new maxima owner need help

Sup fellas,

I just got a 95 se 5 speed, i love the car but i want to make it much much faster. I want to start with the intake, i see place racing, and that seems to be the only air intake that goes down into the fender. Am i wrong? And where can i buy this thing, do i have to go to the place racing website or can i get off nopi or something. Also what free mods are there for our cars, any help will be greatly appreciated

Does everyone remove there pin strips. I have a black SE with Tan leather. My strips are tan. Should i romove them? Does it make the car look sharper? And a heat gun is used to take the strip off, right?

nice list... but you forgot:

"delete" exhaust

rewire corner lights
rewire turnsignals
clear/red tails
"delete" speed limiter
fog lights always on
and more...

p.s. I like to say "delete" instead of remove 'cause its sound so "tuner" (just like "trick out")

Personally, I don't like pinstrips on most cars, but particularly black ones, and especially Maximas! I vote to lose them for a sharp ride. As for the best method, don't look at me! I just write the checks!
