Well here's the obligatory "What's your Maxima getting for Christmas?" thread.

Personally, mine is getting an E46 bi-xenon retrofit and 97+ headlights





...let's hear it, folks

About 2000 miles worth of driving at least with Christmas Break alone, hopefully a good wash along with another coat or two of Klasse Sealant Glaze, and two coats of Liquid Soverean(sp?) wax. I just installed my short throw shifter too.

Oh yeah, and I also need to try to fix the used amp I just got...we'll see how that goes.

I already got it red/clears, and I have a short throw on the way. I'll probably throw some cash towards the suspension fund too.

My Mom asked me what I wanted, so I told her chrome gauge rings from Custom Maxima and Polarg amber bulbs so that my DTM turn signals are more noticeable

Wish I had the money for a y-pipe. It's a mod I've been wanting since I got the car...I've had the money for it many, many times...and every time I end up getting something else

I got an '87 SE 5MT for Christmas, as a project car and to give my '95 SE Auto a break.

Other than that, maybe a Viper 791xv, and a new auto tranny since this one is dying again.

maintenence
-fix my hesitation problem i've had since getting my car.
-fix my keyless entry. the person i bought my car from lost all of his keys so instead of going to the dealership to get new ones, he goes to a local key guy and gets generic ones, and instead of getting a new nissan keyless module he buys the cheapest kmart alarm he can find and ghetto rigs it into my car. so now my factory alarm goes off at random times, and my "aftermarket alarm" is a pos and just plain doesnt work.

but on a positive note, my bday is in feb. and for that i'll be getting a PC polisher (detailing business in the summer) some chrome gauge rings, reverse indiglows, sts, finish leds, blue underdash cold cathodes, and saving up for my summer exhaust fund.

That's the way I view it for me, actually. When you forget about the $600+ I'm spending for the bi-xenon projector retrofit

on that. I hopefully will get a y-pipe, but really any money that could be spent besides that will be saved for clutch and tranny in the spring.
