Did the smx's all come supercharged or is that added on?

They are not supercharged, but I'm sure it was an option. Vapors' wasn't supercharged, they just got it SC'd about 6 months ago.

Thanks man, we are almost done modding her. One more pulley, the brake kit, and then the retune. I think thats it for her. We will retire her and look at getting another car.

Our potential choices(pure sports car probably):

Supra
M coupe
NSX
S4(if we want another 4 door)
Viper(I know it is a domestic....)

and for a cheap car to mod....a mustang. There is a shop around here that twin turbos mustangs. They have a couple street legal doing 9's. Just by doing about 8 grand in mods.

Hey Vapors! Nothing much here...just waiting for my clutch kit to come, they are supposedly replacing it under warrantee. I re-did my grills, I cut away all the black plastic stuff behind the bumper and fiberglassed the grills on the back, looks really professional, IMHO. Hey, if you want the Stillen Big brake upgrade, tell me and I can get it for you at wholesale. Are you getting the two-piece rotors or the one piece?

Supposedly, they are coming out with a new kit for the maxima that is identical to the 4 piston ap kit except it uses sinple piece rotors. I may talk to curtis at ma rev. supposedly he will do custom willwood brakes for 1300 dollars while stillen quoted me 1799. My local tuner also has agreed to work on my car at their cost if we pledge to have them do our next project car. who knows. I will give curtis a call at max rev and see what he says. Our tuner says he could probably get it at 1500 or less. Let me know what you can do. Nice to hear from you.

Yeah, I can get the brake kit for $1400 and some change. I can't remember the exact price, but it was $1400~. It has the 4 piston APC calipers, SS brake lines, and 13" rotors. If you want them, I can get them for you. Just let me know. I'll call Stillen today and check for the exact price. I need to call them today anyways.

Ah Hem.....

The SMX never offered a Supercharger as an option, because the Supercharger did not exist for the Maxima when these were produced.

Sorry Vapors, my price with stillen is $1531 plus shipping. I'll have to talk to eric because he said that he found the same kit somewhere else for around $1400.
