I paid over 500 for them, so those things I tend to remember.

Since I pussed out and sold them again, I wanted to see the gains the person I sold them to would see, so once again, I remember that shti.

Meh, they're both OG's so, I had no worries.

Of course, do whatever you want. But I swapped the OEM bulbs in the vanity mirrors for LED's, and my advice is don't do it. It will look very pretty, but it will also be completely useless. LED lighting just isn't properly functional for vanity mirrors.

How many minutes of your life did you just waste on needless irritation? Just leave him alone, cjandura. Laugh at him when it's fun, but life's too short to actually argue with the guy. There's no point.

I'll have to disagree. I love my LED'd vanity mirrors.

Well my friend's car is auto, but I'm sure it's the same problem w/ Manuals but at least it's avoidable.

It sounds like bees in a can or a little kid making fart noises with their mouth @ certain rpms, it's so loud people think the cabin is rattling.

but at other rpms the car is whisper quiet, it was really bad 2k-3k cruising around town, or at WOT.

llab, called it, cut off the muffler it actually gets rid of quite a bit of rasp but adds noise, should be better w/ a manual though, instead of the friggin TC engaging and disengaging causing the revs to just stay in the drone zone range w/ no muffler.

GT-R still in the barn is it?

Honestly, I don't understand why you don't sell the GT-R, and sell the Maxima, then buy an Infiniti M56x, since you're so into Nissans.

at this point with both maxima down because i took them apart it looks like i'll have to use it for DD again i didnt want to do that but stuff happens.i think i have the highest mileage one on the fourm 54k+/-.i wont sell the maxima's one because for some oddball reason i like the 03 body style and the 97 was always planned to be used as the extra family use car it was always reliable and served me well over the years.things only went south when i started to tinker with them

It must be for the hobby, then. For the fun of it. Because I simply don't understand how you can own a half-dozen automobiles, including a GT-R for crissakes, and yet keep farting around with a 10 year old, mid-level sedan as your daily.

And you were wondering why I voted you most weird ghustler. Well, there it is.

the car was actually a forced buy on me remember back when my orignal 03 was stolen my wife nagged me to get a new car to the point i ended up in a E350 and i was extremly unhappy with the whole image and it fits your age lingo my wife was using to force the purchase and justify it.2 weeks after i had the car i happened to be driving by exton nissan and they had this red gt-r out there and at the time i didnt know nothing about the car but it spoke to me and in a wicked way so the test drive hooked me and 4 months later i was in Black obsidian i swear i dont know how it happened.
