Here are a few shots of the GS430....SRT Intake, LTuned Steering ECU, Tanabe Exhaust, 20" JAZ Rims, and LTUNED springs sitting beside my door waiting to be put on as well as an LSport Line rear lip spoiler. Oh Yeah, it regularly smokes the M3 in the pics also: (click to enlarge)

I thought the 430's came with the updated steering ECU. If you installed one, did you feel a difference from stock?
Welcome to the club BTW.

Default k

Let me see if I can answer all the questions:

Width of the wheels is 8.5 front and 9.5 rear

The drop is coming, have LTuned springs sitting beside my front door waiting to be put on

Yep since I threw these black wheels on a little over a year ago, I have noticed more and more cars around here with black on silver...

The tree is the background are Cherry Blossom trees....we have tons of them in my city

ECU..I couldn't tell much difference if any over the stock steering unit....

It's definately the favorite of all the cars I have had......definate butter
