Where To Buy 4DSC Decals?

hey guys,
First off, Mod is this is in the worng place please move it for me. I didnt know where it would be appropiate. I was just wondering if anyone knows a place to buy 4dsc decals. Also... I found some places that will take designs that you have made and made them a decal. Has anyone designed or want to design one? Where can i find quality windsheild decals. Would a front and rear window decal looked bad? Thanks,

Sean

ok guys, I love my 3rd gen too. I know I know, I'm a 4th gen'er at heart, but still...I don't see why so many 3rd gen'ers are against the rest of the maxima world. don't worry, i was joking. I wouldn't do that simply out of respect.

we are the only ones that came with them from the factory

Seeing them on a 4th gen is like seeing an APC sticker on a Civic.

As much as I love my 5.5 gen, my heart is still with my old '94 SE 5-speed.

Actually 4th gens are the lightest maximas. A bare bones 5-speed GXE weights in at 2885 pounds, while 3rd gens weight upwards of 3100, no mater what model.

I'll take my "boat" over my mom's 1994 VG auto anyday, better rear suspension or not. Regardless of the rear suspension, it feels much more lively to haul around than her '94. Those IRS don't seem to do much. Maybe 92-94 SE's have a better suspension, her car is a GXE.

VQ 5-speed > VG auto

I can live with my "crappy" suspension. Especially when there's no difference in handling. But hey, having IRS sure as hell is alot of fun to brag about.

5th gens started to get pretty big, but they only weight about 50-75 pounds more than 3rd gens. 6th gens are HUGE though.

Y'know, it's true that VE's have better top end (although you don't see plently of VE's running high 14s bone stock like 4th gens), but I honestly would compare apples and apples here.

The 1995-1999 VQ is more like the VG than the VE since it has no variable IM. The 2000-2001 VI VQ is a much better competitor for the VE.

Vq-k > ve > vq > vg

according to the 1989 nissan maxima sales book the only maximas marked as 4dsc were the se's with abs and stiffer suspension. the 3rd gen had 3 models at that time.
the gxe,the se and the 4dsc.

This i know, but from what we have seen, it looks like the actual "4dsc" model didnt really come out, but they were all labeled this way.

It helps to know what your talking about. The only 3rd gen that does not have a VI is the 92-94 SE Auto.

My Dad owned a 2000 SE 5spd, nothing to write home about. Especially when the VIAS breaks

Better anyway, they got in the way of my org stickers Now I just need to put them back on

Yes but 5th gens are relatively heavy and have heavy *** wheels, not 15s like 3rd gens. Put that VI on a 4th gen and it's different.

Calling all 92-94 SE autos: Does your car have the VE30DE? I didn't hallucinate anything, right?

Well you said "The only 3rd gen that does not have a VI is the 92-94 SE Auto." I always thought all 92-94 SE's had the VE30DE.

They do. The 92-94 SE's do have the VE30DE, the 92-94 SE auto's do not have a power valve though.

i guess its nissan trying to push the 5spd's sales and saying "oh nice going, you bought a VE auto, ha ha you dont get a power valve now"
