IF you are referring to Nathan being a judge. Reconsider it being "fixed". You know, at first. They were going to let the intake/stickerbombed 7th gen win because the judging criteria was mostly about CLEANLINESS. They had to get another couple of judges out to see my car and the 7th gen. From there, they decided I was the winner. Your buddies 5.5 gen was clean, I believe he got 3rd place. Aaron, you really think I didn't deserve 1st place? Did you see all the maxima's running?

Wheels are on, I'm actually happy with the fitment! The tires are the wrong size, need to go down a size smaller. The front's have no camber right now. But, once I have the right tire + camber + fender work...it will be perfect. My rear fitment is perfect, nothing to be done.

 

digging the wheels bro, ill take your old ones free of charge

 

Not bad, not bad at all. Congrats on the win bro, well deserved.

 

Damnnn! That looks sickk!!!

 

LOLOL but...i thought that offset wouldn't work on a 4th gen?

 

Why do you think I said not bad? Too much poke for me.

 

looks good, congrats

 

funny, i would of never considered sticker bombing as "cleanliness" lol

any pics of the other maxima's competing?

 

The only thing i don't like about the poke is the tire size, which is a nonfactor since mo wants to get a smaller series tire anyway.

 

FIIIIIXXXXXXXXX

FIIXXXXXXXXX!!!!!!!!!!

THE CONTEST WAS UH-FIXXXX

Taking things too seriously can get a but hurt meme image or two posted in here mang

I think my co-worker has some I'll make sure he post em up.

 

Any more info on this? How does he tune it? any threads about this?

 

Nah, I don't have any more pictures. What I mean by cleanliness is literally how dirty things are. For example, my suspension. I don't clean my coilovers! They look at that!

Right on man, new tires and camber will dial in this setup perfectly. I was just in a rush to get this setup on. It looks amazing even how I am set up now, I turn heads everywhere.


Sorry, I should have been more specific. My brother drives a Nissan Titan

 

Your car looks sick btw.

I thought they stopped selling the kits to put the LS throttle bodies on. Can you ask him if you can still buy them?

 

car is sooo completed! Congrats bro...looks freaking nice.!

 

Congrats on the win! Maxi is looking sick!

 

thanks



I was bored looking through my phone.



I miss having chrome in my headlights, want to do R34's soon.

 

R34's FTW. Upgrade your projectors while you're at it.

 

yea, r34's projectors def

 

that old headlight set up is pretty bad *** though.

 

Funny you should say you miss the chrome, because lately I've considered going black.

 

You know, I threw the idea around. I actually prefer the look if single projector, halogen highbeam.

My AE'd non retrofit?


It looks great, esp on a white car. I just miss chrome. Going with chrome bumpers instead of smoke, and chrome fogs.

Do it do it do it.

 

Turbo! Turbo! Turbo!!! That what it needs next! lol

 

me and viscousmo

 

I knew that Mazda looked familiar.

 

I'm really liking the overall vibe of your car, but then I'm partial to Stillen kits on black 4th gens So what tire size will you be stepping down to? Do you have any close ups of the poke?

What's the deal with the blue-looking corner and bumper lights on the top picture?

 

Thank you!

I will be stepping down to a 225/40 or 215/40 on these 9.5's. I still have some tread on these tires so I have a couple months to decide. The blue-ish/green-ish hue to my bumper lights is my painter being lazy and using Nissan KH3 paint to tint them . They are going to be replaced with clear diamond cut bumpers and R34 headlights up top. I would have ordered them this week but I ordered a trannsmission mount this week, 02 sensor's next week, and I forgot I have to pay for books. . As far as the poke goes, I just added the -3 camber up front but still have to do more fine adjusting this Sunday. I will take a picture for you. Keep in mind, the meaty 225/45 will exaggerate the poke more.

I was having a pretty off day today. It was my day off, stayed in most the day with it being all cloudy outside. I didn't drive my car until about an hour ago. It's funny how driving my maxima automatically improves my mood. From the exhaust, to the 5-speed, my rear wheel poke viewable from side view mirrors, and the looks I get; It's little things in life

 

Can I ask you for a couple shots of your tail light?I searched around and couldn't find the second.

 

225/40 and it should be decent, 215 if you want alot of stretch. But I think 225/40 is perfect and always easy to find cheap. Are your fenders pulled or rolled?

 

wow!! im not really a fan of the new mazda3's but yours in clean bro

 

**thats a speed3

mo, you car really came a long way. its sick i love what you did

 

i love everything you have going on right now. chrome up front will defiantly make things flow better with the new wheels but all that black still looks pretty nasty to me. either way man i love your ride

 

Dopest 4th gen of all time in my opinion... so clean and the drop with the negative offset wheels is sick. Like I said my favorite 4th gen

 

Sorry for the late reply, totally forgot about my thread TBH. I will Sunday evening.


225/40 is the perfect size, I just got 2 front tires mounted. Next 2 are going on next week. My fenders are rolled by RGZ here on the forums.

Thanks buddy! It really has.

I appreciate the positive feedback. Every time I get ready to buy the headlights. Something maintenance comes up and I'm pretty much wrapping it up modification wise on my car. Definitely going to do the R34's, probably not much else.

Thanks again! I'm only at +20 offset though. The small tires and - camber from the coilover has dissipated the poke quite a bit. I need to get alignment so my toe does not look off. I will take a pic of how it the wheels poke Sunday evening.

 

I purchased 225/40/18 Falken512's up front. Lowered the front roughly 3/4 an inch. Lowering rear and mounting 225/40 tomm.

Loving the new tailights bro! GJ

 

Mannn,by the time waiting for your reply I just purchased a set and installed it.And I use all incandescent bulbs but LED for reverse light just like u.Ever think about red smd led for the tail?

 

thanks!


sorry about that man, I was just lazy and unmotivated to take pics this last month. Umm, I'm not sure how it would look through the red lens. I don't know if it would make a difference. I have a white reverse LED too

 

Sitting at brake check getting an alignment .took 15 minutes to getmy car up the ramps ! I'm at -4.0 camber up front , that's without camber bolts ...just from my coilovers .

 

those tails are sick...dont remember seeing/paying attention to those before
