If you're pissing people off then you're doing something right.

that's usually the case, I just love it when people make absurd statements without knowing a thing about what he was talking about..."it's going to be funny when he blows the engine of that grocery getter" how retarded is that
Yes there are def some bigtime haters out there because either A: their jealous B: their mad because I've busted up one of their kind or both lol.. But oh well its all in fun to me and people dont pay my bills so I could care less. As far as the driving goes I think I def have a 12sec car the dam thing just does not wanna hook up at all. I have the nitto drag radials and it just blows them off even with them heated up coming out of the waterbox so I dunno. I even upped my window switch to 5K in first gear still spun pretty bad and then I locked out first gear and it wasnt enough for me to get in the 12s even though I didnt hardly spin on just the motor alone. I just need some dam slicks and call it a day but then I may be needing some axels lol.. But hey I appreciate all the congrats and support from you guys thanks alot!
the only axles i heard about that are stronger for our cars are raxles. but they arent made anymore. i think our stock axles are strong enough. does jime have aftermarket axles? maybe he can help you out.
A friend of mine wants to sell me an almost complete nitrous kit for $350.Zekes.
Is that a good deal?
Says he has bottle and warmer and 35 shot size jets plus a few other things.
Was going to get the 75 or 100 shot jets. What do you think?
Will I have to do the 2 step cold air plugs and fuelpump if I do 75 shot?

seriously ? and i "raced" a little girl on a tricycle in the rain
are they 245 or 255 ?
what pressure do you run them at ?
did you do any suspension mods ? in your signature it looks like you lowered your car .
slicks will solve all your problems , you'll be able to spray out of the hole , but better axles would be a good idea .
They are 245's. I run them anywhere from 20psi up to 28psi just depending on the weather or the track I'm at. Yea I have suspension mods I have D2 Coilovers with endlinks and the car squats good just to much torque out of the hole. The car is slammed now it sits alot lower than my sig picture now. The coilovers are great though and the ride is good. I know slicks will def solve my problem, I'm just waiting on Raxles to perfect the stock axels and then make some stronger axles because I talked to a guy up there yesterday and thats what he said they were working on. Trust me I've looked into this but there are no options yet for these cars unless you just wanna run on slicks and breaks axels left and right lol..

They have Raxels for the 4th & 5th gen Maximas but none for the newer Maximas which will also fit the Altimas.

You mean a zex kit? If so is it a wet kit and what all does it come with? $350 is a good price depending how good of shape the kit is in and what all it includes.. If your gonna run the 75 or 100shot you will need a fuel pump and colder plugs. No matter what people say about the stock plugs handling a 75shot or even a 100shot dont listen to that chit chat because if anything at all misfires your motor is a done deal. 1 step colder plugs will do you just fine on the 75 & 100shot if you gap them down. Stock gap is .044 and I have my 1 steps gapped down to .035 and I have a Walbro 190 fuel pump so with those things you should be fine.
just curious why u gapped them down to .035 instead of the stock gap. how does that affect performance when not on nitrous? do you still get the small gain (2-3hp) as regular iridiu plugs or do one step colder plugs lose a very small amount of power?

When you run nitrous you always worry about detination. No matter what your always gonna have a little bit but you dont wanna do it in a big way because that would be a very bad thing for you and your motor. When you gap the plugs down it does take away a little performance N/A and even running one or two step colder plugs vs stock plugs take away a little performance. But gapping the plugs down is just a big precautionary step that I recommend taking. If your just wanting to run a 75shot .038 will be fine on the gap for your plugs but if you ever get ancy and wanna try the 100shot I would gap the plugs down even more just to be safe.
