RuSSiAnMax415- I couldnt tell if you were being sarcastic or not, so I'll just not answer. I dont think I've ever ran an Evo, but the specs are not far off.

Its just one big pissing contest!!! I like to participate at times, but my love for cars is much more mature than that. Being able to brag is just a bi-product/benefit harharhar. I see your point though, but I love performance and with that comes competition and comparison.

 

i was being 100% serious.....im just thinking....in the end....smogging, registering the car, and all that extra good stuff would be a pain in the ***....and no i didnt mean a modified evo....stock they run a low 13....with a couple mods in 12's.....do u think its worth....doing all that in a max, when ull never get what u payed or cant even pull the motor and sell it....i tried i-ming you on aim.....but ya, do you have a 3.5 on 3.0 timing?

 

Hmm. I'm on so I dont know why it didnt go through? I'm about to step away from the computer though.
A 4.5 gen isn't for everyone, I'm not saying it is. Its definitely worthwhile to me,personally, though as I dont think I could be as proud of a new car that I slapped a couple things onto just for the sake of being fast. Not to mention, the worth of the vehicle would constantly have me worried about wrecking it or doing anything to decrease the value.
The Maxima is proven, and I can replace whatever I want for a reasonable cost without being dependent on a dealership or whatever for various reasons.
I've seen the demand for these motors and cars on the org and if it ever came to trying to turn around and sell it, I think I could get decent money for what I've put into it. It is on 3.0 timing equipment unfortunately, yes.
I'd like to go to the effort to make it run 12's but I just dont care enough. I know if I tweaked on it a little more and put some drag radials I could make it happen but the reality of it is...a quartermile time means very little to someone who just wants a solid quick daily driver.

 

Pice Nics

 

what does your car run and what mods do you have?

 

I've never got a halfway decent run at the track as a 5 speed. Best run to date is a mid 14. I have a motor swap with the gutted intake manifold and full bolt ons.

 

Racing?? Boring.

 

as opposed to looking at wheels...now THATS exciting!

 

i see, you live in houston? do you know jay? he has a red 96 4th gen?

 

no i sure dont.

 

this thread is why I have a 10 second street car and a max for a dd. if u use a max for a dd, then u cant beat a 4th gen

 

this thread is why? dang you sure did build the car and get it to the track in a short amount of time

 

wtf is he trying to prove...this is a maxima forum not a ford forum.....only thing i can say about ford is they are an honest company...they circle the problem...

 

No offence, love maxs... But ask yourself what you'd rather have.. I'd take that evo in a heart beat.
However i'm here for the point we all SHOULD BE HERE.
I personally LOVE the 09 rims on your 4th gen. I'd do it and post pics up asap!

 

Half of the arguements being made are about performance over a 19" wheel/tire combo. Read in a little bit. I would do the 19's on my max because 1) It is slow 2) It is not going to get any faster because why would anyone even try 3) I have my go fast car to satisfy that itch. I love them both for what they are. One gets me from point a to point b and the other just goes short distances...

 

go gunmetal

 

hey can you make one like this ^^ but whit the SE-R rims plz

 

What size tires are you running

 

werdd

 

2year old thread bump. IF you notice, these arent on his car they are photoshopped on there

Tires are probably 235/35/19

 

And why do you have other peoples cars in your sig?

 

I searched, does anyone have any photos of their 4th gens with either the 18 or 19 inch 2009 and up maxima rims??
