Money well spent = feels new again!

I just dished out the cash for some waaaay overdue maintenance. My brother hooked me up with new axles because my car was suffering from 'weird clicky axle noise syndrom' aka WCANS. My car has been diagnosed with WCANS for the past 4months and now it is cured!!

My brother also ordered and installed new brake pads all around and cut the rotors. No more squeeky squeeky when coming to a red light

I also got a full front end wheel allignment, which drastically changed the way the steering feels at highway speeds. And to compliment the newly alligned wheels, is a pair of new 15" tires for my sawblades.


Finally got an oil change!!! after 6k? miles of beating on the maxipad. I don't know what I was thinking. Car feels alot smoother with fresh oil/filter.

All of this stuff, paired with my new KYB GR-2 that were installed a couple weeks ago, makes me feel proud to drive my maxima again. It handles like a champ and takes a good beating while still being almost 10years old.

I'm praying to God that you are not serious! bwahahaa funny

My brother does anything but I doubt he has time to work on Maximas. He mainly works on dsm's and supras.
