hey, i'm hal - own the maxima... like jim said, one of the straps on the front snapped - so i started sliding sideways at 100+mph with a concrete wall no more than 10 feet in front of me. I hit the clutch, they hit the brakes on the dyno, and i was trying to keep it on there.. ended up slamming on the brakes and bringing it all the way down..

like jim said, wore the tires all the way through and they look like slicks now, the only tread they have is the little imprints of the X's off of the dyno.. SCARY CRAP.

i was happy to get my car out of there alive, they were a little scared too haha, im afraid to go back..

buut , it made for a fun keepsake

yeah basically the scariest thing i've been through recently (and its haunted house season..haha), and yeah im trying to get some power out of it, just wish i knew what it would put down at 10-12 or 14-15psi.. i'm too afraid to go back right now, plus im leaning it out REAL bad up at that high of boost.. oh well, more upgrades

that 0-90 run was amazing! did you spin your tires at 6000 RPM all through second? WOW. personally, i think 14.2 psi might be spelling disaster, but i don't know all that much about maximas. nice car, though. oh, and welcome to CEG.
