A new Maxima in my family!!!!!!!!

My dad loved my Maxima so much, that he decided to buy one too. It is a 97 SE. It is such a sweet looking car. I like the look of it better than mine




It has Cattman Gen2 coilovers, and when you go over bumps, it is really bouncy and lots of front suspension noise, why would it be doing this, or how can it be fixed?

Now we have two Maximas and an X-Terra, now if someone wants to buy the Camaro we will be at all Nissans!

Your dad's Maxima is gorgeous. I absolutely love the custom paint. Anyways Cattman coilovers are notorious for the clunking/creaking, from what I hear there is nothing you can do about it.

That is a very very nice color, I like I like. However, how old is your dad. Kind of unusual for your dad to drive a modded Maxima. It's not "your father's oldsmobile"

We bought it from cantgofast. The pictures don't do the car justice, it is absolutely amazing in person. I got to drive it to work yesterday because mine was getting a new ignition, it sounds really good and corners awesome.

i told your dad you should auto-x it, that would DOMINATE SM class!!!!!!

look at my homepage for more pics, it is really unique kneesan
also: a list of mods

GENIIs
poly mounts
paint & rims (duh)
new VLSD transmission
APEX'i WS Cat Back

Not a heavily modded car, but they make for a real nice combination.

edit: began project 12sec car today :sneaky:

I should trade cars with him, I'm about ready to kill my car. Sometimes when you turn the key there is nothing there, it is like the battery is completely dead, but it's not. I brought it in before, they said it was the ignition. They replaced that, now it is doing the same thing. I pressed the unlock button on my remote this morning, all the locks work without the key. Put the key in the ignition, turned it forward and it was dead, came back this afternoon and it started right up.

Maybe your max is trying to tell you to put your stock tail lights back in?

You need an ignition switch, did you have that replaced?
In the mean time, just hold a bag of ice on the ignition for a few minutes and it will start. The same happened to my car, and I gradually figured out it wont start when it is hot inside the car, just when its cool.

And the color is Cobalt Blue, its a Hyundai color
