Birth:
I bought her in september of 06. she had only 40,xxx on her and she was sitting pretty on 18's. i loved that she was 5spd and that it was a hard to find model also the SE-L aanyway i used it as a dailydriver for a bit till i paid off my loan and what not






Mods:

In december of 07 i started to mod the car. here is my mod list
-lambo doors(BIG NO NO)
-altezza led tails
- brembo rotors and 300zx calipers
-new deck speakers tweaters subs and custom trunk
-short shifter
-stage 3 act clutch kit
-hids for hi beams low beams and fogs
-r34 headlights 1 peice
-injen cold air intake
i no theres more i just cant remember




Death:
In december of 08 i lost my full time job of 3yrs and i left my gf and walked out on my fam that ****ed me over beyond belief and i gave up with highschool just didnt care for much only my car.long story short i had to take a detour one night when it was raining hard as ****s , so i took this road and pretty much hydrolocked the max. i was a mile away from home so i pushed her home and next morning tried to clean out all the water and what not but she wouldnt start.she sat for about 4-5 months




Rise:
I finally found job 5months later and i found a spare motor for the car so i saved up money for the max to be towed to my buddys dealership and for them to put in the motor . but since it sat thru the winter the body started to get all ****ed up and brakes rusted out and what not


Fall:
in march of 09 my tranny blew up , the forks were bad and it just blew up in the middle of a bust road. it wasnt too bad since i had money saved up but still was a headache that took the car out of comission for about 2months



Rise:

2 months later i had her back on the rooad and i just drove her to and from work and i didnt do anything with the car except that until i realized that the car needed to be treated how it was when i first bought it which was like it was my kid


Rebirth:

So when i nknew i was good with money and my job was steady i decided to treat my baby good again. i decided to start working on my restoration of my max.I knew i had alot of work todo bc i had todo the whole inside and outside of the car , i needed to redo the whole car i wanted to make the car completely how i want it to be . i started this project in march of 2010 and let me tell you all this this car has treated me well and has gotten me lots of pussyyyyy so this car deserves this restoration,
This car got me lots of pussyyyy? Really? I mean REALLY!?! For some reason I find this hard to believe? Maybe fat chick *****! Bwahhhhh
