Hi everyone. I just joined the forum as I just recently picked up a nice Maxima.

I guess a little about me and my history of cars.

I've always been into cars for as long as I was able to drive. I had a few used cars when I was young but my first Brand New car was a 2000 Acura Integra GS-R. The first car I really started modifying. I had TONS of mods. The mods would be too long to list but the boosted project had the car pushing over 500wHP in a 2500lbs car. You can imagine how scary fast it was.






(Pics before it was Boosted)



Then I went onto a Brand New 2005 BMW E46 ///M3 in Alpine White and fell in love with BMW ///M cars. They're absolutely fantastic.


Mods:

- K&N 63 Air Charger Intake
- StreamLine Engineering Filter
- ECIS Custom Fiberglass Heat Shield
- Supersprint Race Exhaust
- Eibach Pro-Kits, Bilstein Shock
- UmNitza Predator ICE LED Angel Eyes
- Prolumen D2S 6000K HID headlights with auto-leveling
- Prolumen 6000K HID Fog Lights
- Shadow Black Kidney Grills
- Shadow Black Side Gills
- Front & Rear BMW Carbon Fiber Roundels
- BMW Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Roundel
- Smoked Corner Lenses
- Alpine White Front Bumper Reflectors
- Alpine White Key Hole Cover
- ACS Fucy Carbon Fiber Lip
- ///M Black Out Kit

After 5-6 years of ownership, I decided to sell it and get something bigger for the family to be. I went with the M3's bigger brother, the E60 ///M5 with that glorious V10.

I added some tasteful mods after the purchase. ~560HP+, 8,600rpm Redline, faster shifts, straight pipes to really hear that V10 scream, etc.

Mods:

- RPI Ram Air Scoops
- RPI Intake Block Plates
- RPI ST Pulley Kit
- BMC Racing Air Filters
- Straight Pipe Exhaust w/ 3.5" Tips
- Meisterschaft SS Section 1
- ESS SMG Tune
- EVOLVE Alpha-N Tune
- Ice Lite H8 Angel Eyes
- LCI EURO Tail Lights
- Bruce Miranda V6.1 Cables
- License Plate LED Lights
- Blacked Out Front/Side Grills
- Hamann Carbon Fiber Lip
- DCTMS ///M Stitched CF Sports Steering Wheel























Went through a 1998 Audi A4, then a 2002 Audi A4 1.8t Manual.

Anyways, I sold everything (but the wife's Mercedes) and just picked up an AWESOME 1995 Nissan Maxima GLE in Granite Pearl Metallic with ONLY 46k Original Miles. Was looking for something reliable, easy on gas and easy to drive. I've always loved Maxima's in general and even more so the 4th Gen. When I ran into this car, I couldn't pass it up.

I upgraded a few quick things like clear bumper lenses, rear taillights, K&N filter, fluid flushes, Piano Black Interior Trims, 17" Inch OEM Maxima Alloys, etc.
























This is a very good daily driver.

In a few months I'm planning to pick up a GT-R.




Anyways, sorry for the long post. I could go on and on about cars.

A video of the M5 against a friend's Audi B5 S4 Bi-Turbo with some mods. Makes me miss that V10.

Watch in HD.

That 4th gen looks pristine from those pictures. You've had quite an impressive line up of cars, man. Keep us updated on that R35.

dam the 96 clears, they look aight with no spoiler but the orange signal on the 96 really kills it, but clears with spoiler is cool, without spoiler on 96 just looks a bit naked imo (I need to buy a spoiler for my white pearl 96 soon), but on 97+ no spoilers are fineee, clears make the car look a bit more "updated" if ya say.

Jeesus christ what an extensive collection. Hard to believe you went from the holy grails in the Euro world to a silly little 4th gen compared to all of them lol. Although your 4th gen looks awesome!

First off, that is an outstanding collection of past cars. The M3 was gorgeous, I loved the color combo, and same with the integra.

I was confused at first how you could have only a 4th gen maxima as your only car after having such a insane list of prior cars, but it all made sense when you said you're looking to get a GTR haha.
