Well i finally finshed my project, guess what it is.......

Well for those of u who do not and do know what i am talking about look here: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....hlight=project


I went with the first 1st basically. Ill do it this way, if u guys can guess what the project is, ill post some pics or if no one gets it ill post it by the end of the day. Just some hints, this has never been done before(or on a maxima at least). This prject would work for all year maximas(5spds). I know, I know, what kind of hint is that ur asking, well too bad, i dont want to give it away.


EDIT:

Well guessing game is over here it is:



and just in case u cant tell



still got to do a little more finializing on a few things but is bascially done.

Please post anything u have to say.

Looks good. As long as the price is reasonable I think a lot of people would be interested. I suppose it would be good to be able to choose the color as well I like my stock shift ****, but that definitely looks good.

Weres 6th gear . If you decide to make a 6spd **** like that I would probably buy it . BTW, it really looks good! I always wanted to do that but I had no clue how too.

Making it a 6spd is as easy as $5

I might do a wirte up depending on if ppl are interested or not.

The shift **** looks good in the night and day pictures. Would you care to share how to do the project, or are you going to be selling them yourself? I'm very picky about shift ***** and yours looks good to me Wiring the shift **** up to a switch would be cool so that you can turn if off if need be (or wire it to turn on with black lights). Anyway I'm interested

wireing is done via spliceing into the ashtray light(12v) so it turns on when u turn on parking lights/headlights. I never really thoguht of making money off this, but hmm, u got me thinking. Im kinda busy with school and all tho, so i might just do a write up.ill see. Thanks for the comments

well it took a little while, not so much the actual process but gathering material and finding out what i could use. I did most of my brainstorming during my greek/roman methology class . But now that i know everything it would take about 45 min once u have all the materials gathered. Total cost of the whole thing is just about $65 which is worth it for me since it works, still looking for those bulb condoms tho, oh sorry i mean "bulb sleeves".
