i went to this car show this weekend. there weren't any maxima's entered but i spotted another one parked outside, with the eibach drop and the stillen aero kit installed. so i went looking for the dude, and we pulled our cars next to each other and i took some snaps. could be useful to some people deciding what kind of drop and what kind of body kit.

from these pics i think i'm going to go with the h&r's, cause i think i want to go a little bit lower, it's not too noticeable with the eibachs compared to my stock SE.

you could always mix and match.. ninja front, stillen sides and rear, or AE sides and rear..

Nice pics! Either that guy took out his fog lights or he has a GXE/GLE with SE tail lights...Can you verify which he has?

he's got a gxe. i guess he took off the covers, that were in place of the fogs. he said he has an intake maybe he rerouted it down there.

Nice pics...too bad it was so dark outside.
Sure, try and mix and match. Personally, I don't think that it would be that awful if you were to decide on the Stillen kit because there are a couple of minor differences between your two cars (clear corners, spoiler, rims, etc...)

my camera sucks at digital stills too, so it's not just the weather, though the weather did suck. my camera is a digital video camera.

i like your camera, what kind is it?

true, about the subtle differences. we'll see if i can come across a large amount of money. lol. right now i'm using my scholarship money for the car.

Using scholarship $$$ for the car... Keep us posted. I have a Kodak DC3400. A decent camera for a good price.

well, it's not the money that pays for the courses and book s that i'm using. it's the money that is leftover after paying for all of that.

i have my priorities. family, friends, school, then anything else (maxima). i think this is the order, can't think of anything else right now.

Um...that's a tough one... Since this is Maxima.org, I would have to say springs.

we are in orlando, florida.

maxima's with mod's around here are rare. i know there are more white maxes around the country with the set-up. but i'm talking about locally that people can see.

irvine78, you are the only max that i've seen with that front kit on. so for now your the only one with that set-up. =).
