole lineup with a 3.5 L that produced 255 hp (190 kW) and 246 lb⋅ft (334 N⋅m) of torque.

Some interior differences include slightly redesigned seats, a smaller shift knob on automatic models along with a different shift pattern, and a different cup holder lid. 2002-03 SE models equipped with the six-speed manual transmissions were capable of 0-60 acceleration of 6.0 seconds with a quarter mile time of 14.7 seconds @ 97mph. The 02-03 cars also posted substantially better braking numbers, requiring 182 feet to stop from 70 mph, compared with the 195 feet of the 2000 model.

For 2003, there was a special package called the Titanium Edition with special wheels and interior treatment, as well as a Meridian Edition package which included heated seats and steering wheel (usually leather, although some were available with heated cloth), and a GPS navigation system. The Titanium Edition was available in all colors, but a new color was available only with the Titanium Edition (Polished Titanium). In Russia and Europe, the Maxima is being sold as Nissan Maxima QX.
