finally got my maxima!

Just bought a 2k maxima gxe 5 speed with 41k miles for $12k. and i love it!!! nice interior, style, and most of all performance!
just gotta get used to the manual, should be no problem within a week of practicing. This is a big jump from my old 94 mx6 ls auto. since the maxima the comfort and room.
I'm gonna sell my mx6 with 119k miles for about $2,500 or less...after i get the money i want to modify the maxima with injen intake, y-pipe, rsb, new wheels and tires. but got any other suggestions of what i should do with the money? oh, and also should i get the 17" or 18" rims? how much will the size of the rims affect the stright liine performance?

hmmm $2000 -- i would go the suspension route but that is just me...also it wouldn't be as much as $2000 for suspension (well if you include tires and rims it may surpass 2k easily)

tires are a must mod! I still need to do that...and also start modding the car! it's still a virgin

congrats, welcome to 2k GXE 5spd club lol. I would recommend 17"s over 18"s. You can buy a brand new decent set for about $1100 shipped. Also, don't forget to check out .org classifieds for some used listings.
