Well so far all I have is a Front Strut Brace. The $10 one off of ebay. It originally came black on the mounts, but I like the blue much better. And figured I had to have some chrome.

Handles much better. I'm going to get the RSTB from Blehmco some time this year.

Here they are... pics of my latest toys.

From INTERNETAUTOMART.com I ordered a set of Eibach Pro Springs, KYB Strut Mounts and Koni Struts (currently being shipped from overseas)

From Raceshopper.com I ordered a complete set of SP Performance Diamond Cut/Slotted Rotors, HAWK Performance Brake Pads, and Techna-Fit SS Braided Brake Lines.

The Brakes will be going on this weeked. My suspension goodies will be installed in a few weeks when my Koni Struts arrive. Pics will follow as I change them out.

Okay, I spent a greuling 6 hours with a friend changing out my Rotors, pads and brake lines. Couple of close calls with both my driver's side lines wanting to strip. But got her all back together, bleed her, and took her out for her break in. Here's a few pics.

This set of images is of the passenger front Rotor and SS brake line.

To give a good idea what I had before, this is my Driver's front rotor. Brembo designed the slots to run in the opposite direction, which looked awesome.

And here's after the break in. Look really nice, SP says I can paint over the grey portion. I might try to find some High Heat paint and do my calipers and the small portion of the rotor.

Well I have finished swapping out the front struts for my Konis. Wasn't as hard as I thought, just got annoying cutting the housing. I had to wait on new strut boots till I could install the Eibach spring on. Long weekend, probably won't happen till later next week. I'll have pictures up as soon as possible.

hey, thanks for the advice. i've been thinking about doing that once i get some more cash..i just had to put new fuel lines in the car b/c they rusted out lol. you might want to check it them in your car soon too..that plastic cover that the maxima came with sorta stinks expecially when salt and sand get stuck behind it.
