I think you need to sell your 02 Max and get an I30/35.

Get the RWD and drift the shiz out of it, screew AWD. I gaurantee you would be the only one out there on drift day in a Cefiro.

A31 only (88-92). A32 chassis were FF only. Funny that these A31s share engines and drivelines with S13s and Skylines. Another proof that we don't get (as) fun japanese cars.

I'm sorry sooner that ur boring and different but it would technically be from the japanese domestic manufacturer so yeah so go shove that bowl of rice up ur $^%*& and don't hate ,I wanted to do something that I havent seen done yet and I'm sorry that u feel that way

yeah it's a maxima but it beats most other japanese cars stock, even though its a four dour family luxury car, that should make it even more respectable seeing how it beats just about every other car from Japan so go hate on someone that needs it like a honda boy putting a muffler on a car and speeding around town thats rice

what? i have no idea what you are b1tching about
why are you defending a maxima with me?
like i said
1. the cefiro is not a japanese maxima (the maxima is not sold in japan)
2. there is nothing "JDM" for a maxima (the maxima is not sold in japan)
3. if you want to do a cefiro conversion, do it to an infiniti (an american cefiro)

ps. you have proven many times in this thread that you dont know what you are talking about

It has been done

Trying to make your car something its not is just as as putting a muffer on a Honduh.

I saw a Neon with a BMW badge on it yesterday. I wish I had my camera with me at the time and/or that I wasn't talking on my phone because it would be the perfect pic for this thread.
