Thats nice, it just so happens that the Frankencar midpipe for a 95-99 fits a VE and so does the Courtesy FSTB for the 02-03 maximas.

damn D looks good! I love those HID's

The hoses all fit the midpipe nipples well? Fell any difference? Also how do you like the eibach/tokico combo?

I drove his car last night and I felt a difference , I dont think it was from the intake though. the clutch and fly wheel is great, the setup took a few minutes to get used to but its definately nice, I cant wait to get my fly wheel now. then I can be as fast again.

Kevin, the hoses fit perfectly into the Frankencar, the only thing the front hose I had to cut a little to make it fit, other than that it was perfect. I don't know if the frankencar made a difference since I installed together with the cluth and flywheel but damn I have a hard time keeping traction in first and second gear when I step on it. I like the eibach/tokico set-up it's great, I like it because it gives a nice feeling to the car overall and I still was able to keep a smooth ride. What made a big difference in my car was the ST sway bars, I felt a huge difference with them.

The kit cost $400.00 shipped to your door. The work was not much, this kit is plug and play. The bulb already comes with a 9004 backing so all you have to do is take out the bulb from the box and slip it in to the headlight socket, thats it. The rest is wiring which is plug and play because they are color coded and finding two screws like I did or drilling two holes to mount the relay and ground wire. Each side took me about 20 minutes. Yes it's very blinding to other drivers.

Damn D! Your ride is sweet! My VG was coming along that way. My VE is crappy right now. I am going to take some pics of it now in its winter prime. Your car has inspired me to go house on my car in the spring. You'll probably see it this summer. I am most likely going to go with a frankencar midpipe too. I have a PR CAI upper section in there, but it doesnt fit well. So I will change it out pretty soon.

Your VG was beautiful, I'm sure you can do the same with the VE Thanks for the comments.

The Greddy oil cap can be used on Nissan, Honda and Subaru's I think. I think there are two universal sizes for the radiator and oil filler cap which fit most imports. There are more details in the accessory section of www.greddy.com

You need to do the corner lamp rewire and get some brighter bulbs man....those HIDs are making the corner light look downright dirty....otherwise very tight ride

Exactly what N34JZ said, re-wiring and putting a brighter bulb will not help. When I get new clear corners soon hopefully, I will disconnect that bulb and just leave the wedge bulbs with a nice purple wedge.
