I assume you have aftermarket HIDS? If not it is going on 2004 a custom Japanese ride without HIDS is like a Mustang with a V6 in it. I like Maximas that are clean, classy and pimp (my opinion and will make it known if you post pics of your car ). If your car was an Integra or Civic then fine. But Maximas, TL, GS should look pimp. ie. no stickers at all anywhere (that includes maxima.org), no aftermarket wings (on the trunk, rear window or front lip), NOS is fine just don't advertise it is so played out and cheesy, and PLEASE (for everyone out there who is watching) if you put aftermarket rims and/or a bodykit on your car please drop it first. And if you plan on using NOS, Turbos, SC upgrade your damn brakes especially 2k-2k1 owners! Also big rims don't make a ride look better so don't get the "BET" sydrome all you playas. 20"s do not look good on 1st-5th gens straight up. I don't care how much they cost either.

Your car is close to perfect just needs a lil more and a lil less "in my opinion".

Happy New Year!!
Dude, Everybody on the org does not need to have the same tired *** setup. I chose to do my car the way I did because it appealed to me and thats what I think that matters, and by the way the reason i don't want one of those grills is because first of all to make it look right you have to cut out your stock grille and that is not happening, and also they tend to get too many dimples in them.

P.S. They are ricer fish gills, not ricer chicken wings and I don't go to walmart

This sh$t is hot. This is very interesting how you cleared the front bumper lights and kept the rear red bumper lights.

I like the wheel tuck and want to do the same as well. But I am deciding to get the Tein Coilovers for my 2k3se instead of doing the Tein spring/Tokico combo. I wanna do it right from the beginning even though it is expensive.

Get some more pics! I wanna see more!

well, in my case, i kept the rear red ones too because i've gotten pulled over many times just because of my rear clears...the cops seem to have no problems with the front clears, but they don't like the rears very much...

I think people forgot what the org is all about. The org is about helping others, getting sweet deals, discussions, and getting together to get products made for our cars. It's not to make all are cars the same. All of us have are own original taste which makes are cars different from others. If people didn't make there
cars different you would be at a maxima car meet and all the cars would look the same.

That is very true....Lately there has been a swarm of loud mouth newbies, and its really getting annoying. I remember when I first joined the Org, I was afraid to post anything, let alone flame someone that has been here longer..

Go to this link to see a pic of my car with the tos I will post a pic with the new adjusted ride height once i get one

Dude I like the deep lip on the wheels. It seems like those are hard to get on front wheel drive cars. I like the deep lip on my wheels because you don't get the rock chips on th face of the wheel. The problem with my car is that it looks like a 4X4 the way it sits. Still looking for coilovers. and still taking suggestions on the best ride and brand. Oh and one last thing, its your car so mod it to your specs, not someone elses

Man I agree with you on the lip saving the face of your rim. I haven't had any problem with rock chips.

P.S. Those rims are smooth and they will look even better once you drop your car

Yep, I agree. When you can stick your head between the tire and the fender well, the car has to come down.

hey chris: i was playing with the shock, and i was wondering, it seems like you can do a drop much more than the max 3.5 by turning the bottom mount part up and the coil part down... right?? also what part did you need to modify? front or back...how did you figure out how much to drop??

So you can drop from the spring? My dad and were looking at it and he said it looked like you can only drop from the bottom. I had to file down the hole on the strut mount because it had a half circle with a flat side and the top of the strut was a full circle.(Kinda hard to explain but trust me you'll see what i'm talking about). Also I still have not found my right ride height, i'm still playing with them.
