HI I'm a newb! Just got my girlfriend a 03 maxima. Infact she is driving it home as we speak. I can't wait to take if for a spin. I don't have actual pics, so here is the autotrader ad. I'll be searching around for mods and such on here,and we'll be putting in a system just as soon as we can. So I can't wait to go through some threads! I'm not new with forums, I am on a couple atv fourms, I have a 06 raptor 700 with a few things done. Oh and my ride is a 04 F150 4x4. Link to car is below, we paid 11 for it, has an intake,exh,rims and suspension already. should handle nicely.

Hi, and thank you! The link is down cuz the dude removed it since it sold. I'm meeting up with her at lunch and I'll try to get some pics to post up. One thing I noticed is.The struts are way to stiff, I am going to try to adjust them tonight and see if it stops riding like a lead sled, otherwise the stockers are going back on and these are going up for sale. I got a few quotes to install the stockers and that's like 300-500$ depending on the shop.

And yeah, I feel ya on the MOD bugs, my old lady got bit just like me! She already wants a full system and a billet grill. Hope santa is good to her =)

Quick question, and no I didn't search. lol, I will right after I post this message. I know for a fact he put adjustable struts on, but when adjusting do you turn "RIGHT" to make them stiffer? and left for looser? I know he sent the tool with to do it...Thanks, and yes, now i will go search..

OK, after doing a little bit of search, it may not be a special tool to adjust them, just a screw driver? so I'll check it ou on lunch and give ya's an update.

It has Illuminas with Tein s-tech springs.

So yeah, i'll try to adjust them and if that doesn't work these will be going up for sale.
