I've recently joined Maxima.org due to the lact of 09 (7th gen) Maxima content on NICO. I have a mod list that I will be pursuing in perhaps a year, just to let the car run a bit stock. I don't know if my mod addiction can hold out until then >_< but I'll try. In the mean time, I'll probably still be active around here.

Tweaking with the A/c has basically mapped out my general Nissan tuning blueprint. The striking similarities has led me to know what I'm going to get:

400 Bullydog triple GT320 K&N intake100 SBD grounding kit180 Stillen UD pulley040 Stillen pulley belt

770 Stillen cat-back

270 Stillen lip spoiler180 Stillen roof wing210 Stillen rear wing430 Stillen side skirts

1520 AP racing BBK front2140 BBK rears0240 Eibach pro kit

2960 18x8.0 Volk CE28N1140 245/45 Michelin PS2

The only question is for wheels, should I go looks or performance? The three candidates ranked in weight (performance):

18x8.0 Volk CE28N (forged) = 14.7 lbs18x8.0 Advan Model T5 (cast) = 19.8 lbs19x8.0 Axis Elite (cast) = 26.5 lbs

Suprisingly... In terms of looks, the order's exactly opposite from weight: Axis -> Advan -> Volk.

Because we have had nobody with a newer Maxima with the initiative to be active. The .org is all Maxima whereas NICO is all Nissan/Infiniti. We were gaining traction with the 5th gen but since then most members with 6th-gen+ Maxima's have had little interest in utilizing the forum.

Suggestions are always welcome.

I say seize the opportunity Mike and strike while the iron is hot! Since you have the new Max, forge ahead and lead the way to making the Maxima forums outstanding!
