In Progress Pics of New Wheels

kinda looks like those mexican trucks where the wheels stick out past the truck lol

Ughh....man, I hate when people say that...there's a big difference...those trucks are not lowered like I am and their ENTIRE wheel sticks out...they don't have camber, they just simply throw on wider wheels that poke out from the fender...difference, again, is that I cambered mine and lowered it.

Yeah I got no idea where that came from. I haven't seen any fish tanks in a strip club or anything.

Dude, no. No, no, no, no, no. Nobody in the world outside of your head has ever liked your setup. Your mom doesn't even like it. You need to be stopped.

you seriously signed up at NN to defend your car you don't really care if other people like or not? Are you on an internet wide crusade to make people like your failure of a car?

It's labor-related.
That extra $55-100 per hour adds up after a 8 hour install on most 'power adders.'

If you don't mind a little dirt, then wrench on it and save yourself an awful lot of money.

I tinkered with the VQ in my Maxima and pulled plenty of extra power out, and only had $2 or 2.5K invested. Admittedly, I wasn't running juice or boost, but even that SHOULDN'T be 5+ thousand.

You're tuning a widely available and tinkered with basic import car... not a supercar that requires a mastertech.

I thought so, I'd be scared shitless to touch anything other than a CAI or header

Exhaust is quite simple, long as fitment is good. cats/test pipes are b*tch to take off though, from the headers part.....might have to even break the bolts if they were never removed. Intake plenum spacers are easy to install on the car as well.

Nobody in the world thought you deserve to breathe any air, not even your mom, too bad nobody has stopped you yet.

Just wanted to get a couple things straight, if they still wanna talk sh*t, that's fine..ask me if I really give a fvck if they like it. I really don't. I just don't like when people make judgements on inaccurate info, and that's in regards to anything.

Im surprised living in CA you dont get pulled over for a complementary safety inspection DAILY by the cops.

Heres to you washing out the rear end, slamming into a curb and rolling 4 times. Learn the mechanics and physics behind chassis setup and do something right if you are going to "modify" a car

Near pasadena...i go through city tire in south gate...i might put on 245's, but i might just go with 235's, 10mm will still make a huge difference, i just think the 245's will rub the fender

yeah cos I realy don't know how to drive...you either can't drive or are careless if you curb your wheels.

ClubRSX - rice galore. Figures.

Turbo's give much more room for tuning as well. If my car wasn't so flashy with the wheels I wouldn't mind doing it.

How does this work? You choose which direction makes for a better fashion statement?
