First time I've really updated this site in a long time. I broke up the site into several categories to try and organize this chaos. I hope you enjoy.

First, a little background information. I am 21 years old and go to school at Indiana University. I grew up in Las Vegas, Nevada and spend my summer and vacations there. My first car was a Dodge Neon Sport 4 Door Sport that I had a lot of fun with. I went through 3 stereo installations before I was satisfied. I also did the typical performance mods that actually made the car fun to drive. To see some pictures click here.
When I decided to get a new car I searched around for a couple of months before stumbling upon the Nissan Maxima while I was looking at the Pathfinder. I don't think I could own a truck because I love the way that cars perform and you just can't get that out of a truck (except the lightning).
From the get go I knew that I would be installing a system so it influenced my purchase. I didn't want to buy the Bose system just to rip it out so I got cloth because I couldn't find a car with Leather in Gray Lustre or Sterling Mist that didn't have the Bose radio. I also decided on getting the automatic for a couple of reasons. First, the convenience of the remote start in a cold climate like Indiana, and second, I blew two clutches in three years with the Neon. No I am not a bad driver, I just used to beat the piss out of it and now I baby the Max.
System was installed while the car had less than 1000 miles on it and was completed at 4:30am when I left for Indiana at 7:30am. Many thanks to Dave Reyna of Audio Xcellence and Jorge formerly of Audio Xcellence, now with The Good Guys.
