This is what the Maxima looked before I got it. Actually, this car was my younger brother's before I had it. I wrecked my 95 Explorer on the last day of class while driving to Richmond. I must have hit an ice patch on the I-75. Yeah, it really sucked. It was snowing and it happened at night. What a day to end classes, huh. Anyways, All State wanted my truck to be fixed, but Autobody America, said it was totaled. So, I got a checked to buy me a new car. Yeah right!!!





Another shot of my 2000 Maxima from the side. You can see a little more light on it. Notice the wheels and the height of the car. Now take a look at those front and rear side markers. It's nothing special. Before, my brother had some 18's on the Maxima. They were MK12s which looked really tight.





You see any big difference? Well, I will tell you, I took the wheels from a 2003 Maxima, and put them on my ride. It makes the car look a lot more sporty plus it gave the Max about an inch lift. This car pumps out about 225 horses. Trust me, I can smoke about 70% of the cars out there on the road.





This is shot of the front with the new wheels. Notice those vents for the fog lights and those ugly side markers. They're up next. That's a good shot of my house, the Expedition, 2003 Maxima, and the Nissan Truck.





As for the interior, there's not much, but I have something to turn some heads. I don't have a fancy Apline Multimedia deck or anything, just the factory CD and tape player. What can I say, it gets the job done. Maybe someday, when I get my new car, I will buy an Apline System complete with the component speakers and everything, but for now, this car will work for a college student.





A close up of my art piece in my ride. I called this the "Meeting of the Buddhas." I am not a Buddhist, but I like the artwork. The center one was my brother where he bought it from Phoenix Express, and the smaller ones came from my friend, Jessica Lau, whose family happens to own the Lucky Bamboo shop in Fayette Mall. So if you want some Buddhas, go see her. These Buddhas suppose to have some goodluck, and trust me, I am speeder, and there are times when I should have been busted, but I didn't. So if you have Buddha, rub it for some goodluck. For all of you haters, don't hate the Buddha, hate the game.





This is a shot of my Profile Baja California amp. It pumps out 200 continuous watts per channel, I think it's at 2ohms. It maxes at 600 watts. I got to say, it's not a bad amp. I had this amp since my senior year in high school, and now I am a senior in college. Also, I only paid $90 for it, so it was well worth it. This amp is not the kind that you would show off at competitions and stuff, but it will turn some heads, but that means, you got to have the right speakers....





These babies are a pair of Pioneer Imp with a power rating of 450 max Wattage. I think it handles somewhere between 200-350 continuous watts. Oh well, it sounds really good in my car. Before these speakers which I got for free, I had some Kicker Comp VRs, some Kicker classics, and some MTX Thunder 3000. Out of all those speakers, I got to say, these are the best.





Before I do some work on my car, I might as well give it a good ole washing and scrubbing. That's how we do it here in Nashville. You might as well ride clean, or not ride at all.





Time for some light installation work on the 2000 Max. You can see my brother is doing all the work. That's because I am too lazy to help out. Oh well, free labor, what can I say. The first to go are those orange front side markers. I bought some markers off of Ebay from some seller. They were pretty cool. I think for all four, it cost somewhere between $55-60.





"Take those crappy orange sides and put on those clears. Man they look great. It matches the front lights really well.





Next, the rear side markers, they were red, which look kind of all right because it matches with the back lights, but since we clearing the front lights, I might as well clear the whole thing.





After the side markers were done, Sovann started on the factory foglights. The kit cost me about $200. Anyways, I didn't pay for it, my mom did. Well she pays for everything. The factory works really well because all the wires and the adaptors are already there, plus it looks a lot nicer than the aftermarkets.





The final piece!! The fog lights are installed thanks to my brother. After the turn signal was installed, we were in business. I also had to represent the Titans with an offical license plate.





Check out the front lights. That was worth it. Notice the white lights. I used American Products Company's H3 Superwhite Bulb for the front and fog lights. I had to change out the bulbs for the new lights because the ones that came with it didn't look bright enough.





This is shot from the side, you can see the side markers in action. Pretty cool stuff huh!!!!





This is my younger brother's new car. The deal was that he gets a new car, and when he graduates, he works for it. I, on the other hand, get the 2000 Maxima. Enough said. Yeah, his car is the top of the line GLE model, with the works such as the leather, wood, sideskirts, automatic systems, sunroof, and of course, a 255 horsepower engine. He took his rims back as well and put it on the new car. I really can't believe an 18 year old is driving a car like that.





This is my sister's 93 Mazada 626. I think she was the first person in Nashville to buy it because it was really brand new. It was a nice ride. It's still driving, so that's a good thing.





My Older Brother's 1999 Expedition. He's got so many kidz, this thing is perfect. I think I could be dropped about 2 or 3 inches for a nicer ride. It's too high. He's also have a 95 Nissan Truck. I think I have a picture of it in MY FAMILY page.





This a shot of the 2003 Max, the Mazada, Expedition, and my Dad's 87 Nissan Sentra.
