New car pics.

Just got the baby repainted about 5 months ago, and havent gotten around to show it off to you guys.

Yes i know i dont have clears on the front so shutupatey about it, if you wana know why i dont have em:

http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=282925

I also havent gotten the 97 headlights just yet, so shutupatey bout that ish as well...

Anyways, here is a short summary of my mods to date.

97 Front conversion
Ground Controls/AGX combo (Just droped the back about a quarter inch to even it out a couple days ago, will get pics later)
Ekei CP1 18x8 wrapped in dunlop sp fm901 (great tires!)
Custom Ground kit (pics soon)
Hybrid Intake with K&N filter
Stillen FSTB

Stillen Kit (sitting in garage waiting to be painted)
And i just ordered all the parts for the Z32 bbk conversion with 13" cobra rotors.

My next big mod is going to be a 5spd swap, im holding back on any mods to the motor/exaust untill i get this done concidering i want to get the most expensive things outa the way first, that and i think i would have more fun with a 5spd than with a modded autocrapic maxima...

Tell me what you guys think:

Wut are joo talking about? i tried to buy em but they were warped and crappy as all hell.

I thought i would spend good money and get something quality, lil did i know ebay's japanese sellers make 100 times better products and service than CM did...sigh....

at least for the bumper lights, i dunno bout the rest of their products...but i will refrain from buying anything from them for a VERY long tim, they honestly gave me hell for my first damn mod on the car..

man, i shouldnt have posted pics, now everyone is gona wana buy my rims...im the only max ive seen with em...keep it that way!!! haha

thanks for the compliments tho, as for the GCs ive had em on there for about 5-7 months, and other than the noises i love em. it is stiff, but man they handle like nothing i would have imagined..

I am planning on buying some progress springs to see how i like them since i never really slammed it with the GCs its kinda pointless to keep em, i thought i would have wanted to go lower...but now that i got the body kit....i wana make sure i got enough clearance as i have never driven a car with a body kit, so if its too low, im gona scrape the hell outa it...progress seams to be a perfect drop, right between all the major drops like H&R sprints and eibachs...

so if anyone is selling em, let me know!

Maybe i said it wrong, by the "trim" i ment the handles/emblems/keyholes/antenna, when my mother bought the car in 95...she payed extra to get the handles gold, emblems gold, keyholes, and antena all in gold plating. It looked really nice on the beige till i got those wheels on...then it just looked wack..

i shoulda kept the gold trim and got some 19 inch tripple gold plated Daytons

Oh boy, now I am even more confused. I honestly have no idea what you guys are talking about.

The only thing I can think of is the window trim itself. ? GXEs and GLEs have chrome and SEs have black. But that doesn't make sense since Xerox has a GXE and would have had chrome anyway.

correct, but if you bought it off the lot and had it shipped in like a special order (like my mom did) u can choose certain things like having a 3rd party gold plate the chrome parts. Nissan never did that from the factory, it was something the dealership offered at an extra cost.

You can tell its a special order also because unlike a majority of GXE maximas, minez has a sunroof and bose...if it was a 5spd and black on black...that would be one rockin rare max hehe

I got you. When you said 'gold' I thought you meant body color and I knew the window trim never came body color. But you meant the 'gold package' where they make the chrome items gold. All clear now.

Do you mean the Progress Technology coil overs? Ironically I just helped my friend install them last night. Having the ability to make your wheel gap what you want and, more imortantly, make all 4 equal, is very nice but it is one brutal ride.

nice car. Now all you have to do is drop it, clear or tint your tails, get different rims (bling bling = no no), and some kind of exhaust tip/muffler.

Actually i was refering to the lowering springs...that drop seam really appealing as a replacement for my ground controls as i never really slammed it like i thought i would. not many orgerz have this drop tho, only one that comes to mind is i think geo...i know there are others, but very fiew..
