Does anyone has the link where it shows the installation of the Maxspeeds and struts? Thanks

 

well they aren't maxspeeds, but it's the same thing... http://www.innerbean.com/housecor/strut_install.html

i'm getting my h-techs and illuminas soon hopefully!! good luck on the install!

 

thanks this is what I need it...

 

max, let me know if I can help you out.

 

that would definitely be nice, but i'm not sure if i'm going to be in SAT when i install them...this summer is gonna be pretty busy for me...after returning home to TX (im in phoenix right now) on july 11, i'm going to move to a town outside new orleans, and i'm not really sure how big that window is going to be, so we'll see...also, since i'm here, i'm not making any more money, and i need a bit more before i can commit to purchase...i can afford the struts and about 3/4 of the springs right now, lol, but so many other things are tempting me right now (ie: STS, wheel spacers, etc.) that i think i'm gonna be up **** creek for the spring install at least until the end of summer...man that sucks though, because i was really hopin to have a fellow .orger help out on the install, and i haven't really heard of many .orgers in the New Orleans area...thanks for the offer anyway though!

 

i just found a REALLY good deal on the illuminas! i was looking over the site www.importcarpartsplus.com and saw that they were selling illuminas and noticed that they didn't have prices listed, so i e-mailed them and asked them..
e-mail convo:
Hello,
I am a member of maxima.org and i currently own a 2002 Maxima SE 6-speed. I was looking at your site and have a question: How much do you charge for a full set of Tokico Illumina struts and H&R springs for my maxima?

Tokico
00-02 #HB3188, #HB3189, (2)#HU2943 - $315 shipped

HR
#53060 - 00-03 (1.4in Front, 1.3in Rear) - Retail - $329 - Your
Price - $229 shipped

Now although the H&R price is the lowest i've seen, it's only by about $5, but the illuminas price is just insane! i was planning on paying $435 on ebay, and that was the lowest price i could find!!

 

It's possible they misread the Tokico ILLUMINA request and quoted you for Tokico HPs or Tokico Blues...let us know tho bc that is insane if it's true

 

i was thinking this as well, which is why i'm e-mailing them back to check on the price...but if it is the illuminas: i'm jumpin' on those things!

 

well ****...i just got the return e-mail again and he said he did quote me for the HPs....the illuminas are gonna run $475! so i'm thinkin i'm just gonna have to pay the $435 on ebay...so much for that good news....

 

Haha, c'mon you had to expect that.

 

yeah, i figured it was too good to be true, but when you finally hear it in truth, it kinda bums you out...i'll just have to wait a little longer to get them!

 

I got them for $439.00 from motorsport.. in ebay.... will get them next tuesday... so nothing is going to happen this weekend...
