Well, just got a 97 SE Maxima. I was just wanting some ideas from all you pros out there on what I should do to my new ride first. Just send me some please.....I would greatly appreciate it.

 

get rid of those ugly orange corner lenses and get clear corners

 

I'd say the first thing you should do is to go to www.custommaxima.com and use the pull down menu to select your year car, then browse through all the mods Greg has to offer. It's a great place, he's got good prices, good service, and has been very good to the .org in the past. Start there, use the search, and post when you can't find an answer. Good luck!

Peace

 

amen. also get rid of the orange in your tail lights. this can be done yourself without spending hardly any money. go to www.maximadriver.com and check out the How 2s

That is my next project. . .
(and an RSB, new bulbs, new battery, the list gets longer. . . )

 

You will get different replies fomr everyone but...

For engine mods:

Intake, Y-Pipe, Catback, ECU, & Pulley.

If you got $$, go S/C or NOS.

For handling:

FSTB, RSTB, RSB, Sprints, Rims, & Struts.

Cosmetic:

Front clear corners & rear red/white tail-lights.

If you have extra $$$, go for a body kit.

 

First things:

1. Clear front turn signals!!! Go to Ebay.com and search for them, they are legal and relatively cheap at like 30$-50$, easy to install (5-10 minutes and a screw driver) Make a night and day difference and get rid of those nasty orange turn signals.

2. Front Strut bar, reduces body roll, lets u take corners a lot faster and more stable with better steering response.

3. Rear Sway Bar, supposedly biggest bang for the buck suspension mod, 120$ at Custommaxima.com



Other things depend on what you want out of the car. If you want performance, speed, handling, etc.. go for an exhaust, cold air intake, y-pipe, lowering springs, struts.... if you want looks, go for Window tint, lowering springs, body kit, custom rims and tires.
