Hood Scoop Pics (part2)
#41
The scoop looks good, but there will be no HP gains with this hoodscoop. It might help on hot days, but on cold days it won't do anything.
As for your serious hail damage, any dent removal shop can take care of that. That kind of damage is minimal.

And for you to diss on somebody and there mods (even when alot of people on the board like this particular mod) just tells me your jealous. Get over yourself.... your car is not that cool..

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, everyone look at the baby who can't afford to modify his car or doesnt have the know-how to get sponsors... let me cry you a f*cking river you p*ssy.
i hardly ever post against people.. but things like this bother me.. i'd like to think maxima drivers have more sense then to drive around looking like a civic with mismatched colors everywhere and random body work, but this annoys me.. and you assume i would hate if he just had rims, not at all.. i think rims/drop is the best place to start with modifying a car, not a hoodscoop, nor paint.
i honestly want to see what he comes up with as far as paint and body work, but for now i am skeptical because there are only a handful of people on the board that actually modify their cars and get sh*t done.
by the way.. a lot of the people in the thread are being sarcastic about liking the scoop.
and you can talk to anyone who knows me on this forum, i dont think my car is the ****, and half the time i talk about selling it. so why dont you talk to some people who know me before saying i think i am all badass and think my car is the sh*t because i sure as hell don't.

Mass Production is Possible. Give me an idea of what you think something like this is worth! Anything is possible>>
p.s. driving with-out the scoop on ,but cuts in the hood= easy 20hp.
i would break the tires loose like this.. It still has significant increase in power with the scoop on though.i bet 10-15.

-JL Audio rep came up to me at Hot Import Nights and wants to add me to the team waverunner.
-Import Tuner called my car club and talked about shooting my car at Import Xpression.
-I was shot for a euro mag after Hot Import Nights.
-I've spent out of pocket around $17,000 on the car, not including labor, maintenance, etc.
-AP-Signworks/Evolution-Autodesign picked me up awhile back, and that's where it all began.

IMO, I think you're kind of an idiot to spend all your money on your car. What do you have to show for your life? A fancy "show" car? Ohhhh, that's impressive. I betcha still live at home too. You probably have credit card debt out the a$$.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

#58

jason was a harsh, but maxipad96 and others only provked him futher..

If, IFFFF, it would increase it would have to be like "twistedmax's" setup which would actually move air towards the intake. My carbon fiber hood lets more air in than your hood scoop does and there is no 15-20 HP.. good luck with a hard rain or when you wash your car.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is typical.. hoodscoop with stock wheels, drop, body, brakes, etc.. "
1. I said that it was typical on this board to see people do something so custom before doing all of the principle modifications (not to me, just in general.. if wheels/drop is not a principle modification then maybe i am wrong and we should all roll around on 15" sawblades or SE wheels and look the same).
2. I didn't bash the kid on his car, i bashed him on his comment about thinking it made 20HP, I just said it was something you see often here people modifying their cars in very peculiar ways (if that's what he wants, it's his car, i simplying voiced my opinion)
3. MaxiPad96 attacked me about my comment, so I responded accordingly..
4. You don't know a f*cking thing about me. I have NO credit card debt, I have plenty of money in the bank, I have a show car that wins shows, I have a bad*ss apartment that's probably the size of your house, I have about 15K in the stock market and mutual funds (not from "mommy and daddy"), and I am 20 years old attending college (paying for it myself). You attacked me, so where were you when you were 20?

Mods take money and he is building his the right way in my opinion having a good base to start with. And whoever made the comment of me not modding my car myself? or knowing how?.. come on, i've done everything to my car myself except body work.. so give me a break please..

if i had a bone stock maxima (and i dont consider my car worth anything more than anyone else's car on this forum, ask people, i guarrantee they will back that sh*t) i would say the same thing, because thats my mentality as far as modifying a car goes.
and as far as you doing your own modifications whooopdie doo.. did you screw in your own clear corners? did you take off your stock airbox yourself?
why don't you list the modifications that you have done and we can compare, you are the one that brought that point up, so I think it would be justified with an answer.
clee - is it 2 midol in the morning or 3?? I just took 3 in case.
matt - been busy with school, i am glad the thing with santa claus pulled through.. congrats
jeffrey - thank you.. and maybe I was a bit harsh..

YO *******
umm actually i could Layer and Layer paint color on the HOOD. I COULD Paint it now, then sand off all the clear when im ready to paint again and spray the paint. TWO TIPS #1 im not going to paint the car the same color, so ill have to re-layer different Paint. #2 Id be wasting my paint if im repainting in like 4 months. #3 I actually do paint and i know if you layer loads of paint on you will not have crisp body lines anymore<thats how they sometimes fill small rock chips> SO *******. ill get my poopersscooper cause ya *** is talkin sh$$.

Hey, it's your car...do what you want. Personally you've got a Maxima, so you can't be that bad.
Not everyone has Mommy/Daddy or tons of $$ so do what you can when you can...good luck!

Yeah, my mom bought all of my parts, how'd you find out?
No visa bills here.. im sorry that you couldn't get approved for more than a $500.00 limit on your visa card though, why dont you do a couple more shifts at mcdonald's and you'll be at $750.00 limit in no time at all.
I am glad your car is worth almost the rear half of my car, that's good that you set your car on such a high platform. If you are so good with paint it would be no issue to paint your unmatched fenders, hood, and etc.. and maybe even clean up the overspray on your spare tire well?? then you could repaint again right?? or does maaco need more than 4 months to do resprays?
By the way, the money I spent on the car is paying off, because where I wanted this car to go is where it is going.
And you can go ahead and keep picking up you and your boyfriend's droppings with your "poopersscooper", thank you for the offer though, i use a toilet.

Where was I when I was 20? In college, driving a 90 CRX Si, paying for a 700 sq ft' apartment with a roommate, working part time to pay bills, no savings. Where am I now? I'm 28, married, average paying salary job, own two cars out right, own a house, no debt, plenty of money elsewhere.
