kloogy & Woo Cho: Thanx for the replies. As you may have noticed i'm a new member and also new to the nissan badge. I recently crossed over to a new 2k3 nissan SE TE edition. (I used to be a honda/acura owner.) Right now my car has only 250 miles on it. I'm still in the "break-in" process. I'll be doing some mods in the spring/summer but before that i wanted to research on certain mods (ex.:air intakes,springs/shock combo,coilovers etc) before purchasing any produst for the car. Again thanx for helping a fellow member out.
Other members....post them pics of your dropped 5th gen maximas.

Thanks for the props. I actually still havent bought the Toks and am still on stock struts with the eibach. I personally think the ride and the drop is great. In that pic I have 18x8 Mille Miglias on 245/40-18 Nitto 555. Tomorrow I am putting some 19" on the car and will post pics. The stillen sides and rear will fit on the 2003 but the front the only have a touring kit??/ I think that is what it is called... I personally like this one better. I am tryiing to convince Kloogy to mold on like mine on his car if Stillen doesnt come out with one like mine for the new ones.

cwally since you and kloogy's rides are dropped on eibach pro-kits and maxspeeds. Do you or kloogys tires rub on the fender since it has been lowered? Did you rub at all on 18in rim/tire combo?

I have had as many as 5 people in the car, and no rub whatsoever... Going price for 19's with Nitto 555's , expect to pay low to mid 2k's....


My intake is awesome. I love it. It is a Frankencar Midpipe, with a Berk Tuning adaptor, and Filter.... I received the bracket from Steve at Frankencar. Sounds GREAT ! Good high end RPM power.....PM me if you need any other info... Always willing to help a new Max owner..
