Hmmmm...one of the first Maximas in the world that was fast-bagged
Full custom tweed interior
Shaved emblems/trunk lock
Polished lower ties
Umm, and the fact it has gotten me 9 trophies

youve obviously made your car for show, otherwise you wouldnt have those heavy *** wheels holding you back, and all this custom stereo, so it is pointless for you to brag about speed and running people when you car wont keep up because of its pure design function.

Then a small "tub" that holds the amps on the back side of the seat, never mind that it's got 9 subs what am i gonna do with that, my car is an sq car not a monkey car...If you wanna talk **** dont' talk **** about somthing that i do for a hobby. O and the boat load of amps??? come on there is 4 double stacked. My "heavy *** wheels" are not as heavy as you think just cuz there 19"s. So what if i lose .00002 in the quarter that I'll only run once anyway...What ever happend to people caring about ride looks handling and all for every day driving...Everybody on this forum seems over dun with the quarter and they dont' even do it. The custom stereo was designed to be light and use empty space so the car would still be usable unlike the stinger one that can't be used at all, mine gained 50lbs total with all the stereo stuff. I think to many people assume way to much, the car was thought out in a lot of ways, that may not be so obvious.

Having something custom requires doing something unique, not something that was done multiple times before. If you think you can really compete, please come to NOPI Nationals in September and shut us all up in person!! Or if you are scared then just say you are scared!!!!

If you look at the title of the post it's what makes your car unique, my stereo from what I’ve seen on here is the best on here...Show me one better? And if you read I said no it’s not the best in general Steve brown would tear me apart. (Along with other) So again I will say that from what I have seen that my stereo is the best in a maxima that I have seen on here.
If you notice I compete in Iasca I never said hey I'm winning major events for this and that...You can try to make up the worlds most stupidest **** if you want but you have yet to make any point. By the way nice **** you got
that’s real special. Flames??? Come on you hick it’s a maxima. And never mind the custom a piller gauge pod you got or the tape that you think is real aluminum that’s not something you can get anywhere for 5 bucks. 6th place is not great but it's also not an easy class, I'm not in the novice class...By the way who is your boy? But I have won the state champ the last two years the national points championship the last two years and so fourth, not to bad. If it is so easy come to finals with what ever you want since you can take 5th with no amps and compete against me! Bring your P.A. and compete!Those cloth seats are factory can't you come up with a better point., did I say the whole car was custom, no but quite a lot is. I’m sorry I don’t go by prebuilt body kits and seats, bad looking gauge pods and so on, I prefer custom more better fit better looking things, and that takes time to build..And not that it matters much but most of the install is being redone as I type, I'll be sure to post pics after finals hopefully it gets your approval cuz that’s all I care about.
Especially since you’ve done so much.
and this install will have something that has not been done yet. This forum seems to be the only place that don't react with pleasing comments. I'll admit the pics suck and most are missing but damn. I can say I’ve been in 3 mags what can you say you’ve been in? Ghetto monthy?!? Everything at this point has been done with car stereo from tubing out battery’s in the engine bay to massive rebuilt everything, the key is to make a clean look that works with the car...That is what mine does, sound great, look clean, very stealth and usable, and on the reg I get scores of 440-450 out of 502 not too bad. I’m sorry I just don’t have a box that takes up most of my trunk and large tubs that allow me to use nothing, if that’s what I wanted I would have bought a supra ran 30psi and rebuilt it all, I bought the max to add to what it already had. Your real tuff and smart across the net, you really scare me big man. What could be unique that has not been done to a car or truck at this point? Not much, but let me know, and I'll do it cuz this way I can have your approval cuz that’s all that matters like I said.
What ever happend to just looking at cars and going hey not bad? It seems like no matter who anywhere, the most you do to somthing if sombody else don't have it, they will complain.

I'm not flaming here, but I think the only reason they're ******* you is the last comment you originally made about having the most modified Maxima.

The kicks where kept plain for the same reason as most of the car is, to keep it stealth, it would be just as easy to make them flashy and paint them per what seems to be done the most now. It’s still all glass and mdf like most installs, just as easy to paint as it would be to wrap it in vinyl…It’s not like I run q forms.

Man you need to understand that the only reason that I started posting on this thread was because of the fact that you posted about having the biggest and the baddest maxima that there is, which I personally find to be BS! Your big headed post got it started and I was just having a little fun with it, so don't get your feelings hurt. I will give you props-HONESTLY-your max is fat. I have always liked it, but I just don't like people with big heads. I never post much here on the org, especially when it comes to controversary. I usually just sit back and read the post that are here and if someone needs help with something that I could help with then I offer my assistance, otherwise I chill. So to end this nonsense, sorry if I have offended you in any way. Good luck competeing and happy modding!!
ps I don't know what pics you looked at of my car, but I haven't had the flames on it for almost a year now!! Check out this link for current pics: http://members.cardomain.com/nvmymax2

I didn't say they actually worked now did I...I just said I was the first to have them.
My max is actually unique because it's the first to have silver colored stock gxe hubcaps in the back, and red-brown hubs on the front wheels....yep, that rust sure brings out the color in my max. I'd like some nice rims though...

You guys don't know what he meant by unique. Here's the deal, I have an 87 maxima, the trunk sensor is borken so the car always thinks a door is open. The alarm light should blink until the car is locked and then stay on for 30 seconds. Since the trunk sensor is broken the alarm won't activate, and the alarm light will just blink forever. Now this light won't drain my battery, however since the car thinks a door is open it leaves the lights on the doors on, which are red, now i could just take the bulbs out, but it looks very cool with red lights illuminating the interior, so i left them in. so what i have to do is take the fuse out that controls the deck, interior lights and alarm when i get in and out of the car, takes me 2 seconds each time, its not a pain at all. Now if anyone else wants to talk unique lets hear it.
