From previous thread :Ill mail all of you that posted soon if not tonight. ive done some research and took a look at a 97 max that had a new motor put in , and i might be able to score us a donor block with a broken crankshaft and/or donor heads and everything else that comes intacked with the block. but that is sketchy at the moment. we need to get organized. thanx to emax i have a list of parts that are in the stillen kit , some we will need parts similar to others will be completely different while staying with the supercharged theme. if anyones got ideas let me know im going to repost this under the new thread and hopefully we will get a larger audience.

The list so far , in no particular order, is

maxinxs
theblue
medicsonic
craig mack
dmbmaxima88
emax95
cumalot
tifosiv122
vmok
carnal_c30
smx
chebesto
jdwy2821

thats a good start, my connection is really slow so im gonna wait till tomorrow to get all your emails to mail you guys. For the time being, anything that pops in yer head, post, i read through everything i could find on chestons site www.maximadriver.com and he also put good deal of things in perspective when he posted. As for profit and such , thats not what im looking for , i want every maxima boostin , i want mustangs flying towards performance shop cause they got raped by a 4 door. If the charger idea falls through id at least like to start some sort of club. i go to the pike often and we definately need a larger following, tomorrow night is pike night , if anyone wants to meet there around like 10 then name a place or ask me to and i will post something and be there , if all goes well im going to remove everything from my ypipe back and replace with a straight pipe and im going to install my mesh grille tomorrow afternoon , so if yer there and u hear a rumblin green max its prolly me. maybe ill make my CAI too, anyways id like to get a meeting set up somewhere thats good for everyone so that we can get some real work underway. we'll also be able to set some realistic goals about all this.
post away with all your ideas

no one will be asked to contribute anything but their time and some effort till its decided whether or not to start buying things, we need to decide if we are going to buy a stillen kit and rip it apart for what it is , or untill we hook up with someone whos got a kit or someone very familiar with it. So no money till parts are going to be purchased

Hey pete, I have 4 nice pictures of when I removed my SC. I have 2 pics of the blower partially on the car, I have 1 pic of the main air tube, I also have a pic of the fuel pump connected.

I did a little brainstorming and there is really only 4 things that have to be custom made, 3 of them whould not be terribly diffucult but the 4th {"gasp"} is the damn mounting plate. I will up load the pics off my digi cam onto my computer and then onto the internet. I will post them in about 1 hour. BTW I am happy to see you did not whoos{S?} out yet, I figured you allready forgot about this .

spiffy

sounds good to me man , one of the techs i work with used to be a machineist , maybe i can talk him into helping me find a place to make the stuff , as for the mounting plate , if stillen can do it , so can we. i dont care if they had nasa make it , we can do it too , and as long as people keep up with ideas and people keep me motivated i wont give up. i know i cant do this alone so if people stop tryin to help then theres no point, however this seems to be working well, i gotta get to bed though i will be getting up early to look at the pics, thanks alot man. i cant emphasize enoguh that absolutely anyone can help , even if u just are good finding nuts and bolts in the hardware store , everyone will get what they put in and if it all works out everyone will get their charger. can anyone name more supercharger makers besides vortech ? a friend suggested paxton , i havent had the time to do much research on them cause i work and play with the car then come on here and by the time i get my brain working its time for bed and work again , such a vicious cycle lol , anyways, everyone have a good night , and thanks again emax

Thanks for the offer dude but my I30 was not a lemon. I just got a little carried a way with it and stuff starting braking all the time and things got way out of hand. I have since completly restored it to it's oem condition adn I am selling it for full price .

I still have my 95 max and I am going to keep it for a while longer. It's a very nice car and it has always taken very good care of me.

Good night..

thats not what i meant dude , i was saying we could get u another from auction , one of the main concerns of people who hear about getting cars from auction is the possibility that they might be a lemon, and about getting carried away and breaking stuff... yeah i do that too , but im trying to tone it down a bit. too bad flying sideways through corners is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much fun
gtg to work , have a good day all

You should give yourself a pat on the back for your efforts. I like how you are handling things and attempting to keep everyone interested. Meeting up sometime probably won't happen since I live in KS and you live in Conneticut. That will probably be one of the biggest concerns, since we all live in different areas. But, we will always be together with the Org around. I have been thinking about this supercharger idea and about the headers Emax has every night . I just gotta have more power....it's so addicting. It seems that we have quite a good supply of info already from everyone. We need to get the parts that need fabricating and take them somewhere to be done. Keeping in mind that it would be best to have one place do everything. Atleast it would probably be cheaper...Damn, I have to get back to work, I'll post again.

aint nuttin

it really isnt , my only real problem is my connection, keep getting kicked off, thanks for the compliment though, ur definately going to be one of the first ones to get the kit if it reaches some production level. it was your idea after all. Delio has offered to let someone analyze his kit, the only day im free to go during the day is monday, and id need help, i can do it any day after 5 from wednesday on but if its far that means we wouldnt get down to work till like 8 so i dont know if that will fly. monday i can do it though so if anyone is interested please let me know asap. As for a website , that would be awesome , that way people on the forum could keep up to date with whats going on and maybe with some publicity we could get some sponsors. but first we need measurements ... has anyone gotten any specs yet? , any info on other superchargers?
im gonna need reinforcements to keep up with members and keep everyone organized till i get back to my dorm and get my fast connection. anyone want the job ? if so mail me or PM me. I have a digital camera at my disposal so if we could at least go down to visit delio for a little while we could write up specs on everything. ill also need someone who can research to find machine shops willing to do this , someone with some real persuasive talent because this is custom people will wanna charge bucks, my idea is to call a buncha places and get estimates from each place, then call the most expensive place and say these guys (use name their name) quoted me at this , can u do any better? , then depending on their answer call another place and say , well these guys quoted me this and maybe they will be flexible ,etc. and eventually maybe things will be at a reasonable price. today while passing taco bell near my work i saw JDwyer2821's car. it looks good dude, no riceiness at all. When i get in tonight hopefully ill be able to mail everyone that posted. if anyone is going to the pike post here or mail me , i should be there. WE NEED BOOST , and we need a club if anyones got a name in mind or knows how to organize one that would be most beneficial. i gotta get going but i will be back on this evening , ive got work AGAIN tomorrow till 6 then im headin over to the pike most likely if anyones interested in going PM Lime and tell her pete said something about a maxima meet either this weekend or next.
everyone have a safe friday night

pike

i counted 8 maximas there tonight , i didnt get to race anyone , we need to band together , tonight i legitimately whooped a mustang with the 4.6 , i know its nothin special , but i think our cars are severly underestimated.
i want the whirr from the charge to come from my hood and have someone look over and be like huh , looks stock , wtf , then turn around and realize no one is their but this four door , then i want to see them frightened for their self esteem as the light turns green and i whoop em better then they've ever been whooped before , and itll happen , for all of us !!!!!! if we can do this , motivation guys motivation. "my car topped out at 140, i need NOS" no u dont need NOS u need to stop drivin a 4 banger , 139 tonight, didnt hit fuel cutoff though so maybe it was a little less. so yeah time to go fast and go to bed. night peeps
