I read somewhere that you can pickup a cheap computer chip that you can put into ur car to unlock its true power? Is this true? Is it doable w/ my car and how much willl it cost?

um, plenty of people do. You sound like a total newbie though who would be in over his head once he fvcked something up on his new car. Here's a thought: get all your engine mods done first, then get a custom chip made based off those mods.

Yea I am really new to all of this. I am eager to learn. What do you think is the best way for me to learn about mods and cars and fixing? I really dislike dealing with mechanics and always think they trying to screw people over....

I am going to boston in the morning to visit med school i will join up there as soon as I get back. I have several quick questions thought...
1. Is it expensive to do stuff/mod cars? What is the range?
2. Is it dangerous?
3. Is tehre a difference between a moonroof and a sunroof?

If I were you I would start with some cheap handling mods:
Front strut tower brace
and rear sway bar
Should run you about $200 for both
The others are of dubious value IMO, since Maxima already has plenty of power. Aside from the Middle East variable intake, I would only consider a y-pipe, and perhaps some sort of CAI. There is a supercharger kit, but spending 3 grand on one for a 95 Maxima is a sign of diminished mental ability.

For upgraded ecus (these chips you speak off), you'd want to get JWT's ECU. They only work on 95-97 Maximas. Combine that with a MEVI (middle eastern variable intake manifold that supertool mentioned earlier) and you got a nice beast. Then add a y-pipe.

Estimated price?
Also...the maximas require high octane? My dad always used 87s before he gave it to me....;o!
