I'm Back!!!!!!
Well, I'm back. I finally picked up a new Maxima the other day and I can't quit grinning from ear to ear. I picked up a 2000 Charcoal SE Maxima. It's fully loaded with tan leather inerior, moonroof, heated seats and ........... 5 speed baby!!!!!! It has 91k on it and what feels like a brand new clutch. Also, had all ingnition coils replaced when it went through the dealerships inspection.
I'll post pics in a couple of days, just feeling kinda lazy. I'm still selling the 240sx if anyones interested.

Ok, I can't seem to stay out of my new ride, so here are so more pics I ran down to Lowes and took under a street light.
And I will definately take a look at that site. Thanks

Then again, according to economic theory, nothing is.

Yeah, I do love the 2k2-2k3 wheels and it also has a K&N filter.
Also, my next door neighbor helps me with all automotive tasks and he has the OBII (I think thats what it is called) hand held tool. I can use this right???? Sorry, on the 94 SE you just had to adjust the camshaft position.

Use this write-up, but use PlastX instead of water to remove the chrome:

Thanks for the write-up, I was planning on working on my headlights anyway, since they seem to be scuffed real bad and real foggy looking. I might give this a try to, if I get enough nerve to put my headlights in the oven.
