Here is what I used. My arms with 100% cotten clothes, I have the machine but I to scrub it with my arms. The waxes were MEGUIAR'S Cleaner Wax, Use that 1st and then I used MEGUIAR'S hi-tech yellow wax which is simply high gloss paint protection to finish it off. About an hour and 30 min later the car was shinny!

Well as of now its mainly just doing maintance and repairs. Biggest mod would be supercharging, But i doubt that will happen. I wanted to get pillar gauges, But again I like the look of my car dont want to go over board.

SMX95,

Did you purchase that car with the kit already installed? I found a bunch of my old car & driver magazines in the garage & there was an article about the SMX Stillen Max. It basically said that certain dealerships were going to receive a limited number of the SMX's to sell on the lots. The article didn't mention anything about a S/C coming with the vehicle. Just upgraded exterior & suspension. Is your SMX one of these special Stillen built dealer sold vehicles? Or is yours a self built replica of the SMX?

yes, me and my brother worked on the car for about 3-4 year's till the day he gave it to me. He owns a beautiful new 2004 Acura TL. Oh and about the SMX thing I believe my car can pass for one, but the diff is the engine work and the rims. I know the smx's didnt come with a polished valve cover with a dress up kit, nor the same rims and I doubt the same custom leather interior I have. But the body can def pass for one.

SMX,

Sorry if you took my original post the wrong way. Mad respect to you & your brother for putting in your wrench time. I was simply asking about your ride, because of the article. I'm not even sure if dealerships actually sold the SMX. I just wanted to confirm if the article was true. Maybe someone who knows more about the history of SMX's can inform me if infact they were sold at the Nissan dealerships. Thanks!!!

Nah dont worry about it. As for the SMX being sold in dealerships I doubt it, because someone would have had one. The real SMX I think is a 96 pearl white. Its usually all over the stillen magazines. Thanks for your replies though.
