> Hey, what’s up, I just recently bough an Altima, wich happened to be my first car. I was looking for a forum site where Altimas owner post, and found this one. **I really like the Altima because they look so damn attractive when they’re hooked up. I wanted to get advices and hints on how to hook up, and find good parts for it.** I bought a stick shift version, because I like it better. The year is 03. Ca n someone tell me the pros and cons about Altimas.

I’ve given up on lecturing people over there. :facepalm:facepalm:facepalm:haha\_1:

You’re running a multi-million dollar business though- why not just go out and buy one? Sounds like you can afford it…

1- I’m not advocating their products, I’m just saying thats a hell of a lot better of a first post than Mr. JDM Altima

2- The e36 guys don’t seem too bad, the e46 forumz are pretty pathetic though

Were you ever in the Altima “tuning” scene, I mean come on, you drive the Altima 4 door sedan. Should of at least got the coupe with the V6, and Stillen accessories.

I’ve never seen anyone diss a car for this long and still continue to own/drive it? It normally starts the day after a sale. At least you are honest Ryan!

The “tuning” was in quotes because there is no tuning scene. :rofl Bolt-ons, reflash, gay bodykits and ULTRA budget coilovers is all the aftermarket has ever produced for us, and all they ever will. Why would a company invest in legitimate suspension and engine components when there are assclowns like the guy I linked to in the OP who are just looking to “hook up” their cars? :facepalm:facepalm:facepalm

And how is a coupe any better than my car? They’re the same speed in a straight line and in corners, about 100lbs heavier (I think) and, I think, don’t look as good. It’s the same motor, just a different chassis with a marginally better interior. I’ll take an 05-06 SER 6MT over an 08+ coupe any day, the coupe is even girlier than my car lol.

I love the car, it’s just for $504/month and the limited capabilities of it it’s not the car for me right now. I’d have no problem buying this exact car off the next owner 6-8 years from now when I’m steadily in a career :up

This is my friends car, IMO it looks and rides good.

2008 Nissan Altima Coupe 3.5SE…

Stillen Fascia/Rockers/Wing  
50/35 Solar Gard Tint  
Eibach Springs  
RacingLine Front/Rear Endlinks  
Stillen Rear Sway Bar  
Nismo Cat-Back Exhaust  
19" Moda MD2 + Goodyear Eagle F1 245/35

Tell me the 4-door looks better. :bh:

Plus he isn’t a mad JDM-yo “tuner” :rofl
