went from a 6th gen to 5.5 gen

i totalled my car about 3 weeks ago and wanted another maxima just not a 6th gen anymore...



saw a 5.5 gen 6sp MT in houston so drove down there last week and picked this beauty up...

my bro (tookrzy4u192) also totalled his 5.5 gen so i took everything off of his car and put it on mine lol

anyways here are some pics










i know i need a drop, looking to get some coilovers. (Tein SS)

so far i have block off plate, intake, HID fogs (5k) HIDs (10k) front lip,
rewired fogs and relocated the knock sensor...

let me know what you think!

ummm well it kinda stayed the same for me, about all the same options and stuff but different tranny. so far i like driving the 5.5 gen in the city, but i like the 6th gen better for like a road trip
