Yeah, I'm gonna have to get some of those.

Sorta OT: For stock 17s and an H-tech drop what is a good size for spacers in the rear. I'm looking for them to be flush with the front wheels. 15mm?

15mm or 20mm should do the trick fine

I got 15mm's and actually wish I had gone with the 20mm. I like the way mine are pushed out just fine, but there is definitely more room for the spread.

Im ridin on Eibachs, but even with S-tech's I dont think there would be a problem... But my Infin fenders may be slightly different... Didn't think about that.

Fezzik, I know exactly what you mean about that dust shield on the spacer install. I tried so many different ways of removing that damn thing and also had to resort to brute force.

Good write-up though... It would have saved me a good 20 minutes

I had this exact setup. 20mm is a perfect fit.

Nice CLEAN ride fezzik. Gotta like a Stock looking Maxima that could lay the smack down on a lot of unsuspecting cars.

Fezzik, noticed you dyno'd 235 with just intake and headers, do you know what your dynoing with your current set-up(Intake, headers, B-pipe, UDP and Timing advance)??
