Yea my first car that i learned all my mechanics stuff on was a 95 maxima that i did all sorts of insane **** to.
I pretty much stopped modding it once i finished the rear mounted turbo on it, i am actually going to start parting out the mods sometime soon and sell the car though. I need to let it go, ive been wrenching on it and driving the crap out of it for almost 10 years...
This pic made it into one of the maxima calendars we had on the forums :
Crappy pic of the rmt:
I have tons more pics but they are on my back up drives at home..im lazy haha

I do have a garage but its a two car garage so i have my 510 in there while i was working on it and my Z. My mom lives right down the street so i use her extra spot to park my maxima. The maxima will be moved back to my house soon tho so i can start taking off all the mods. Not looking forward to it though, that car has so much sentimental value its not even funny...
I taught myself how to check the oil on that car, yea CHECK the oil...i was that mechanically stupid 9-10 years ago haha, it was ALL DOWN HILL after that

Exactly like that...except i ran return piping UNDER the car lol...along with all the oil lines.
Funny thing is now they make oil less turbo's! At least i didnt hear about them when i was doing my build at the time...but that makes life SOOOOOOOOO much easier!!!
I dont think i will ever do another RMT again though, it was way cool and it worked like a charm but i hated the ground clearance issues. I was mostly just kinda getting sick of the car more than anything, it was starting to show its age and i slowly started hating it more and more lol..dont think it was really anything with the RMT though...just me

But I cheated on it with a Z and have no use for it anymore. Gonna hurt to see all the mods I put into it go. Can't exactly return a Jeep that's been Long Armed back to stock.... lol

Well other than being unique, its cheaper off the batt, N/A temps under the hood, and no requirement for an intercooler at low boost levels (again with initial cost savings) and it makes working in the engine bay alot easier since you have so much extra room, in essence all you really have in the engine bay is a glorified CAI with a BOV lol...
I used to love going to meets and just pop my hood and walk away from my car and listen to people talk crap like "what a ***! why does he have a BOV and no turbo!?? this dude must be retarded" haha that never got old lol...
I mostly did it cause everyone said it wouldnt work and i wanted to do something no one had done before. And to be honest the SOUND IS AMAZING compared to a conventional setup. you can hear spool and wg action MAD loud and it just sounds so sick haha...

only reason i've strayed from an RMT is because i dont want to deal with cops. Seeing my car how it looks plus hearing the ridiculous sound from an RMT, i'd be asking for an impound haha, plus it not being carb legal i'd be effed in the A

It was so sad when i heard about the fire though I could only imagine having something like that happen, my 510 is the closest ive ever been to doing an almost complete build from the ground up and to have it burn down would tear my heart to peices. And i can honestly say ive done maybe 10% of what he did to that damn car haha...
I got kinda sappy reading that link tho
Glad to hear he is still motivated to keep modding and tuning though, that fire would have been enough to break 99.9% of people in his shoes.
