but 4-5 weeks and $4000 later I will be happy and broke.

Im excited though Ive waited a while to get this done,
Stillen Kit Installed
CF hood installed w/ pins
New Moldings
Shaved antenna
Shaved Trunk
new front and rear bumper
new custom red pearl paint

after this Im taking a break

Im only gonna spend a max of $400 a month on my car until so I can save up for a new engine, so Ill be able to drive my $4000 body work around for a long time

 

Thats a lot of work going to be done, good work!

 

thanks, like I said Ive wanted my max to look like it will soon, since I had my gxe. Its kinda my realistic dream car. now If I had $250,000 Id be driving a 360 then I'd have my dream car

 

You are like the Shadow or 3rd Gens.

Wow, it looks great now; I can't imagine how great it will look after! It's a whole new level. How come the 4-5 week wait, just a busy shop or are you waiting to get things in?

Good luck, post some pictures.

 

yeah hes kinda busy, the body work should be done in a week or two but he's been backed up with painting becauses hes getting a new booth added on to the back in a month so mine will probably be the first.

 

Alright i'm sure alot of guys are thinking this but won't say it. I think it's cool that you're really into this car but I would have parted out the mods, sell or trade the car, and use the 4000 to finance a new Maxima 6 speed at 0.9% APR

 

His car has heart and soul. Some people like driving around one-of-a-kind vehicles.
-Cyrus

 

Yes but that's what people with modified cars like to do. They are many 4th Gens that have EASILY spent $6k on their car, some of which are only worth that much. The thing is, if you like your car, and it has nothing wrong with it, why change?
-Cyrus

 

The key here is creating a unique custom vehicle...far from rice as possible. What's the point in driving a stock car. Mods add personality to the car...like Cyrus said, heart and soul.

 

I plan on keeping my car as long...

I hope I don't hear this in a few years when I post about my mods!!

I like the car. It was the first real Maxima in my mind. (but then again I am too young to remember gens 1 and 2!)

 

honestly I dont like the look of fourth gens and I could have bought one, but I chose a third gen because I like the "outdated design better" which is BS because its all a matter of taste. and since I dont have Mommy and Daddy to pay for it I can afford the insureance on a new max, and Im not really crazy about that design either.


I see alot of of fourth gens and I wanted something a bit different anyways
the cars almost got 190k on it I couldnt get **** for this car if I sold it anyways, but its cool everyones got their opinion

 

Seemed like that other dude who traded-in his high mileage 98 got less than 4k for it when getting the used Pathfinder.

Was $400/mo for this car a typo? I don't think you can even borrow on a 92 anymore, but if you could, why? Maybe it's a home equity loan?

 

Why are you not getting the door moldings shaved?





Chris

 

dont like how it looks, that line continues the lines on the front and back bumper.

 

I think that many will agree that the 3rd gen was a great design- much better than the 4th and 5th gens- but of course everyone has their opinion...
NJ- great work on the car, I can't wait to see it.
BTW, what engine are you putting in? You should try a vg33e!

 

some day i want to be big cool n modded like n34. lol myb in about 3 more years i will b sumwhere a/b 4 or so k into my car. at which point my engine will brek down and will be a modded non running dust collector.

 

hey when it's done post lots of pics!
