Might actually be worth picking up the issue then. I never buy import mags because they never mention Maximas.

Is this it?

Found a preview pic on thier website. The caption for the pic is wrong, but it matches your description. The front looks nothing like a Max though.

Glad one got a proper feature. I actually have read a couple times where super street has recommended a max to people writing in asking opinion for cars to buy. Props to a great build.

all that power, and he's still using pathetic stock brakes (Brembo rotors are not much of an upgrade) and supension/chassis mods are pretty basic - just some eibachs/kybs and nothing else.

Props for the turbo setup (done by previous owner?), but other than that there are alot of things missing from that car. Goes to show that "tuner" mags just care about power and underhood bling....

Actually, it kind of annoys me that a car was setup in such a backwards manner - adding a ton of power without addressing how to CONTROL that power......

Well at least Chris is getting credit for his build in the mag. It has his name at the top of the pics. He submitted the pics to the mag before he sold the car.

Yea Maximaserg we both touched it...lol I got to ride in it once..woo hoo.

I also agree...

I guess the owner was going for a more 'sleeper' look...but props to him for doing his thing and getting some recognition for his work
