Finally got pics of all of my mods

Finally got pics of my ride. I lowered the car with ST springs and KYB GR2's. I put some Sacchi S1 17" rims on with some Wanli tires. I got PowerSlot slotted rotors with EBC Greenstuff pads (which by the way are awesome). I painted my caliper and drums, but those are hard to see in the pics. I'll get some better pics later. I also got a new muffler and a FSTB which I'll also get pics of later. For now, enjoy and tell me what ya think.

Hey, give me your initial impressions of those Wanli tires. Did you get the SP-1099 that look like Yokohama AVS Sports?

They have them cheap at Les Schwab and I was considering them, since Schwab has a good warranty good customer service (at least the one's I've dealt with do).

thanks anaximander i think i will changin' springs soon anways.

if u guys want to clear out ur rear signals just try crackin' the clear reflectors out of the tails without damaging the clear outer lens. i used a screwdriver and just starting crackin' and breakin' the clear reflectors out and also used a needle nose plier to take out the big pieces of the reflectors. it took about an 1 1/2 hrs. to this but don't rush it if ur thinkin' about doin' this and then to finish it off i spray painted the chrome trim and MAXIMA letters in the center piece all in a flat black paint to get the SE look. again just go to the last page in my cardomain site.

Sprint and Intrax are lower than ST

ST is 'only' a 1.5" drop

Dmad- I need all of the fogs because my headlights are so dull and I need more lighting for my headlights. I know they look kinda corny, but trust me, I need them! lol Any wiring help to make them a little brighter would be great! I've heard that you can put a relay or whatever in, but I don't know how to do that?

Red92MaxSE- The tires are actually really nice. They're excellent in the rain and the wear is great. I haven't had any problems yet with them. I took a trip from Indy to Northern Michigan with them doing about 80-100 mph the whole way and they were GREAT!! Overall, they have about 1,500-2,000 miles on them and they've been great. They were really really cheap and I'm actually pretty impressed with them. The only bad thing is that on the highway, they are a tad noisy, but that doesn't bother me?

Like said, I cleared my tails by just poking out the clear reflectors. If this is done, be VERY VERY careful that you don't push too hard. I didn't do it, but you can do some pretty bad damage. I actually cleared out both layers in the tail. So, when you look at the tail, you can see the bulb right there! lol It makes the turn signal a little bit brighter and I think it looks pretty badass. And no GRNMAXDMON, I didn't copy you! lol I think we just happened to have the same good idea. Thanks for all of the good comments.

Nope, got rid of that ugly fat thing and threw in a new OBX Racing DTM muffler. It looks really really nice and it hangs almost perfectly. The only somewhat problem with it is that it became just a tad bit louder, but thats fine with me, as long as it doesn't sound like a 4cyl. I'll get pics up soon, I've been real busy with school and haven't had time.
