1996 Maxima Auto 57000 kilometres (I inherited part of the car, payed for the rest)

When we first got this car I was impressed with the pick up but frustrated with spinning the tires off the start and the very poor handeling. Haveing no money our first mod was a K&N filter followed by water wetter. After saving some money the next mod was new tires and wheels (Used wheels. Wanting to have some fun we put on 225/45 ZR 17 BF Goodrich comp TA KD dry weather rated tires (restricted by the wheel width and a great savings on the tires). With these tires I now new why you needed a FSTB. Boy did this car flex in tight corners. 1 year later we added a FSTB and life was good however the back got a little light in sharp fast corners. 1 year later and we just put on a RSB that we ordered from Greg a while back. Now the car does not roll very much in the corners but boy do we ever want to have more side support in the seats. I now know why 5 strap harnesses are used in some cars.

I will have to wait for a while to do another mod since we will probably need new tires next summer. They wear fast but then are a blast. We do not drive this car much but we sure have fun when we do.
