New guy with a 95 max

Hey folks. I'm new to Nissan's, but I've been into cars my whole life. I recently picked up a 95 maxima for dirt cheap for a daily because my previous daily has gotten to the point where I don't like to drive it (wanna keep the miles low, and keep the car clean) so i decided it was time to get a new addition to the family.
I do have some plans for this car, nothing too major.
Going to lower it, put some 300zx wheels on, and OEM fogs for now.
Later on I'll probably switch to a 97+ rear at some point and get a wing, but that's not really high on my priority list. My other ride is waiting to get boosted so I'm trying to not pour money into the max.

Anyway, here it is:




Here is my other car:


Thanks for lookin!

Hahaha. Its more the Angles of the pics that makes them look good. They aren't to bad though. No holes or anything. A couple of the seams are coming undone but whatever.
The car was only 650 bucks. hahaha.
Thanks for the welcome, I am enjoying the car quite a bit.
I think If I had more money/room for another car, I'd pick up a 5spd and just go to town on it. Maybe later.

Lowering springs are on the way, working out a deal for fog lights, and I need to get some tires for the 300 wheels before I can put them on.
That will probably be it for a while.
I do wanna get a double din touch screen for it, and possibly some subs, but I need to make the trunk seal better before I put any electronics in it. hahaha
Thanks, It is actually pretty clean I must admit. I was shocked when I washed it for the first time. haha.

Thank you! The springs should hopefully be here this week, and I just bought a fog light off another member (I got a set from the jyard but one was too messed up) so those should be coming soon.
I see you are from seattle, you going to GoldenGardens this year?

I wasn't expecting such a warm welcome. Usually forums hate the new guys. hahaha.
I appreciate it.

Ksport springs. I thought I'd tempt fate and try them out on OEM shocks, the rear is fine since they are almost brand new, but the front bounces a bit.
I ordered some AGX's this morning. I've heard good things around the org about the combo.
I think this is the perfect daily height.

I was set to go with a ksport/stagg shs drop but ran into some coilovers that I couldnt turn down.

Keep us posted on the AGX's. I may go that route in the future.

Will do!
I'm not keeping my hopes too high, just so I'm not disappointed in case.

Thanks Fella's, but I'm not gonna buy new wheels anytime soon. Just got brand new tires, and I like the amount of sidewall I have, makes for a nice ride.
