What's YOUR Favorite Setup?
 
i have noticed many different types of setups, whether it be dropped 2 inches, kit or no kit... i just want to see what everyone likes the most. this will help me decide on wether or not to drop really low and go without a kit... like ludacris, or get a mild drop with a kit... like erty67.

these are just two of my favorites, i hope they don't mind me using them. :bowdown:

This would be my dream:

Mild Drop(S-Tech's, H&R's or something similar)
Nice adjustable struts(AGX, Illuminas, or Konis)
M-Bumper
Sarona Rear
Some Sideskirts(Don't know much about them but it would be nice because then you can have SFC's without looking funky.)

Ludacris Jun 10, 2004 09:28 PM

lol do what you like man...I'm saving for the stillen kit this summer, so hopefully soon I will be "low" and kitted :o

Shift_my vq Jun 10, 2004 10:00 PM

My dream is to have a 97+ front end with stillen lip and sides, sarona v1 rear bumper and carbon fiber hood with ton's of pearl in the white paint. So baisicly cearser's set up

Personally, I think a really low drop with a very subtle body kit looks best however, I wouldn't do it to my car; I'd do a mild drop with the subtle kit. The lower the Max is, the meaner it looks but it's got an image of luxury/class that I'd like to maintain.

I would go with Ionic sides and rear w/ the luda lip. I already have the s-techs/gr-2 setup but need a kit that won't scrap all over the place.

does anyone know what is going on with the NEW M-type bumper?

Midknight MAXX Jun 11, 2004 12:01 AM

The decision should be based on the driving conditions you face day to day also. Personally I like the low drop without the kit.

Blackwind Jun 11, 2004 04:13 AM

i have no drop butg that will change soon.

and i will, but i like to see the org'rs dicuss this topic... yes, it is stricly opinions, but you can learn a lot from em...

Broaner Jun 11, 2004 08:52 AM

IMO if you go slammed your gonna turn the car into an uncomfortable go-kart. Progress is flirting on that line. Anything lower than that is too harsh.
Midknight MAXX is right about driving conditions. A kit is out of the question for me even though I drive less than 50 miles a week in the winter.

im not sure which to exactly vote for but my dream setup is 19" rims, stillen kit and 1 finger-0 finger wheel gap.

Nice drop with a Stillen Kit and 19's....Perfect!!
(I am almost there!) lol

Going with a 1.5-2.0 drop with a stillen kit and some 19s look classic.

Wills98MaxSE Jun 11, 2004 07:11 PM

no drop yet or kit yet, but w/ these harsh MI roads that's a big ? mark for me, if I do decide on a drop, I don't want anything too low or something that makes the ride too harsh- any suggestions?

prob. no kit, I wanna keep a nice, clean look for my Max

RA030726 Jun 12, 2004 05:53 AM

Stillen kit with Eibach springs.

Broaner Jun 12, 2004 09:57 AM

Raced on the track my @ss. Maybe the occasional 1/4 mile but track day events? Yeah right. I still hold to my statement. Putting a BBK on the rear is 110% not necessary on a Maxima. I do not disagree that it looks insanely nice. In fact. Its one of the best looking pebble beige's around. I also really like the very slight tint. And are those CF door pillars.

Wow! D@mn posers. Haha. J/K of course... but why would someone desire to photoshop a super'ed Max. You sure its not 11Ibs of sh!t in the trunk?

19s with bags and bodykit

Broaner Jun 14, 2004 08:46 PM

Explain why I'm a moron. Someone posted a pic of a max and I was realized that something was up before knowing who's car it was or being told it had been photoshopped. Do you not agree that it would be pointless and utterly stupid to put a BBK on the rears despite any amount of power the vehicle had? Here is the quote directly from the site, "my friend photo shoped it for me fake bling bling" Now that I've been informed I will give full respect to this vehicle and its owner. Why would you expect me to respect something that I've never seen before? I guess I need to learn to lay the sarcasm on like jelly instead of butter for the illiterates of the group.
