Maxima Newb Here

[Indy_El]

Hello everyone. Posted this on 7th Gen, but I'm a lurker....New member here, moving to the Maxima from a Leased 2012 G37xS (black on black fully loaded) on 10/20/2012, totaled on 12/20/2012. It only had 2000 miles on it and I was only driving <25 MPH in stop/go rush hour traffic. Long story short loved the G, but couldn't pass up a price steal purchase on the '10Max, only 17k miles, Mystic Jade - Black interior (not a popular color, but not too many modded out there, so definitely unique with the mods coming).

Missing the nearly 40hp drop, but the CVT is pretty smooth and the get-up is enough.

Upcoming:

30/20/10 tint (front, rear, dual panel sunroof)
Wrap horrible faux wood trim interior with Red/Black Kevlar Carbon Fiber
Replace Shifter Knob
New Push Button Ignition
Nav Override
LED Running Lights and interior replace
Possibly quad vs dual Exhaust Tips (full exhaust down the road)
Sport Pedals
Calipers / Rotors - not sure of the Caliper color yet (mystic jade is a tough nut to crack for matching)
Strut-Sway bars

Future:

Cat-back
19" Wheels
Slight drop - not a big fan of slammed
HIDs


Maybe over the top planning:
Relocate push button to Console
Rear monitors and re-wire rear seat console to allow rear passengers to control DVD monitors rather than radio (this one is going to take a little bit of planning and layout to also include dual/independent head-phone input jacks)
Docking station in Glovebox for 10" Tablet (App integration to allow for engine monitoring)


No pics yet and don't wait up for the full set of future mods, this will be a long ongoing plan.
