Thanks for the comments.
The guy that sold it to me already had the stillen front + rear lips, paradox rear window spoiler, ventshade rainguards, stillen rear sway, and clear corners. Probably goign to put the red one in the rear back on.

Two different animals. 
H22 is a great motor for a 4cyl..but it'st just not as fast. It's a FUN AS HELL car to drive though....it has one of the most distinct vtec crossovers compared to all other hondas...it's a lot of fun. The VQ35 is just power EVERYWHERE. it's GREAT. I do miss the handling of the lude....but I'm sure that can be fixed on the max.

haha yeah I don't smoke..but I think they flow nice with the rear window spoiler and sometimes it's nice to have the windows open a crack when it's raining.
Future Plans:
I have 2005 G35 Sedan Sport Package 18" rims sitting in my garage...I dont' think anyone has done those yet....
They loook like the 2005 G35 Coupe 19" Rims....cept not staggered and 7.5" wide.
Probably going to do Tein SS suspension with the EDFC or just tokico illumina's with Tein H-tech springs...I dont' mind a stiffer ride...came from a prelude with tein SS and it felt pretty smooth.
Also going to do the double din kenwood touch screen with a full audio system soon...i gotta have my stereo. BLOSE is alright......heh
I didn't do much to the lude...just suspension and rims. Cold Air intake...full stereo. That's about it.

Any way, must be nice to have HLSD and 6 speed. Nice clean car and nice choice on the upgrade to the Maxima and welcome. Any immediate plans for improvements? Rims? Drop?

Anyway burnurass: I like the future plans. You should check out eclipse's stuff. They got some nice touch screen DVD navi units that are comprable if not better than the Kenwood. I know they are kindy pricey though.

Nice upgrade in wheels...I also went from an H22 to VQ35. It was an older Accord Coupe. I like my new ride much much better, but the payments stink. Oh well, it brings a smile to my face every and I mean every time I drive it and Ive had it for just over a year now. Your maxima looks pretty good so far, definately a nice place to start. Good luck with it.

You must be loving the torque. Here's a helpful site for finding mods for your new max. http://maxmods.dyndns.org
