Thank you, that's all we were asking for is pics....many people come on here and talk **** about what they have, and never offer any proof. People can claim anything they want on the internet

hooray for you. Who's going off-topic now? Nobody asked about your rims, and nobody cares about your bragging. I could buy 5 sets of those rims if I really wanted to. Who cares?

Take all your rice rockets and come back when you get a real sportscar like mine, biatch...just kidding about that, but you buy alot of cars. Big whoop. I have 2 Triumph GT6's, of which only a couple thousand were made EVER. You don't hear me bringing them up for no reason. Oh yeah, I've also owned a 1G integra....what a POS that was.

There were "imports" long before integras...hell my import was from before Acura was even a thought in anyone's head....

Those must be some boring forums you joined. The Acura and Mazda forums I go on have all kinds of people calling BS, joking, flaming, etc. And the Honda/Acura ones are far worse than you'll ever see here. So let me know where these "civilized" forums are, OK? BTW, what's your screenname on the Mazda 3 forums, since I go on there occasionally?

Your point is?
Do you know what a Zenith-Stromburg is? Do you know what a Raptor Minilite is? Do you know what a BlehmCo Stage 2 LTB is?

Trust me, plenty of us know what an HKS twin power is, and some here have tried it - you are not breaking any new ground. People have tried it here, and people can comment on how useless it is with firsthand knowledge. Stop being arrogant and assuming that you magically are the *first* to try anything...

Several people here HAVE reached 400whp, by the way. And you most certainly HAVE NOT, so once again, shut the hell up and stop your BS'ing.

Yes, that means it is useless unless you're pushing 400whp. Which you are not. So for you, it's useless.

I'd say pretty much every established member here knows of tein coilovers. Stop acting like you're some suspension guru. My suspension will take you on any corner, any time, in the rain, in the snow, in the summer, in the winter......and that's without coilovers.

I can tell you even the staff in stillen don't know how to install it, because I have called them a few days ago. Glad I didn't ask "how to install edfc" in the forum, cuz all I will get is people calling me B.S.
blah blah blah. Do you know what a stage 3 SFC is?

We all know what they are, and we all know that they are useless.

The national enqirer said that an Alien Baby was born last week. I bet you believe that too. You see, companies MARKET/ADVERTISE in magazines, and the magazines pimp their products. That's how the retail business works.

The factory ignition is good enough so that I do not need to modify it.
Again, you are not trying anything that people haven't tried before. You're no Lewis&Clark...

That's a joke...you're not even close. There are more parts for the Maxima than just the ones in the Stillen catalog.

I think the moderator should ban your sorry ***, since you are not bringing anything useful to these forums, just bragging about all the mods you have and how much money you spend on things. My hero

well... it's nice to know you can afford a camera too.....

Now, you got your answer, so just go back away to where you've been lurking. Nobody is interested in you bragging about throwing money down the toilet.....Nobody cares about all the "imports" you might have owned....

If you can't take a little "constructive criticism" then you're not gonna have much fun here. It seems you're just looking for everyone to say "man, your car is kewl...neato!"...good luck with that.

By the way, you never told me what brand of LTB you have, since you have "every suspension mod on the planet" supposedly........so what kind? Stillen, Cattman, or Neuspeed?






damn...that felt good. Been a long time since I got on a rant like that. It's kind of a nice break from talking about Maximas

After Cutler's and Irish's responses, and after seeing the idiocy of this guy's posts, I can see that anything I post will be useless now anyways...

I did have a couple minor things to add:

That, is why we have these forums and how people learn stuff, its called research; be it searching the internet, reading books, etc... they read, they process, and they learn... how did ya know that you had to use gasoline in your car? Did ya go out and try orange juice, water, paint, etc before concluding that gasoline worked best? No, ya didn't. Ya read it somewhere, or someone told ya, and ya believed it. Do we always believe what we read? No, but that's where common sense, discernment, and judgement comes in. You obviously did not know that, because if ya did, ya wouldn't have gotten the HKS Twin Power to start with.

Cutler gave ya a perfectly reasonable response the first time, to which your response was completely unreasonable and unwarranted.

Also, my head is hurting from reading all the crap you're posting, please stop or seek help: http://www.betterwritingskills.com/

Wow, Irish just killed this kid. Careveryday, I think it's great that you apparently have boatloads of cash to dump into your Maxima, wonderful. Here's a thought though. Why don't you save the money from all the crap that you bought, i.e. voltage stabilizer, Twin Power, and maybe even the grounding kit, and buy a VQ35DE? Wanna make more power, start there. I've seen them going for around $1000, and swapping to that engine would instantly get you more power than you're getting right now. Wait, do you know what a VQ35DE is? It's the 3.5L engine that makes 255hp. Anyways, stop blowing your money and spend wisely so that you can make the best Maxima possible.As for the BS, it's interesting that you posted pics of the supposed HRE wheels with no center cap? How come? Maybe because they're not really HRE? From one newbie to another, don't come on here and start blabbing away about things you don't know about because this forum is FILLED with experienced gear heads who know about Maximas then you could ever imagine. People on this site have tried EVERY mod, know what works, what doesn't, what's a scam, and where you should buy the parts. We all help each other out. If you don't like how things are working out for you go back to BC and cal Stillen to help you out. By the way, try to take an ESL course. Half of your posts make no sense at all.

careveryday... i have just read all your posts and i am being tortured by a question: If you have so much money to waste and if you a such a great tuner, why did you buy an AUTOMATIC front wheel drive car and waste your money on upgrades that might eventually get you to run high 14s? if you are so rich and car-smart, i think you could have purchased a more sportier car that at least has a rear wheel drive and manual transmission?

P.S.

if you have so much money, why does an automatic transmission stopping you from going forced induction? there are dozens of maxima owners with turbo/superchargers and they have an automatic...

Considering that there are thousands of members here, you sure are taking a losing bet there. We've got no problem with 's at all. We were all 's at some point. The fact is, when someone comes on to this forum and starts talking **** , excuse us if we dont jump on the ball and offer up advice. We are proud of our cars, and the simple opinion that the HKS is not worth the money by the Org here is difinitive proof that its a waste of money. Spend your 600 bucks on a new audio system or new exhaust (God knows the benefits of releasing up that exhaust!). Since most of us have been here for a while, we get tired of these random Noobs poppin up and saying that even though there car is *exactly* the same as ours or *slightly modified*, suddenly its better than anyone elses.

If our ignition systems were so out of wack and could see any huge power gains by switching to aftermarket, then NOLOGY would have OWNED that market by now. They, in fact, make nothing for our cars.

We ARE here to help each other out, but as long as its friendly. We dont like helping someone who's stand-offish and thinks they have something others can only dream about. Try sugar next time, it works better.

i agree for the most part. the only problem is the 3.5 does not put out 255 at the crank stock. you can see in the dyno forum that nissan understated torque and overstated hp. just fyi.
