Today Brett (menikmati) and I fuked with the shifter. It was his idea, I was just watching and laughing. We 1st used a hack saw.... but we didnt have 6hrs to burn. So he whipped out the dremel and in 10 minutes...boom.

It feels ABOUT the same, looks a lot better....here are pics haha



his engine bay *clean*



B-E-A youtiful day

 

What the hell is all over his dashboard?

 

yea i was wondering the same thing... stickers??

 

stickers.....

 

Haha i remember those days when i did that to mine. I got my inspiration from Arrafio.
Hey soulfly what exhaust do you and ur buddy have on ur maxes? On his it looks like a magnaflow but not quite sure. DOes it sound nice?

 

Somebody likes REEF...lol.
Looks nice...
Those are some huge pics.

 

97whtse - MINE is magnaflow...on the right. Just the muffler. He has WSP y, b pipes and a 3A racing muffler. His sounds like a beast. I love riding in it.

 

engine is clean but the interior isnt.

Get a different boot now so it doenst fall in the hole, or pull it up some.

How did you get the **** back on?

 

What is up with all the stickers on the dash?
That looks messed up.

Shifter looks all right, but it does not really accomplish anything.
The whole point of the sts is to shorten throws, not the shifter.

 

I will never understand people doing this... the shifter should be in good position relative to the steering wheel so you can reach it quickly, not a foot below the wheel.

 

max10to1.......silicone to secure the ****
burce - his car..not mine to each their own
weasel - he's got long arms but I understand what you mean

 

Since when do people drive with both hands on the steering wheel?
Sillicone? Did that actually work?

 

Not a bad idea if all you’re going for is the visuals, the stock stick is rather high. I wish they had mounted it farther back on the console. I just got a Pacesetter STS and I'd like to have it all the way down but I really don’t think I'd be able to reach it. Anybody else with an adjustable STS find the sweet spot for the stick height? I hear it’s around %50 shorter. I suppose the only way is to throw it on and try it out.

 

Dave......so far...yea

 

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha


VERY funny

 

Hey umm, in your sig...it says you believe in ONE thing. Not two.....

1) Doing it once
2) Doing it right

so....which ONE is it?

 

hahahaha looks fun

 

yea thats my ****. silicone isnt really working that great, when i think of a solution ill post. Stickers i put on the other day, prolly gonna take em off soon but they are some fine asses, so its debatable.

 

I have a Pacesetter all the way down and its fine for me. if ya want the shifter father back to you drive a Saturn SC2. Its really far back compared to a Max. And I hate it.

 

it is good to see some marietta boys, i live right off of sandy plains....we've probably seen each other, i remember seeing a white max that sounded pretty beastly

nothing better than cobb county roads and barrett parkway on a saturday night

needs 2.5" exhaust....

 

Cartman voice: "Damn hippies"

 

Hot chit........I think I saw you at QT on Sandy Plaines and Scufflegrit like...a few weeks ago. A lot of Marietta Maximas..check the SE forum

 

Yeah, I didn't think that sillicone would hold since it's still soft after it cures. Did you cut right at the little round ring like in the pic or did you cut even more? Did the know still screw on or did you just push it down til it stopped?

 

hah, just pushed it down - yea, he cut it at the nub in the middle of the shifter

 

Two words while using a Dremel...eye protection.

 

haha, yup......he learned that the hard way

 

what the hell??? you just cut that in your car??

 

welcome to the hacked stock **** club There must be tons of metal shavings all over the seats probably. Next time( well there won't be no next time) take a kitchen garbage bag and place it over the **** so you can catch the shavings.

Hey, it's a relatively free mod that just slickens the interior some more. Time to get a new **** dude.

 

yall dont see that rag below the shifter? There no shavings.......mostly dust

 

its doing it right the first time.
start with ESL

 

you see the direction where thee sparks are flying? I dont' think it's healthy to breathe in those particles when you're driving

 

well personally, you have to go with a STS, as the stock shifter is rediculously high, and actually it interefered with my 6 disc in dash changer, ****ing me off quite a bit. Now I have the Pacesetter installed, and it is almost all the way down, as for some reason, if it was any higher up, it would actually hit the plastic part that holds the shifter boot. It was a week or so to get used to it, but now I couldn't imagine going without it. Being about to shift with literally a flick of the wrist is awesome. Not tomention a through from 2nd to 5th (or vice-versa) is roughly 2", so yeah, very short throw.

Also, even in its lowest setting, its really not hard to reach at all, and I'm not a big guy, 5'11".

 

whoa you guys are crazy...I guess it's better for the look of things to do it like this.
