I have a 2000 model and has you accelerate the engine hesitates at around 4500 rpm and then continues smoothly to redline. I just had the clutch hydraulics repaired as the slave cylinder craped out. A friendly mechanic suggested (before the clutch repair) the clutch could of been slipping. Now with the clutch repaired, I am looking for your feedback on what it could be.
Thanks for your help.

The 2000 (and later) Maximas have a 2 stage variable intake manifold. I've seen stories on maxima.org of them failing to switchover. Perhaps yours is acting up. Have the dealer check it.
Interestingly, the 2000-2001 intake manifolds were plastic, yet the
95-99s were metal. Then, in 2002, Nissan went back to metal intake manifolds. Hmmmmmmmmm.......CD
