Hey whatz up peeps!!! I just copped my 2nd max. I went from buying a 89 in 95 to just getting a 2K2 (140K) recently. This site has been so much help in general but now i'm trying to get in with the crew. I can't wait to hit a meet. I'm mostly around the PG area. I am still working on this baby to get her right so if you have any insight please let me know. See yall on the streets.

Noob ----

I bought my 6th Gen 2008 New in October 2007. I have the SL with nothing on it but Tints and some 18's that I haven't cleaned since I put them on ... I know, I've been neglecting it a bit. I had a 2004 G35 so my time was in that car but its gone now cause I'm 6'4 and it was killing me....The Max is more my size !!! Looking forward to keeping up with wutevers new with the Max and trying to figure out why my Gas Mileage is sum ISHT lately !!!!

Just bein funny bout Passport BMW...I luv my Max

But...when I first got it the DTE would always teeter between 380-415 when I filled the tank....and I reset the mileage each time I fill up and was getting about 300-370 a tank...but I always fill up before hitting Empty

Now I"m only getting the DTE to say like the low 300's when I fill up and after resetting the mileage on each tank I'm getting 270 or less....thats worse than my G35 and I'm using Premium gas like I should be.

Question Nissan and of course they recommended I pay for a Fuel System Cleaning Service or some junk for like $180....So I went to Auto Zone and bought an Injection Cleaner which is still working its way through the tank I have in there now so.......I dunno I'm lost.

Hey everybody my name is Pat I'm new to the area but not to the Org. Lived in PA when I joined the Org (where I went to college). I now live in Baltimore county, MD (Owings Mills to be exact). I'm a IT contractor for the government working for Centers for Medicare/Medicaid Services headquarters in Baltimore.
Started with the org in 04 when I got my 89' 3rd gen GXE. That car was my "audio car". Went through several systems before selling it had full Rainbow audio comps, Arc amps, and Image dynamics Subs.
Then came back to the org a year later this April when I got my 06 SE. The car was great but found out it had been in a serious accident that the dealer "forgot" to mention.
Now I'm driving a 3 week old 2009 S. I absolutely love it the maxima finally went back to a true 4 door sports car.

Hello All!
The names David, and every one calls me Crazy. I Recently got my 92 maxi as an early b-day present for myself. I'll be 22 on the 25th . Uh I Live in the Maiden, NC area closer to Denver NC, but zip says I'm in Maiden.

None the less, I've been on this site since a few days ago, and have posted some, not a lot, Most of the stuff I see on here is gibberish. I'm more of a Honda Guy, but seeing as how I have yet to get my license. I'm stuck with a 4-door maxi.

I'm going to make the best of it tho, Have to make a few minor adjustments to make the car picture perfect.

But Being a N00b myself, I would like to extend my welcome to anyone who wants it.

And If you live nearby, Look me up Cahill is that last name in case y'all haven't figured it out yet!.

And I really don't know what else to say

Have a good day
Crazy
