clean your dash!

 

its something i dont get though, whats so bad about FWD? sure if i had a choice i would have my 3rd gen RWD to fk around on turns and throw out the back end but otherwise who gives a fk Joeboost has a what, 450hp engine swapped turbo 3rd gen, and he kept it FWD? his car is epic and he gives high end cars a run for their money.

all i do is ignore the people that say "what, your 4dr FWD car pullin so many G's you need Sparco seats with harnesses?" and wait for the day i go with the 5spd swap and after a turbo, then we'll see whose pulling massive G's

ive got good turbo connections though, one of my cousins friend's idea of something to do is get a rusty running car from the junkyard and turbo it for something to do hes got a JDM R32 GTR though and that thing is sick, or was until he blew the engine with teh burnoutz. bish has to rebuild it himself now

 

yeah i will. im thinkin 35% maybe a lil darker cause the law up here is 50%, just to play it safe. im hoping ill get them for my birthday.

 

lol! yeah yeah... clean your 350z!

 

when i had my 97 i had 30% and they never messed with me(atleast about the tint)

 

good to know! ill probley end up goin to street scenes in blaine.

 

Nobody's going to be honest and point out the elephant in the room. Fine.

-Crappy spray-can paint-jobs that look rushed
-Polish your tail lights if your going to smoke them
-Tacky emblems all over dash
-Enough with the fancy artistic angles

= Rice


Only thing you've done tastefully is that Bose HU and 00vi.

 

then its a good thing i dont care what you think, isnt it?

 

IMO not rice sure theres a few things that could be touched up and +1 on removing the dash emblems, but rice= mods on a crap car that make the car look faster/high performance. theres no giant wing, unpainted body kit, halfazz fart cannon job, or giant vinyls on it

 

thank you sir. idk i actually like the emblems on the dash. if it makes me rice so be it. ill admit it though i hate the corners.

 

since its not the typical car to build up or its people that are jelous for doing something they wish they could do . ftw

 

its just that IMO FF is good for up to 500hp, and not many people want to exceed that for street cars so theres no need to hate on FF. and anyways its usually Supras, RX-7 and Skyline GTR that are hittin 800hp-1200hp

some idiots still hate 4dr cars even when theres crazy 4dr cars like WRX, Lancer Evo, and Skyline 4dr GTS-T. I give respect to JoeBoost to creating a beast FF 3rd gen, and Big E Dog for twin turboing his 2nd gen (but the Po Po found out becaues hes in Cali). Hes doing a RWD conversion on it now so that should be interesting

 

thats where my bigest confusion comes in most the badest street cars that people are driving these days are the 4 dr u refer to . gota give props to those that push our 4 dr cars to the limit. RWD maxima or i30 would b fun though

 

added a j30 auto-dimming mirror today along with a new alternator.

 

and its just 2 more doors its not like they add another 500lbs of weight or anything. Besides, its easier to get teh womenz in the back seat with rear doors

if i ever get the money, i would convert my 3rd gen to RWD and get a sh1tload of body work done to reduce the weight and make it a drift car, that would be like $30,000+ though lol. someone did a photoshop though of what a 2dr 3rd gen would look like and it looked SICK

 

coming along well.. except get rid of the smoke front side markers.. polish the tails.. drop it.. tint it.. and get some rims.. oh and the maxima on the dash is not needed.. just my opinion.. GL man

 

the womenz in the back seat is def a bonus. why get em angry with the first step

that would b sweet a RWD max or i30 . for that kinda paper just buy a 300z ready to run

 

yeah tails have been polished now. i was letting the clear set. i totally agree with you on the corners, they will be gone soon.

u mean like a j30? lol!

 

just a little update. i took care of those nasty smoked corners and did them the right way. i did the cefiro clone mod. after i saw aackshun do it i figured why not? lol. i also added a auto-dimming mirror from a j30. im still looking for a trim piece for it.

i will also be starting a 3.5 swap shortly so i may be using this as a build thread later on as well.

 

Tails look sick truck looks clean tell me why when I debadged my trunk it had a hole
Wish mine came out like yours.

 

well idk what hole your talking about but if its the key hole yes i shaved that as well.

 

Hey man, why you hatin', my buddy has "Maxima" emblems on his 4th gen dash too. Now he always remembers what kind of car he drives






But seriously. I dig the Pathfinder HU and the 00VI swap. Good job. Details on 3.5 swap. What are you using to tune? Are you keeping the stock 5MT? What are you using for exhaust?

 

Ill be tuneless for awhile till i can afford an e-manage with a nice wideband. so ill be running pig rich! lol but i will be keeping my stock 5-speed but with an even heftier clutch. (stage 1 exedy probably wont cut it) im just gonna swap my 3.0 exhaust manifolds onto the 3.5 so i can reuse my exhaust since its only a few months old. i also plan on getting rod bolts just to be safe but everything else will just be a plain jane 3.5... for now.

 

few pics from the lake today!

 

Nice looking car! Is your antenna broken?

I would say once winter is done get some nice rims with summer tires (so you can switch with these stockers during the snow time).

Looking forward to the 3.5 swap though, keep us updated on the progress.

 

yeah there is no antenna mast. lol. dont know where it went. ill end up shaving it off this summer if i get a paint job.

yeah rims are on my long list of things to do but theyre towards the end... Performance>Looks. lol.

I have pretty much everything to do my swap except the engine. im not working at the moment so it will be a couple months before i pick one up. i also want to replace my lower radiator support cause last time i had it on the lift it scared me. lol

 

Looks a lot better after you changed the corners up, but it would look even better with clear bumper lenses. Not a big fan of the tails to be honest but they're a whole lot better than the hideous altezzas some people like and if you like them that's all the matters anyway. Also the nissan and maxima emblems on the dash really need to go lol. Besides that I would say get a slight tint and if you want some cheap rims you could use '97 maxima se ones would look much better than those for not much money. Just some suggestions . Hope the 3.5 swap goes well, I would love to do that to my max one day.

 

haha thanks. its a work in progress.

 

 

Did some painting awhile ago with my friend. He got this 93 ve with somebody damage since he wrecked his 93 gxe. Well we swapped some parts which were mismatched. Well a whole day of body work, prep, and painting later all the paint matches! lol! we have now put on the slightly more attractive gxe wheels over the se wheels.

Before



After




Some new pics

 

Ive also come up with a time for the swap finally! I will be doing it the 2nd week in July!

 

Wow Cody's car doesnt look half bad

 

yeah it actually came out decent. lol

 

what are future mods that your planning on getting?...

 

well 1st is the 3.5, then eu, drop, tint, wheels, and sometime down this long road, paint.

 

what kind of gauges do you have on your a pillar, and where did you get them?

 

the gauges are just volts and a/f ratio. I got them from a member on here. which reminds me i need a new pillar. lol

 

car is coming along very nicely, im liking the cefiro look-a-like head light mod. good job bro

 

thanks brah

 

Good luck finding another a piller for our 4th gens. I guess they dont make them anymore, but you could buy a universal one.
