Hey guys, I don't post much here. I am usually just lurking around, abusing the search function.

I doubt any of you remember but I used to own a Black 92 Maxima (Blaxima) with some fiberglass work done on the interior. Well I smashed that one up about a month ago but I got my stereo and all the fiberglass stuff out.

I managed to find another 92 within a week in better condition than my old one. Anyways, here's what I spent my weekend doing, I think I am going to redo the whole body on this car so I'll get around to painting it all later.


The tail lights dont line up perfectly but I think its impossible to line up both the tail lights and the bottom of the bumper to the trunk lid


inner trunk lid details, I used expanding foam on the trunk lid but it still rattles. My amps and fiberglass amp rack are still to go on the trunk lid sometime this week

 

what did you use as a filler?

 

got more pics/links of your old car and this new one?

nice work though, and good idea with the foam.

 

8ride what u mean by the taillights dont line up. i think you did a good job. I dont if id be venturous enough to try it but if you a post a how to/write up with more pics let us know!

 

Nice to see more Canadian 3rd gen's on the site. But if you could more pics, please!! And what did you fill the center with: welded metal? fiberglass? what?

 

I welded in a piece of sheet metal that I cut using the old light as a guy, I used a large piece of ABS tubing as a roller to get the light curve in the piece. Then I welded in some metal filler pieces on the sides. I think my buddy has a couple contruction pics of it on his camera, which I can post when I get them.

Here are some random pictures of my cars.









This sub enclosure is for sale if anyone wants it, it holds 2 10" subs and has a total airspace of ABOUT 1.75 cubic feet, fits with no modification into any 3rd gen Maxima I believe

 

Random Stereo Pictures

 

To get the taillight and bumper both to lign up you have to do it in 2 or 3 pieces. That is how Jasons is done and a couple of others too.

Shavedmax doesnt count because his is totally custom anyway lol.

 

hey great job on the back of the car

 

Can you send me some more pics of the sub enclosure or post some more. I might be interested.

 

i agree....more canadian 3rd gens are needed here.
the trunk looks great and i'm impressed with your stereo work aswell
keep up the good work!

 

i did mine in two pieces, i made a frame first so that i knew where the edges would be then welded the metal on top. from what i see it looks good.

it's getting a little too up here so lets get more project pics up!

 

Sorry about not posting pics yet, I am still trying to find all the contruction pics and pics of the box from different angles. If you still want the box, I'll let it go for $100 USD and you pay shipping. I put about 50 hours into making it and about $150 worth of supplies. I just didn't like the way it sounded, I wanted louder so I built a gigantic ported box. It's in primer right now and with less than 4 hours of bodywork it could be ready for paint (its about 90% perfectly smooth)

 

Looking for some info on shaving the back door handles,front corners, and trunk lid also removing the side molding to give a cleaner look any help?

 

start with a welder and some sheetmetal. if you havent welded before, consider having someone else do it or practicing on scraps before dooing it. word of advice, dont shave the back dooe handles if you arent going to do the front. that just looks butt

 

I know someone who has some projects.

 

who?

 

can you post more pics of the digital climate control?

Juan, what else can you possiably do to your car?

 

im not telling until it is done, but i will say i mentioned it before

 

nice trunk.

 

he just painted the trim piece white

 

$5 and Ill tell all

 

such a punk, dont think i wont tell people about your manual to auto conversion you are planning

 

oops too late
