maxima plans for the year 2006?

just wondering what mods everyone is planning this year. mine include:

1. Illumina shocks/ struts and H-tech springs. shipping next week.
2. clear corners
3. wheel spacers
4. AE sills

much more, but I gotta pace myself. Which is very hard I must add.

my max is completely bone stock, and i'm in college so i can't really make any money until this summer, but hopefully this summer i'll have:

1) Illuminas w/ H&R or Eibach springs
2) Budget Y-pipe
3) Black nismo shift ****
4) Red rear signal bulbs
5) Smoked side markers
6) Tints (35% all around)
7) Z rims (if i can afford them)
8) System
a) Alpine CDA-9835 (already have it)
b) Monitor 1 Mk2.70, Mk4.70, Mk2.120 Amplifiers (already have them)
c.) Raamat Sound Deadener
d.) KnuKonceptz wiring
e.) Seas CA18RNX mids
f.) LPG 25NFA tweeters

If i can get half of that, i'll be happy (and poor)

Since i'm new to the whole maxima scene, I picked my 03 Maxima SE/6spd slightly wrecked but very very fixable. So while it's in the body shop im putting on the ebay/stillen replica front & rear lips.

also for 2006:
Eibach Springs & some kinda aftermarket shocks or just go with the TEIN SS w/edfc.
Some top brand header(s)
Some top brand exhaust
CAI
VAFC/SAFC
Aftermarket Resonated cat.
PIAA Amber Fog Bulbs, or 5000k HID in the fogs.

What else do you folks suggest?

I figure with the rest of the mods, I might as well make it look as mean as it'll run! After seeing Chernmax step it up a notch on my engine cover paint, I gotta blow him away by mid summer. We both live in MD and occaisionally meet to get grub at lunchtime.

Your sig is too big... Your shrouds are coming loose on the front pass side, and a little bit on the driverside.

in this area, you're not kidding....At a bare minimum, I'll have to sell my townhouse to afford one...they run about $550,000+ in this area

once I buy that, the maxima will be getting NO mods for a while. And I'll have to get a 3rd, 4th, and 5th job.

1. Infinity Kappy Perfect 12.1 Sub (just got it)
2. Alpine MRP-M350 amp (next week)
3. 18" or 19" Axis Wheels
4. Drop the Max down low... Tokico struts, don't know about springs...
5. New component speakers in the front and in the back...

I'll be happy with all this... maybe an exhaust, we'll see. Oh and I'm gonna replace the MAF for the f--k of it to see if it makes a big difference...
