LOL. I was talking with Delio today about contacting unorthodox to develop the S/C UDP.

What about the idea I told you about in the hotel parking lot at Maxus? Has something to do with the rear window? Remember?

We've got a LSD. Quaife makes one for us, and its the best (and most expensive) design. I should have mine in in about a week or so. Go to www.cattman.com for more info or www.quaifeamerica.com

any good engine builder should be able to port/polish the heads for better flow. I got this done when i was building my motor. My cost on port/polishing both heads was $600.

I think you need to look into getting the Skyline style guage cluster to work. I love the look of 3 guages across the top of the center vents.

Get those BIG brake kits to work with the factory rims and you'll make lots of cash.

How about........

Some addtional handling mods. Maybe some braces to further stiffen the chassis. I'm thinking kind of like the "monkey bars" Akimoto makes. Or maybe even some under body chassis braces maybe in between the control arms or somewhere upfront. I'm so used to my RSB now that I want to reduce roll even more. If possible lets get some custom struts/shocks made so when we slam our Max's really low we can maintain decent ride quality. I think shortened struts/shocks are the next big mod for Maxima's. While we're at it lets get a differential for a real world price ($1000+ yeah right!!!) Hey and lets not forget one-piece headlights and those damn side mirrors with blinkers. And while I'm dreaming lets get another body kit for the Max. Maybe this time all issues can be addressed. Big butt Sarona, kinda plaid out Stillen front lip. Just wishing.........

My vote would be for internal engine mods. We don't have any that I know of. Maybe something to change the compression ratio too?

Cheston. I would have to say the next thing to really open up the sc capability is to have someone develope a stand-alone engine management that would allow full or partial control of the ignition curves. We have partial control of the fuel w/ adj. regulators and safc but not like a stand along would give. Electromotive, The Link, etc.. all should have stuff for maximas but it seems having individual coil on plug makes it alot harder to get someting to work. This would really get a turbo engine going.

i dont think there would be enough buyers for developing internal engine mods. I already had custom applications done so if you were to get the same thing i did you could pick them up from where i got them from.

How about a new body kit that fits.. Or the gauge insert things like on the new mercedes kompressor.. the things that go inbetween the gauges and the glass.

ummmm, NO..

Integrated guages would be nice, I was thinking about putting 3 guages where my center vents are. I think that would be trick. I am still thinking about it though.
