What would you do....

For all of you Maxima lovers out there, think back to when you first got your ride... Now sitting where you are now with the car, if you could go back and start all over knowing what we all know now, what would be your perfect setup, differences from what you did to it before you may have really researched something?

I wouldve waited till I had more money and got some Illuminas with my Eibachs instead of the Tok Blues I got. But I've been on the org ever since I got my car, I always knew what I should have got and what my options are as far as mods go.

Illuminas with Tein H.Techs. No stickers or GTR badges. Start off with an SE.

Turbo'ed sleeper. Straight to RX-7 rims instead of 3 different sets of 17's. H&R's w/Illuminas instead of Eibachs to Sprints to H&R's (all with Tok Blues). I could go on and on but I'd just get depressed.

I'd start with getting a manual tranny and an SE trim.

Black interior... Oh god how I wish I had a black interior... I had no choice though, the car was given to me, so I can't complain.

Also, I'd get Illuminas with Tein S springs instead of my KYBs with Intrax's... And I would have just skipped buying my McCulloch HIDs and waited for projectors.
