Ive joined the 5 speed club
Well, this morning i finally got rid of the old maxiam that gave me nothing but problems and bought a 98 SE 5 speed black/black ....mind you, i never drove 5 speed before, maybe once, and that shouldn't count cuz i couldnt get it outta first. Mastered that bish after about 15 minutes of driving, no stalling nothin, inclines and all, al li can say is how did i ever live with an auto, i have no idea, lol. 5 speeds FTW!!!
Im parting out my old car, i'll put a thread link here.
I'll post pics up inna minute too, gimmie some time, i wanan go back out and drive, now to get a nice exhaust for the bish :-D...

nicely done,i got the same one, but 99 and leather
$6500...the thing is, i have like 194000kms about 120000 miles(all highway...montreal toronto every week end for one yr). It's amazing and you'll love the 5 spd, just remove the air snorkel(cold air intake look a like) for the intake box for the time being that u have no other intake, it gives it a little snarl when u are in the torque band...

Looks like black/grey cloth to me 
That is a very nice car to start with, way ahead of your old one.
*edit* no sunroof either? does it have Bose? ABS?
Lightweight SE FTW Congrats on your new ride, hope you have better luck.

Mileage is kinda high, it's at 190k ...but hey, i paid 3 g's....runs fine, no problems, it's clean, and the transmission is strong, no problems....plus i plan on dropping a vq35 in within the next 2 months, wish i could do it in time for nissan day but i guess you cant have your cake and eat it too right. 3 pedals FTW ...No ABS although i was thinking if i should swap out the abs from my old car in? how hard would this be people ? ...also no sunroof, once again im outta luck no sunroof but hey sue me...and yea, it is grey cloth sorry...thanks everybody though...
On a side note, OH MY GOSH...just came from a day of driving the beast and i wondered how the hell did i ever like my old car in the first place. i get up to 100 like it's nothing ( I was just testing it out .. ) ...im in love..no more auto's for the rest of my life.

I was just curious on the options, not nitpicking. Be good to her.

But you can get a little closer with some synthetic tranny fluid. I just put some Amsoil in mine, and I'm kind of disappointed, it's still notchy when warmed up, but when cold it shifts smooth as butter. I dunno... I kind of don't want to try redline MT90 as it's supposed to accelerate synchro wear. Is the car still on its first tranny?

get up to 100 like nothing? let's hope you don't get the same luck with this max that you had with your last one. I'll be by tomorrow to take parts. And remember you drive a MAXIMA, not a FERRARI, dont race everything that moves cause your car's a little faster.
suprisingly, i never got pulled over in south plainfield or plainfield....it's crazy...my local cops see that PBA sticker for their towns on the window and they Bax da fk off ;-)
