i am getting ready to drop about 1200 on my car, and i need some help. i want a greddy sp for my 97 maxima, but i don't know what else to get. let's all be realistic with our responses. thanks

 

well, we kinda need to know what ya already have...but get some:

clear corners
drop car (struts/shocks and springs)
clear out tails (either DIY or pay for new tails)
tint
exhaust
y-pipe


yup, this is coming from a guy who has 1/6 of that list accomplished...the clear corners ...it'll be 2/6 after tomorrow when i get my max tinted

 

sorry, i already have 15% tint all around, clear corners, 2 jl 12w3's, a jl 500.1 amp, new shifter ****, and that's all. thanks again

 

ok, well, then most people will tell you to start out with some performance such as a y-pipe, and maybe a CAI...then drop the car

how do you like your sound system? how much did the subs and amp cost you? i might be lookin into a new system for my car

 

i got the subs and amp from www.buyloud.com. pretty good prices if you ask me. they sound so awesome with the bose setup. if you want bass, you have it, clarity, it's there. aren't y-pipes illegal? what are the benefits from CAI?

 

yes, y-pipes are illegal, and the benefits from a CAI is that the induction of the colder air from the outside increases power...because it is less restrictive than the stock (if i'm not mistaken), more air enters the engine resulting in increased power

and how hard was it to add on the subs to the bose setup? because i definitely need some subs before i blow out my bose tryin to push a lotta bass outta it

 

when i bought the subs, i didn't install them. i had the sound shop around me do it. it didn't take them long at all, so i don't think it would be hard to do if you know what you are doing, and have the right parts.

 

any other opinions on what to do with the money. i know that you all have input to give, because most of you have dumped money into your cars. thanks
