I guess it's about time I post pics of my "new" 4th gen..
 

As I'm sure most of you have noticed, I don't have my CG2 '96 GLE anymore. It had several motor problems (bad water pump, thermostat, possibly a bad headgasket and was misfiring from time to time), had a bad outer tire rod up front, and major rust on the passenger rear quarter panel so I sold it for $500 almost bone stock (left the Warpspeed y-pipe and Stillen muffler on there) and at 232K miles.

At the very end of March, I decided to get a new DD after putting a decent amount of miles on my 5.5 so I picked up this fully loaded DP0 '96 SE for $2500 (came out to $2K with the $500 from my other car). It was bone stock, had a bad leak in the flex section and the clear coat was practically gone on the spoiler but I didn't mind.

I took a lot of parts off my old '96, added a few and this is where it sits right now. I even took the plunge and nominated it for MOTM :noes: Anyway, here's basically the post from the nomination which has my mod list for now and some nice pics that I took from the other day.

Chris looks sick man I love it only thing I am not a fan of is your muffler, btw let me tint the red part in your tail lights!!

Not a big fan of the riveted wheel, the banner sticker, and the m4d tYt3 JDM plate but it looks good overall.

I'm not a fan of it either but it sounds good so I'll keep it.

Riveted wheels I got for $350 with good tires so I can't complain. They might be replaced come spring with brand new Moda MD6's, I'm just waiting on a PS job. The banner sticker has to stay there since I'm a co-leader. I'm getting a "better looking" one soon than won't be as big and will have a cleaner looking font. I likes my JDM plate, it's unique :squint: Has my year and everything.

are those rims 17's or 18's?

18's. The new rims will also be 18's that are wider, have a better offset and are lighter.

Yea I wanna paint my rims and get rid of the curb rash. That or get the track Z wheels.

sick!!!!!

Thanks. I appreciate it.

god damn!

Is that a good or bad god damn? :D

dat shyt needs wurk :o

Playin man, your car tuff as nails.

How could you..I <3 you Ceffy..:hide:

Thanks for el compliment :kiss:

Lets park our cars together so they can "get acquainted" :kiss:

Your place or mine? Then maybe the owners can "get acquainted"? :naughty:

Mine, plenty of purple drank on deck :chuckle:

Doesnt take much to make a 4h gen stand out...

Looks great! I was wondering what the story was behind your new ride. It's always nice to see another 95/96 car well done.

Very clean man congrats on the "newer" ride

Looks good :cool:

It does when you're on a budget lol.

Haha thanks. I figured I'd post the whole story since I knew at least one person would ask about it. '95-'96ers FTW.

Thank you.

I appreciate it.

looks good, but you need a better camera!!!! lol

Better camera? :scratch: I think my 12MP eBay camera does just fine lol. :o

not bad,

do you have any problems with your ledbulbs like rapid flashing when using your blinkers and what not?...

In the rear I do, but it can easily be solved with resistors. I'm just lazy and haven't gotten around to it.

There's no way to put LEDs in the front blinkers (I searched and found nothing), I tried and they wouldn't light up. For now all I have in there are those chrome bulbs that flash orange.

Where's the green? Looks black, almost blue in a couple of the shots.
Lovin the car. 95-96's look best IMO.

It was a cloudy day, you know how it is. If it was sunny you'd probably be able to see the green. Thanks for the compliment, I agree that '95-'96s look best.

You convinced me to keep my 96 front end (im still changing the rear tho lol). Looks good!

Yes! Keep the rear if you can find a set of David L's.

That thing looks fantastic. I vote for debadging of the trunk and removal of that windshield vinyl to give it a cleaner look, but that's just my opinion. You really went in a great direction with modding it. Keep it up.

Looks good Bro..

Thanks man. I'm not gonna completely debadge the trunk, but I will remove the Nissan emblem. A fully debadged '95-'96 trunk just doesn't look right to me. If I had a '97-'99 it would be a different story.

Thanks. :D

i kinda figured that that happens on the rear. i read on another forum about that being the problem. also instead of getting resistor to get led rely's, its cheap and it gives you the benefit of the led's (which is to use less power) and it fixes the fast blinking. they run for like $12 on ebay.

PM me a link to these relays..

why do the maximas look so good there in the states...our ones here in oz are a different shape except for the 3rd gen.....but 4th gen on...they are different shape and look like a different car all together.....nice 4th gen btw

its about time man.......looks good although i'm probably biased as mine is the same color.

Maximas there are probably I30/I35's but thanks for the love.

I wanted to wait until I got some good pics sorry! lol But thanks, DP0 FTMFW? :nod:

Awesome! I really like the grill on the 95/96. It just looks so good with the lip and all that goodness.

I couldn't agree more! Thanks bro.

Clean ride, and as stated cant tell its green or that lip isn't matched.. Sits nice on those rims
