Some shots of my new ride - 02 Maxima...
wow, very impressed, looks fantastic, and isn't it such a crazy contradiction how much of a better ride it is on the TEINS being lower.
i am guessing you waxed? I did this holiday weekend too.

I actually did not wax it. Just gave it a quick wash. I'll give it a wax in the fall.

Small update...
The passenger rear tire started to rub with a full tank of gas and passengers in the car. Had to yank the 5mm spacer I had on. All good now. Just need to roll the fenders so I can put the spacer back on!

Nothing really new, just happened to snap a pic or two while I was at the park the other day, nothing fancy...


I had been sitting on this JL Stealthbox for a while for the 96. Finally got around to putting it in. I have always wanted one of these since I bought the car 10+ years ago. Looks so much better than just a regular sub box, and I can finally get the missing trunk space back! Just switched over my JL 10w3v2 and it sounds amazing. My old 6 channel Rockford amp is still rocking after all these years too!

Car looks simply amazing! One of my favorite Maximas as for sure. I see you rocking that old school RF amp. I fell in love with that same exact model when my friend pulled one out of storage last year. Great work on the car. I don't know how much better it can get.

Snapped a few pictures of the 4th gen after cleaning it up. Recently redid the whole front drivetrain/suspension with all new CV joints, control arms, ball joints, tie rod ends, bushings, end links and shocks/struts. Rides like a champ. Next item is to have the transmission rebuilt as I am getting the IPS bearing noises.
The tires on my 5th gen 17s were toast so I was riding on the stock SE 16s for a while but got tired of the look. Dug out my TE's from the attic and threw them on. I like the look. Will probably keep these on for a while as the tires are brand new. Doesn't look too bad for a car that is 17 years old with 198,000 miles.
