I'm back after 5 years!
 

Hello everyone.

I come up as a newbie but I've actually been around since 1998, since the "Andy" and "Russel" days. If you know those 2 names, you are on old timer!

Anyway, my first Maxima was a new 98 SE Auto, and then after two years got a new 00 GXE 5-speed. After finishing college, I gradually lost interest in modding, and just rode my Maxima as a commuter car. That's about the time I lost the log-in and the password to the org too. That was 5 years ago and I stopped coming to the org since then. I sold my GXE in 05 and rode a beater Accord for a few years. Well, I wanted a V6 sports sedan again and started looking. After almlost buying a brand new Legacy 3.0 R, I decided to save lots of money and decided to get another 4th gen in good shape. The first 98SE I had was an auto, but it was gonna be a 5-speed this time. After observing the used car market for 3 months, my dream car finally surfaced on Craigslist.

Silver 1998 SE 5-speed, FULLY LOADED with every single available option for that year, and with only 70,000 miles. It practically was brand new. It was almost in mint condition. I couldn't believe it was 10 years old.

Anyway, I snatched the car up from the previous owner in a heartbeat.

I'm not gonna go crazy modding this time. All I'm gonna do is lower it. With the first 2 Maximas I put in Nitro, Y-pipe, intake, tint, $1500 aftermarket stereo systerm, Cattback and all. But this time, all I wanna do is nice clean handling mods. Just FSTB, RSB, Springs and Shocks. No more. Maybe I got old since the college days...:laugh:

But anyways, I'm glad to be back!

modding will NEVER stop. you say your just going to do FSTB, RSB, Springs and shocks/struts. Just wait. You will find something else to add to it.

Nice find though on the '98.

Cool, welcome back. What was your old org name? Oh, and POST PICS!

My old name was ArcticMax or something like that. Pics will be up soon!

welcome back.


and isn't there some rule against Political mush in signatures, etc..?? I don't want to read Barack Obama stuff on the org

RMT it.

cool post pics of the new ride

New unofficial slogan of the .org? :lol:

Welcome back, ArcticMax! I vaguely remember seeing that name on the .org back in the day (I have been around longer than my join date suggests).

You got a serious problem. You need to seriously check yourself into the OG Forum before you go any further. Curious, were you around when I hosted the .org for couple months before it became .org? And were you a cast member of "As The Maxima World Turns"?

Btw, how much did your shiny new ride cost?

Welcome home,

How come I don't have access to that forum? :o I've been around since 2002! Just kidding, I don't really consider myself that OG, I've just been around quite a while. I honestly miss the days of the white-and-green Maxima.org :(

welcome welcome warmest welcome........Lets see the ride.

Welcome Back! a Accord? No wonder you came back to the good side.

Welcome back bro! I just came back from a year ago as well!

For some reason I don't have access to that forum...hmm... I wasn't a member of the "As the maxima world turns", but I think I remember when you hosted the org for a few months. I paid $5700 for my ride. I think I got a good deal considering how low the miles were. It it was black it would've been perfect though... Not a very big fan of sterling mist.
