has anyone ever bagged a 3rd gen maxima?? would it be possible? I heard that with bags the car seems to float & doesn't really stick to the ground.

i'm going to get bags, i was going for hydrolics

but to dangerous. you can really slam a car on airbags if you do it right. and if you get a bodykit and coilovers it would just be lower.

yea hydros are the sh!+...but I like the more smooth ride of airbags. like i stated earlier, i heard that they really don't seem like the tires stick..i'm wondering if its really worth it...it might be for me cuz i'm not into racing just cruzin!!

hey perlmax90 sorry if now one told you yet but they do not make coil overs for our year maximas. you can get eibachs with the boddy kit. but you might have a hard time fitting the jack under your car. i can barlly fit the jack under my car and i only have ST lowering springs and a body kit. can only dream how i would fit the boddy kit under the car if i had eibach's w/ the body kit. good luck with the air bags. keep me updated with them.

Uhhh, the ST springs are lower than Eibachs..

But yeah.. I've got eibachs and no body kit, and it's still a PIA to get a jack under it.. I went to the tire shop yesterday to get a new tire mounted, and I got the sway bar stuck on the center of the lift.. THEN the jack they slid under the car couldn't compress low enough to get it under anything to jack up the car.. they ended up having yo get 3 employees to lift up the front end of the car while I backed off the lift onto a stack of bricks.. THEN they stuck a jack under my car and changed my tire for me.. heheh

matt how come you car looks so much lower with your 16 (you have 16 right? and what size tire do you have?) i thought the eibachs go to 1.75? and ST go to 1.5? well i guess i was wrong. oh well. just can not figure out how to get the jack under my car with the side skirts on. what issues i have. ha ha. matt do you know what the best tape to use in order to stick on the boody kit?
