btw, where did you get those eyelids for your headlights? those are WICKED!!!

HitManSE Apr 20, 2003 07:26 PM

Nice H, looks sweet. Seems you have the same exhaust problem I had. Damn muffler is like 4" behind the end of the rear valance. The car looks sweet though. Btw how wide are the rims that you got 8" or 8.5"? The reason I ask it I dont know exactly how low you can go w/o any rubbin with the 8.5" wide rims. I dont know if you can sit on Sprints or Teins, they will definetly look better thats 4 sure. :)

Welcome to the gang although its just me and you in it. Those rims made your ride look bad ***:thumbsup:. I wish I went with the 20's but 18's will do for now.

HitManSE Apr 20, 2003 08:18 PM

Just to give those who are asking about the sidemarkers a heads up a bit earlier. You use paint and remove the bulbs from the sidemarkers.

celicafreek876 Apr 20, 2003 08:47 PM

damn thats hot..I was thinkin of gettin 19's but now I think 20's will be perfect...

MiniRX7 Apr 20, 2003 09:13 PM

I LOVE IT!!

I wanna get 20's

however, how does it affect your acceleration, and handling with such HEAVY@SS rims..??

MaximaZero Apr 20, 2003 09:14 PM

PoweredbyNissan Apr 20, 2003 09:23 PM

That grille was actually made for some type of Ford. I cut and trimmed it to fit my grille opening. I did have to cut the factory grille out...it was not that fun to do.

All I did was get some Night Shades tint and kept on spraying till I got my look. The front marker was sprayed, then I had some leftover vinyl sticker which I cut to mimic the rear marker. It works great...the front is no longer yellow when it lights up at night...its red just like the rear.

No sh!t you kept the lights functional? Steve used paint on his so obviously the light wont shine through his side markers are no longer funtional. Looks good though.

For the eyelids, I took some heavy paper, made a template out of it, and traced it onto some silver vinyl and voila...

No worries at all...I mean I am watching the road alot more now than before...but overall, the ride is not what people make it out to be. I actually feel my steering to be a bit more stiffer than stock. Also the suspension has been great..and I also do not race with these wheels on.

thrasher Apr 21, 2003 01:26 AM

seriously man, your Max is nice as hell!!! i don't think i have ever seen one before that look so classy while still having obvious aftermarket additions. props on a job very well done!:bowdown1:

big h Apr 21, 2003 07:27 AM

Thanks guys! I totally appreciate your comments!

maximamaybe Apr 21, 2003 08:08 AM

Very sweet setup. I also like your carbon fiber accents on the inside. You have one sweet max.

NT2SHBBY Apr 21, 2003 08:20 AM

Hey big h...this might sound stupid but I just realized, looking at your interior pic I noticed your guages....they're in KM so I am assuming you're from Canada....

Haha...I rarely see that over here......

big h Apr 21, 2003 01:13 PM

Thanks ...and yup I'm from Canada...Calgary Alberta!

celicafreek876 Apr 21, 2003 01:21 PM

well I did it..I got my 20's today and gonna get them put in tomorrow..big h you made me do it(well not really) but because of your pics and how sweet they looked made me do it..will post pics soon!

Galo Apr 21, 2003 01:24 PM

Most folks here know my taste for wheels...
 
I dont care for wheels over 18" but I must say your max looks tight.

I would not do mine this way but definitely, a very, VERY classy and tasteful job.....well done!

:thumbsup:

max...to the ma Apr 21, 2003 03:19 PM

awesome. who's tiburon is that?

TheOzzfather Apr 21, 2003 03:37 PM

I hate 20inchers the look like crap
 
But yours are off the hook man. That is one of the sickes rides I have seen in a long time. Bravo bravo bravo. My 2003 is the same color as yours I think I want some now!!!! How much how much how much??

Maxima-2 Apr 21, 2003 03:47 PM

NICE!
 
I'm glad I only got 18"ers, but your car looks sweet! Show-worthy! good job keep us informed.
P.S. Watch out for those damn potholes! lol

KLOOGY Apr 21, 2003 05:38 PM

:thumbsup: Having seen so many hideous looking Dubs rollinig around the streets, you sure picked a nice set. Bling with caution !;)

Those are some of the kits I have been interested for my wifes car. I'm going with the razzi kit.

PoweredbyNissan Apr 21, 2003 09:43 PM

so how wide are your wheels, and what offset? are ur suspension stock? it looks soo good, i want to make my car just like that!

big h Apr 21, 2003 09:50 PM

To be honest I have no clue what the offset is..the wheel is 8.5" wide and the suspension (other than the Maxspeeds) is stock.
harry.

PoweredbyNissan Apr 21, 2003 09:58 PM

what about the tire size, how wide?

big h Apr 21, 2003 10:31 PM

245/35/20 toyo t1s

studman Apr 21, 2003 10:40 PM

Wow, it actually looks good. That's the first set of 20s I've seen that I actually like. And seeing them on the car lets me know that 20s will look good. But we've definitely got to do something about those little itty bitty rotors and brakes. But great looking car.
