09 Plans for your Maxima

What are your plans for the new year for your Maxima? For my 03 TE 6spd, I am going to do (Hopefully) Exhaust and Headers, most likely Cattmann. Trying to keep is simple, as my plans are to by a new house at the end of the year.

I plan to do all suspension and brake work. Calipers, rotors, brakes, shocks, and springs. I also plan to change all my lubricants to royal purple.

CAI, RSTB, FSTB, Drop it w/ new struts/shocks. Would like to get Exhaust, but honestly, I like the dual tips out of the back, and a cat-back is a bit on the pricey side for me to do all at once. Got a new baby at home at all.. maybe next year ;-)

Get all the maintenance done(fix my gas leak, fix my oil leak, get some new sensors maybe) and maybe get a drop/full exhaust system.

it's got 247K miles so there's not much in getting really unless i want to blow up the motor

Install dvd based nav system with one 4 channel amp and new speakers. New wires and sound deaden the doors. Having some serious trouble deciding on what deck to buy. GRRRRRR!
