If anything, boost should be last, after the rest of the car is up to par.

I would spend less time worrying about FI maxima members brakes and more time worrying about people who have powerful motors in older muscle cars and such and dont tighten up the steering/suspension/brakes, or people putting lifts and huge tires on their trucks and leaving stock brakes, as those cars are much more dangerous.
edit: but yeah, it would be nice to see boosted guys using Jeff's brackets, for $40 its a excellent deal/setup IMHO. I dont think there is a better price/performance upgrade avaliable for these cars.

Dixit and I still talk even though he has moved on from maximas, granted I'm much busier than before but still.

Either way, back to my point.
GA still has the largest concentration of phat Maximas. Completeness is in the eye of the owner anyway. From the cars I've seen on the org, they're pretty damn complete to me.

D@mn I miss Atlanta. I used to live in Nelly Farms on Spalding near Holcomb. But that was before I knew about any of this. How is the traffic? LOL
There really aren't many complete Maximas period. Complete is complete at a different point for everyone but the threshold into completeness is fairly close for all people.

Who are you and Larrio talking about?
I don't know any of the boosted GA folks running stock wheels/tires or suspension.
As far as brakes go... what do you call stock? calipers? pads? rotor size?
And on a different discussion, larger piston calipers + stock master cylinder = mushy pedal.. no thanks.
Thanks deez

NYC definately has the biggest concentration of Maximas.. but thats about it.. most of them are stock or riced out.
But I have been noticing most of the boosted and sweetest Maximas have been coming out of the ATL area
