My Max

Hey everybody. This is my maxima, I had recently bought it off my grandma for only $1000. Its Pretty much stock, besides red/clears and i just got limo tint all around not too long ago. I plan on putting on a pair of coilovers and some nice rims. Also convert to 5 speed.
Which coilovers seem to be the "best" for Maxima's? And when slamming these cars on their nuts, what else should I take into consideration?

Not bad. I'm just wondering, Is it cold outside when you took the pics or is the paint faded?

How many miles? I'm assuming not a lot since your grandma drove it unless she drives a lot.

Love GT-U's.., but they're going to cost twice as much as you paid for your car in the right size and offset ...but yeah i'd stray away from the gold, i haven't seen it look right on a beige car very often.. but congrats on the new car, i got my first maxima (91) from my grandma too..

Those wheels are nice, but probably EXPENSIVE...i see volk centercap...also be prepared to spend a crapload of money on the 5spd conversion. If you want 5spd, its much easier to just sell that one, make some profit, and buy a 5spd. Dont know if granny would like that tho....

Yeah, I was going to lower it, but I dont know what to use for coilovers. What is a good company to buy from? If I lower it, what else should I take into consideration, would I need anything else?

for Ksports, then save money for Raxles if you go real low..

If you don't drop it to the ground, Tein Basics have a softer ride than the ksports..but you won't want to go as low as you could with the ksports..
