Well. I bought my first maxima. It's a 96 with a 5 speed. Picked it up today. Love it so far. I assume it's an SE. There isn't any badging on the back to indicate it. Cloth interior and white faced gauges. Not sure if that helps.
This car is replacing my daily that got totaled. 86 Dodge Omni GLHS.
I had to get something that was fun to drive but 4 door and reliable. So the maxima does that :-)
It needs a few things. Like struts. They're shot. And the shifter seems real sloppy. Is there a fix or something for the shifter?

Sweet. Where could I find one? I assume a local parts store might have one.
Ya I like the car. More than I figured I would. I'll post up some pix.

Here's a good one. It's got that 4x4 stance right now lol. Plan on fixing that soon.

Good deal. I've got a black 99 SE with gray cloth interior and the white face gauges.

I've said many times that Tulsa has some good used Nissan Infiniti vehicles that I see on Craig's list.

You're a just couple hours away from Warpspeed Performance over in NWA.

One of the mods that many of us have made is a Warpspeed y-pipe. I installed one last spring.

Well an update since I bought it.
I lowered it and replaced the struts. KYB GR2 all around with an eibach pro kit. Cleaned it up quite a bit and installed a decent radio. Slapped some clear bumper lenses on it too.
