Regrets About Maxima

I have a couple regrets with the Maxima that I bought. I regret that it doesnt have a leather interior and I regrret that I got 17's instead of 18's. My question is do any of you have regrets about your Maxima or mods youve done?




( I got my car without leather because it was a manual, in great condition, and had only 46,000 miles on it and it is a 96. As of now only has 49,000 on it, YEAH):sun:

I have no regrets, except for the price. I feel like I stole this car for the price I got it at.

My regrets are that I got a 99 instead of spending a bit more and getting a 2K or newer. I also wish I had a darker color (black or blue) instead of tan. And a 5 spd would be nice but I wouldn't trade my leather for it. I love the leather. Only interior to go with.

i got both

and i kinda regret my y pipe once in a while. it's a little on the obnoxiously loud side. i was driving hme from a party last night at around 4:00 and i drove past two cops sittin in a gas station talking and i saw them both start lookin my way when i drove by. i love the power i got from it. maybe i should get rid of the stillen muffler and get a 5th gen variable or something
and i kinds wish i got a 96 so i could have dual power seats instead of the slide passenger seat but i'd rather have obd 1.

everything has its trade offs; noise for speed, obd-1 instead of power seats(i consider this a trade off most people would probably say who cares about obd-1), ride comfort for a little drop in ride height(not in all cases but in most).

Your are missing something on the G35 sedan but it is nothing you whine about. On the one of tbe G35 forum some of the G owners were complaining that the new Max has better electronics in the car and a better Bose sound system(200 in the sedan 220 in coupe while Max gets 320watts?) Also another thing they disliked was the Max navi has better software softwares is on a cd but I think that will change for 2004 not sure tho. Just my .02 cents

What's so good about ODB-1?

My only regret is that my car is an Auto, but since my dad gave it to me, and the car I had before was 1990 dying Sentra, I'm definitely not complaining.

obd helps regulate your emissions and since the laws got more stirct in 96 the cars that are obd-2 are made to run cleaner and therefore affecting the cars overall performance. stock vs stock i'll bet you can't tell the difference but a modded obd-1'll get better gains from mods than an obd-2. go to the civic forums and ask kids why they try to swap in obd-1 ecu's and compatible heads. also, look at the valve cover on a 95 max and then a 96 and up. the 96+'s have four little sensors there that the 95 won't

only the 2k4 max has 320 watt system, and only cause it has a 2nd sub...but RWD is irreplaceable, as far as i'm concerned. oh well, maybe after i'm out of college

Leather + 5 Speed here. I really dont like the leather when cornering. My ass just slides. But other than that, prolly getting the muffler I got instead of just a nice tip.
