My cambers are still pretty mild, -1.8F and -1.2 rear. One of the pics showed the distance between my tires and my unrolled rear fenders
Excellent tire! I have own a few sets of difference extreme perf. tires and these are the best so far. Just did a track day out at Infineon Raceway yesterday and grip was impressive. Pm'd me if you would like to hear more about this tire
Just trying to keep it as simply as possible, and being in Cali, any "less than normal" looking cars would get pulled over right away
Oh btw, the tint is 35% all around
It's getting dark now, but I can take a pic of caliper clearance tmr for you, there's a good 2mm gap between the calipers and the spokes.
Oh, and thank everyone for the compliments, you guys really made my day

So, you did, hahaha...Sorry sir, you weren't kidding that our setups look similar...Looking at my old pic, I realize how much better my car is going to look when I finally lower it...You'll be the first to see my pics once I install my Ohlins...Take care, can't wait for the same look.

Decide to take a few pics of my humble GSR
Mod list:
RSR DP w/ Cat-Delete
Greddy Ti (Works CB on the pic, though)
Zeal Fuction V6 9k/10k Swift Springs
17X9 +35 RPF1, 20mm front Kics Spacer, no fender rolling needed.
245/45/17 Bridgestone RE01-R tires
Endless CC-A pads F&R
Beatrush underpanel
Special thanks to:
-My GF, who always give me a hand when I work on my car.
-Edwin, who continuously work on my car and take mediculous care of it just like on his own car.
- My tuner, Bryan@GST motorsports (razorlab), and last, but not least
-Cal@Speed Element with great parts, price and service

First off the car looks super clean and functional
How do those Brigestone's feel?

Yeah man, definitely!~ I can't wait to see them and hear from you about how are the Ohlins treating you. My current suspension setup is still a little soft for AutoX and doing lapping days even at full stiff, so when time comes, I will probably upgrade to some Ohlins, KW V3 or Zzyzx (If I have the $$)
BTW, which Ohlins setup do you have?
