Yellow Maxima

I think the pics towards the top of this thread are from a PA Max (the completely yellow one w/ custom tails). I believe that a co-worker of mine spotted it in the area of my office, which is located in Horsham, PA off of Route 611, near Turnpike Exit 27. He told me that he spotted a yellow Maxima, but I didn't believe him. If it's from this area, then that's the one he spotted. Peace.

Okay, that's the third time this week I've heard that term, but still don't know what it means. What the hell are these airbag things? These can't be the SRS ones, some kind of Rice mod I'm sure, but what?

I think they are for the suspensions with air bladders like you see on trucks now a days.

No offense but this doesn't really help. What do they do? What are they good for? Why even bother? This is what I want to know. Plus I don't know what an air bladder is.

OK, It's very simple. Instead of struts, shocks or springs, trucks and buses have adopted these for a better ride and to haul heavier loads. For heavy vehicles, the ride is like night and day. I used to drive buses with them and with out.



As for cars, I don't know how good the ride is.

But, the point of putting them on a car is ride height. The ride height can be "instantly" adjusted up or down like 5" with the press of a switch.

Ride quality is horrible with bagged cars/trucks. I've been in plenty of bagged trucks and when you hop out your body is still bouncing They are purely for show purpose and one of the reasons Paul probably trucks that car to all the shows...

Thanks...

Thanks for the info guys. I hope never to come across such stupidity again. (In a "bagged" Maxima, not in your responses. Your responses were excellent, even including visual aids!) Thanks again.

That yellow max looks like an automatic, am I right? That is sweet, wonder how much the skyline conversion is with rear lights and trunk.

Agreed. A spoiler would add to the look. Overall looks tight though.
