So you are adding or replacing the stock one with the RSB mod ?

I'll be at Maxus 02 if it's in Vegas.
Damn, if I didn't know you were kidding, I'd be bawling my eyes out. S/Cing my auto is my only hope and if I can't break into 13's with close to the standard pulley, I'm gonna be ****ed. Then it'll really be time for the 5spd...

Nothing to start out.

Bose stereo CHECK
17" wheels CHECK
nice interior trim CHECK
sunroof CHECK
Y pipe FUTURE
Intake FUTURE

My RSB was stuck on. Couldn't undo the bolts. I'm going to ask the dealer to take it off for me.

I have the FSTB, chrome sills, Passport hardwire kit, and clears off the car.

Anyone want to buy my anniversary edition kick plates. They are for the frost interior. I have black now.

Paul, any mods planned? Your RSB should still fit just fine

Paul, I will hopefully soon join you as a 2002 6 speed Majestic Blue owner. Only thing is I am leasing so won't do much mods. RSB and FSTB sounds like good ideas, and tinted windows ;-) That's all the mosts I am gonna have. CAI, hmm may be. Don't have much $ to spend.

Cool! The Majestic Blue is the best Maxima color.

Sorry... missed that question. No it doesn't have them. That comes with HLSD, which I do not have.

Ya know this is just a logical progression for Paul...we all knew he was gonna get the 2k2 and that he wouldn't be able to resist!

First he gets the GXE/auto. Then he puts some SE equipment on it. Then he puts some AE equipment on it. Then when the 2k2 comes out he goes out and immediately buys the 2k2 tails. Then the 2k2 6speed comes out and he just goes and buys the whole car!

Congrats Paul!!! Now you've gone all the way! :-D

don't worry. Following the Paul-tradition, he'll get the pedals when they come out too. And hell, I wouldn't put it past him if he swapped in the HLSD tranny, or even added it if possible

I don't think the car will have enough to break into the 13's with a stock pulley on an auto UNLESS you have the following:

1) TC
2) VB
3) 15" wheels
4) racing slicks
5) practice

I plan on the TC and VB, but will probably keep my 16's and Kumho (one of these days) tires. What kind of pulley do you think would be required for 13's?

At least 3.33... and with plenty of practice.

Ok, with that stuff on auto to get those 1/4 times, what would you happen to be doing 0-60 and 0-100 in?? I'm just wondering cause I don't go to the track much and don't convert very well.

0-60 in low 5's (maybe high 4's)
0-100
1/4 in mid to high 13's (with good traction and plenty of practice)

What did you pay for your 2K Max originally and what did they give you on trade? I'm interested in knowing how much the trade cost you.

3.25 it is...still got yours and wanna sell it? As far as the practice goes, I definitely agree with you there, and besides, who in their right mind would mind practicing with a s/c Maxima?

I wouldn't practice too much if I were you... you still want to drive your car, right?

No more 3.25 pulley because I gave it to Chebosto. You can order it online at http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com

Hell my K&N drop in gave me those kinda times. Seriously though I wish my auto max was that fast. But alas here comes the 6-speed.

Excellent man!!! What did you do with the mods on your old car? I'm curious as to what your talking about when you mentioned about the pin pulling technic to engage reverse. Can you take a picture of it if you can? Once again, SWEET
