Welcome my friend. Like the sig. What are you trying to do to your car now power wise. If you have an extra $160 you can get a hi performance y-pie in the group deals section. It's labeled New Warpseed y-pipe deal. Good luck on your newly found love.

P.S. Make up a web page at cardomain.com.

That is a good sig for a newbie

welcome to .org. Turdlett is right about the y-pipe -- probably the best bang for the buck mod that I have done.

thanks for the welcome guys

i will indeed make a cardomain site, but my car is all stock...so there won't be much to show off!! needs a little touch up in certain areas, but otherwise it's been greatly kept! bought the car last year for a little under 3grand, doesnt even have 80k miles on it yet! i love it, and i especially love teasing my friends who have camrys and accords...those poor bastards can't keep up with the max!

anyway, i really would like to get a CAI or a popcharger, depending on the type of work i can do. i'm DIY retarded, so i don't want to take an install that is too much for me. also, i've heard about modified short-ram air intakes, but can't find anything on this board. anybody got info on that?

wouldn't mind doing the warpspeed deal a little later on, ofcourse i'd love to do other things like a bmw headlight conversion first.

anyway guys, that's my story. i'm glad to be here, and thanks for the compliments on the sig...just something i threw together on impulse last night in photoshop...still need to change the colors.

(while driving to work today next to an old corvette, i noticed the striking resemblence between the stock maxima SE rims and the corvette's! they were almost exactly the same! anybody notice that before...heh, makes me appreciate mine a little more now)

You could buy my WSP Y-pipe from me. That is, as long as Shibby isn't interested in it. $150+shipping. As I said, its pretty much brand new.

I feel you on that one. I was in the WSP deal but had to back out due to the fact that my tranny crapped out.
