CAR HISTORY

As seen in The Fast and The Furious

Owned by Craig Lieberman, Technical Advisor to the movie

The car was purchased new in 1999 as a daily driver. After undergoing s
ome mild modifications, the car went under the knife for a complete makeover 
in the Spring of 2000. Dodge Viper GTS blue paint was sprayed over the 
Stillen-enhanced body. With a custom reverse-mount hood (like a Viper), the 
car is currently the most modified Maxima known.

For performance modifications, the car went to the leader in Nissan 
performance, Stillen, who added their supercharger kit and other accessories, including a Formula one braking system from AP Racing. The car produced 221 hp to the wheels. A Veilside carbon fiber wing and Bomex side mirrors from Japan round out the car�s exterior styling.

For the interior, Trimmasters provided a one-off blue carbon fiber dash kit 
and Stitchcraft provided the upholstery work.

A $20,000 In car electronics system comprised of extensive Audio/video 
component was installed as a Clarion/JBL/Infinity joint venture with the latest 
offerings from each company finding their way into the car. The car�s three
huge JBL W12Gti woofers weigh more than 20 lbs. each with a special support system needed. The car�s five JBL amplifiers produce more than 4000 watts and required two additional batteries to support the electrical load.

Other lighting and trim accessories were provided by Toucan/Ractive/Eurolite 
and can be found throughoutthe car. The engine compartment was dressed by 
Hose Techniques. Motegi Ro_Ja wheels were produced just for this car and 
custom suspension work was done by Ractive.

A nitrous system and custom roll-cage are in the works now.

This car is used in the making of the movie "The Fast and the Furious" due out 
June 22, 2001. The car was used by the character Vince" played by Matt 
Schulze in the movie.

The car was used in a few action and chase sequences. The car�s 
performance mods were performed by Stillen in preparation for the movie. One sequence in the movie, a fight scene between "Brian" and "Vince" damaged the quarter panel and doors. The studio repaired and restored the car to perfection.

The car is slated to appear in a variety of magazines, none of which could be 
shot prior to delivery to Universal Pictures for its movie appearance. The 
car�s audio construction has taken the last two months and the car was completed only days before the Hollywood Premier of the movie.

The car is valued at $75,000.
