Just got back from SEMA... saw lots of neat things. Saw lots of neat new toys for my Honda.
Saw one maxima. It was at the Nissan area. Had a HKS Supercharger. a 2000 SE. I was expecting to see more Maximas, nope. Only one. about 4 new sentras. One altima. NO mention of the AE Maxima.
But, the coolest Nissan there was... .drums.
The Ultima. That is one badass little car. The dash looks kinda like a 70s buick =)...but, was pretty nice everywhere else.
There was a red F40 which was just kick ***. A few S7s (the Saleen racecar).
Otherwise, pretty ok show. I was really sick of seeing all the focuses (foci?) and new eclipses...but, oh well.

BRAVO to the person who built it and shot it with the khromallusion color.
Can we get some specs on it ?
HKS supercharger ?
Don't they specialize more in Turbos ?
Bah Who knows....but the Sentra is Nice. Clean car.
Sick of seeing Axis SE7ENS though

Yes, that was one of the sentras there. Nice paintjob, but, I'm thinking, i coulda had my max out there being showcased if that sentra with stickers, rims, lowered, and a nice paintjob could be showcased!
I checked the Stillen booth (or the only one i found), it was just about brake upgrades?! I didn't see anything else?!
No 300zxs, no RX-7s, one 3000gt, two supras (maybe three), a handful of Skylines, 800 Focuses, 500 Eclipses, 600 PT Cruisers, etc.
A few other really cool cars were two Panoz GT (SCCA race-prepped $54k? race cars)...and a Nissan 240sx? SCCA Club racing car.
I went looking for suspension pieces for both my maxima and my honda. Only thing i found was Tokicos for the maxima.
I didn't dive too much into engine mods or engine performance. I did look for some intakes, but, nothing was found.

Tokico Shocks ?
Hi Solo, what do you think about Tokico Shocks, are they suppose to be good, are they a lot better than factory SE stocks ? Read in one of the threads that Stillen has them for $300 and something the full set.

I personally love Konis. I have them on my CRX and they do wonders. They are only rebound adjustable and have the 3 stage height adjustment, but, man, do they rock.
Tokicos...i dunno. I know the illumina iii's are extremely popular for 86.5-92 Supra owners. mainly because they fit with the adjustable suspension (aka TEMS).
I would rather wait till Koni comes out with a full shock rather than inserts.
