Show me pictures of your S-Tech drop..I'll show mine tomorrow.
 
:) I put on my S-Techs and I like the ride so far.....I take it easy where I know there are holes and bumps....

Hamy Jul 29, 2004 09:04 PM

Ah why not...I have posted pics in a while. Here is my S. Tech drop. I'm very happy with it as I'm sure you will be. It could use to be a bit more stiff but oh well its a Maxima how stiff do you want it...

Hamy, stop posting pics of wildmanuals car! :)

Hamy Jul 29, 2004 09:25 PM

I think the main difference between my car and wildmanuals is the fact mine looked like it does 6 months before his...oh and the custom powdercoated 3 piece wheels. :thumbsup: Actually I would like to meet up with him at some point and take pics...I think they would turn out great.

AKM2k5 Jul 29, 2004 09:28 PM

Haha, you know im kidding.. How far does he live from you?

yes..........

MaximaPolak Jul 30, 2004 12:05 PM

Hamy, I love the way your car looks....

How high is that lip with those S-Techs? I'm curious because i might want to buy one :)
Can you take a picture with a tape measure, measuring how high it is?

Why does the back of yours look higher? Seems weird...it's still up.

maxpol, I love how you painted your rims, looks like they were painted straight from the factory.. My question is what type of paint did you use and did you spray anything on top of the paint to keep is from fading or pealing off in the heat... Oh, and how did you paint it on sooo smooth?

MaximaPolak Jul 30, 2004 12:11 PM

It's not really smooth....you can't see the streaks....:( but i'm going to repaint them and this time actually wait until the wheels dry....

I used regular old all purpose paint....and some clear coat...:)

AKM2k5 Jul 30, 2004 12:13 PM

Maxpol, why didnt you paint them chrome and make it look like the 03 Titanium Edition? Chrome would look sweet on that beautiful color..:)

I don't like chrome....I like black....a stealthy look!

Bumb? :\

Slick drop, Polak. Looks really good.

Ka$hThaRipper Jul 30, 2004 12:30 PM

what struts are you guys using? is the s-tech + [your strut] combo as smooth as the alleged h/r + illumina?

It's still settling...it's been on for less than 24hrs and i like it so far....It will get a bit lower after it settles...:)

MacAlert Jul 30, 2004 12:55 PM

Get your rims powdercoated!!! Nice drop BTW.

AKM2k5 Jul 30, 2004 01:28 PM

so do you think i will do any damage, does it bother you .... Im about to put 20's on and I am trying to decide which springs to put on, progress or tein, thats why I ask

Hamy Jul 30, 2004 01:55 PM

The rear seems higher in that one pic because of how the car is sitting. That road dips in the middle and is higher on the sides. Its an even drop....anyhow about the MT lip, I'll get back to you on that. I just can't get over skandalouz's car!! 20s with S. Techs thats a must do for me now. Whats the offset?

skandalouz Jul 30, 2004 01:55 PM

doesnt really bother me.... i could roll my fenders.. but i dont hav ethe time...
it only rubs when i go over pretty big bumps or dips....not too bad...

mclarengts1 Jul 30, 2004 02:00 PM

cool cool, well if I get back from the desert in time maybe Ill see you at NOPI (I see you from ATL)

skandalouz Jul 30, 2004 02:28 PM

offset is 40.... yeah.. ill be down to meet up if ur ever in atlanta....... hopefully ill have my MT lip and stillen sides/rear on by then.....

It's better as in handeling....but in ride comfort it's rough...you can feel everything.

MaximaPolak Jul 30, 2004 04:08 PM

I didn't know 2k1s had a Majestic Blue....VERY NICE :bowdown1:

Nathan Jul 31, 2004 12:50 PM

Wow, thats some major bling! Those 20's fit nicely and the lip is insane!

BrandonSE Jul 31, 2004 06:14 PM

Is the S-tech the lowest you can go with aftermarket springs on the max? besides coilovers of course.
