How much money (not to mention time) have you spent modding your Maxima?

 

hehe..you should have a 10k+ option

 

About $600

 

Too much to mention.

 

Those figures are a bit low

 

Yeah, I guess w/ rims and tires, aero kits, s/c's, piping, stereo's, lighting, interior, exterior, braces, brakes, and paint work the price really gets up there.

 

Only spent a little so far, but the future holds a big dent in my wallet.
Since I do all the install myself that saves lots of $$.

 

Heres a list of mod's and there value's and the amount of time it took me to install.

V2 SC with Blitz BOV= $3449 and took 45 Hours to install
Eibach Tokico's = $600 and took 5 hours to install
RSB,STB = $320 and took 2 hours to install
2 pairs of Sylvania True HID's=$1000 and took 2 hours.
Epic rims and yokohama's=$1500 had installed
Cefiro 1 piece headlights=$365 and 1 hour to install
Y-Pipe and Cat-Back exaust=$1000 and took 4 hours

Clutch/Flywheel/Side skirts and a Cefiro grill in the mail
cost=$1100 .

This brings a grand total of $9934,well then I could add in my shift **** and pedals and some other little things and it puts me over 10 Grand{yikes}. I could be driven a 2001 I30T haha. Install time all together was about 60 hours and I hated every second of it!

 

It says MAXIMA!!
Just kidding

I wish I had that kind of cash to throw around, but I'm buying a townhouse. I figure 22years old, nice car, and owning my own place....that's pretty cool. Besides I can't decide if I want to mod my maxima or save for an M3?

 

Ok heres how much I put into my 95 maxima muhahah,
Wheels tires $1500{same as I30}
exaust system and intake $1450{Y-pipe,cat-catback,on I30}
ECU=$525
Handaling components=$920{transferred to I30}
Body Kit=$800{sold and money spent on I30}
One pair of true Hids $525{put on I30}
Clutch Flywheel=800
Gay side panels=$120
Window tine=$200
Bunch of piaa lights=100
Optima YT battery=$200
Grand total on the max was $6720+ I spent about $1500 on installes.So a total of $8220.

 

your stereo alone is close to that high figure

 

How old are you?
At what do you do for a living?

I know...you're a man-*****!!

 

Are you talkin to me Punk! JK
I am 20 years old and go to a cheesy college. I still live at home and my family owns a health food store,I work there quite a bit and make pretty good money,nothing to brag about but I don't have many bills,Just my car payments which are almost done. So basicly I just blow evey dollar I get on my car.

 

Lucky bastard!
I'm just jealous. Hey emax you have to get some kickas$ pics for us. With some good pics you could easily be maxima (or infinity) or the month.

 

no offence there but ummm some of those prices look like you really got taken.. 1000$ for a whole exhaust???

 

Ahh ok, lets see now, Stillen Y-Pipe=$351 and Stillen Cat-Back= $650,so you do the math. I think I may have paid a little more thgen I should have for the cat back system,but at the time I just bought stuff from my local speed shop.


Breaux,Thanks for the compliment. I really need to get some new pics up,my current sig pic is from when my car was almost stock. My damn computer with all my camera software died about 3 weeks ago. The good news is I am getting a 1GHZ Computer with all the nice gizzmo's in a couple days. I will be able to post pics when I get it.

 

whats wrong with buying from local shops?? thats all i do.. much cheaper.. greddy cat back ran me under 500$ is that Y-pipe stainless steel? oh wait stillen doesn't sell one unless you got some special hook up.. muwhahahaha

 

I think I'd pass out if I added it all up and looked at the numbers.

 

You know I got da hook up, T304 Baby! JK
Anways thats the going price for a Y-Pipe.


I30Cefiro come on lets see how much you spent!
Let me guess, $12K-15K?

 

is the 95 for sale with all the mods. if so do you have any pics of it

 

No most the mods got taken off and put on my I30,other mods were sold and the only things left on it is the Optima battery,RT cat,Alloy flywheel,Centerforce clutch,rain guards,Momo Combat ****,clear cornors,97grill,Bra and tint. I will go find a pic and post it for you{of how it use to be}.

Update: Heres a pic,

 

RT cat?

How old and how much you want? Did you feel any power difference? Some say yes, some say no.

 

I wanted to sell it but I could not find a stock one to replace it with. I am finally going to put the max up 4sale this weekend{at last!}. Anyways I'm not going to take the cat back off again so..Sorry

 

Since I can't say anything nice, the moderator decided to change what I had to say.

 

TOTAL CAR AUDIO MODS = About $395.00
TOTAL EXTERIOR BODY MODS = About $252.00
TOTAL INTERIOR BODY MODS = About $485.00
TOTAL SPORT SUSPENSION MODS = About $745.00
TOTAL ENGINE PERFORMANCE MODS = About $85.00
TOTAL CAR MODS = About $1,950.00

 

I added last year about $17K (not including the car)....This year I will add over $10,000, but some of the $$$ I spent on some of the original parts/modifications will be in vain, because they won't be used in the next project.

Pretty sad when you think about it, but its a personal statement.

I like my Maxima and would never sell it.....

(never say never, remember?)

Don

 

WOW!! You're real positive. I think everyone realizes that they modify their cars to be individual.
This is a hobby and this is what we wants to spend our money on.
I mean how come you spend your money on Gay ****? I know most people hear would think that you're 1000+ video collection is a waste of money.

PS - I think you're mommy is calling you for dinner.

 

tint-$150
stereo system-$2800

The content of my post was changed again because I don't have any tact.

 

WTF!?! Who's do you think you are? I know you are CustomMax. My goodness you have no life whatsoever. If you don't like my car that's too bad for you. It's MY car and I really don't care what you think. You belittle others just because you have nothing better to do? You make me laugh since your car has nothing really worth mentioning, right? I'm not planning on selling my car soon, so you don't have to worry about my car. Besides, it's MY car so what does it matter to you in the first place? Geez, get a life. I have said nothing about you or your car, so who do you think you are to criticize me.

 

Thanks. As metallic97gxe said they are Konig Tantrums.

 

Look at you and fugly 20's Got pink lights... are you a poofter or something? Bite the pillow everynight? CustomRiceMax... you need to learn how to use a little tact when commenting other people's cars.

You got a webpage you little dingleberry? I feel sorry for the people that have to look at your ugly tail lights... because no one's going to by that floating boat of yours.

 

Hey FairyBoy... finally coming out of the closet?

 

One more thing. It's interesting to see that you took the time to go to my webpage. I never asked you to go look or to comment about my site. It only proves you have nothing better to do.

LEAVE ME ALONE!

 

I guess I don't qualify as a Maxima technician. For my 1995 GLE I've spent a total of $5.00 for a UNC front logo plate. Oh, and a few bucks for a car cell phone charger.

 

OOhhHH this drama.. wakata. why you getting a sore in your eye for looking at her rims?? neone told u that it's real bad to stare at the comp too long, especially in the same spot.. wut bad paint job?? it's beige.. but u wanna knwo the truth. the majority of us all have crappy paint.. because of regulations on what the manufacture gets to use for paint, the quality has gone down. our paint are now water based that's y it gets chipped so darn easily.. so my advice is if anyone wants to get a paint job go to a shop that's been around for a long long while with a techie that still remebers how to shoot acrylic/enamel paint.. i think that's what it is that stuff turns out real good and last for a long time.
