Hey guys im sort of new here i bought my max about 2 months ago and have done some small mods tell me what you think.


I have also experimented with a product called night shades to tint my tale lights and corner lights i havent taken i pic yet but they turned out real nice.

 

Nice job, Try dropping the car a bit maybe, It will help your wheels fit right in with the huge wheelwells

 

nice max, i think i've seen your car rollin around town.

 

Thanks i dont know where to buy lowering springs, and what brand. What part of houston you live in, im around baker cypress and 290.

 

i'm on the east side of town near the beltway and i-10. i'm up in jersey village quite often since a lot of my good friends are up there.

 

O well what all you got done to yours?

 

nothing much on the outside. just a t-rex billet grill. ordered the greddy sp2 exhaust so i'm waiting for that. my main interest is audio. completely revamped the stock audio.

you done anything else besides the grill and rims?

 

Ya im into the audio thing to i got 3 diamond d3's, have a pioneer screen sitting around from my truck but i dont think i would look good in the max so i have the stock stereo for now.

 

nice, those D3s can hit pretty damn hard in the right enclosure. my friend and i built this ported box for a diamond d3 12, that thing rattled the whole car.

what company made your billet grill?

 

A company called b cool billets. Im in the middle of trying to design a custom enclosure to fit better in my trunk but haven a hard time. Do you have any pics of your setup.

 

lower it! lower it! lower it!

tint it! tint it! tint it!

 

I actually just tinted the windows, and the lights to, but what brand of lowering springs should i get and where.

 

my old setup was just a 2.0 cubic ft sealed box with twin amp mounts attached to the sides. then a carpeted face plate was made and flushed into the box and trunk opening.





BUTTTTT i wanted some trunk space back so i tore it all out and made a wide ported box. 2.5 cu ft tuned to 30hz. it regained about 4-5 inches of usable space. it's not as pretty but it works.

 

thats exactly what i want to do with mine, where did you mount your amp?

 

right behind the box. excuse the wires in those pics...snapped a few during the install process.

 

Anthny,

My preferred suspension set up is with Progress Springs. I've dropped my car on those at it looks yummy! You can order them through Brian Catts with Cattman Products. You have to call to place the order, his site isn't set up to take orders.

Your car reminds me of another I've seen on here. His username was KublckMax. I believe he has sold his car and has gotten a beamer. But his was a clean black max also.

Looks good, welcome to this site. Don't forget to check out

www.6thgenmaxima.org also.

 

tint and lower it like prjct said.. as for springs i have H&r's and i love them... they dont slam it by any means.. but it lowers a nice amouont.... i dont have to worry about taking bumps slow etc...

 

I found this site for progress lower springs best price $159.00 I could find on the web check it out. I hope you don't mind 4myswee.

I think im going to buy the progress springs now, is that the best price for those?

 

Of course not MightyMax! That's awesome of you to help him get a good deal. I'm all for reeling in the deals. That's about average or a bit better. That is what I paid for mine, PLUS shipping. That ran me an additional $25. I did order them from Cattman though.

 

How hard is it to install, and does it come with good instructions?

 

I had really good friends that helped/did it/walked me through the process. I've been able to drop two cars since then, and loved it. (Credit to Blackmaxx_96, Ritz, NCSU_Max and Joel)

Don't let this overwhelm you. Allow yourself time, like a Saturday afternoon. Have some knowledgeable friends around, and you'll love it. Shoot, if you lived closer, I'd donate a Saturday to your cause. Check out the regional group, see if they can hang at your place, and you offer bbq....

 

Also i was planning on installing drilled rotors should i do that at the same time, and when you install rotors you dont have to bleed the system again do you?

 

Black on Black looks sweeeeeeet! Just handed my 4th generation over to my daughter and just got a silver 6th generation. Can't wait to start playing with er.

 

Great job, thanks for sharing!!!

 

I haven't done a brake job yet. I do believe you have to bleed them again. I have heard of someone finding a way around it. I think they kept the calipers pressed in, so as not to let air in the lines!?!
Swee

 

looks decent (besides the drop needed), though I personally don't care for the Greddy catback, personally.

 

I dont even have a catback motor and exhaust all stock. Thanks everybody else tho for the help and complaiments.
