so Tom, i have a ? for you.....i was trying to piece together a rear Stoptech kit for my car awhile ago. what caliper kits are those? the ST40 up front right? and what caliper is that? i know Stoptech made a few kits for the Gs for F/R but they utilized a ST22 rear caliper if memory serves me right. if your running front kits on the rear, isnt the braking gonna be heavily biased?

good to see you back Tom

i would find out if this kit is running dual ST40's if it is, i really think braking biased is gonna be really heavy and off....the rears dont need to brake like the fronts

Am I the only one who preferred your car black? IMHO your car now looks like something we've all seen before. Chrispy's car with JP kit and Scaras and Big Ty's car when he had the JP kit on. Not saying that it doesn't look good but definitely not original.

i didnt want to say it but i preffered the the black with the l-tuned grill and the other set of wheels. but black with the jp/taba (i know the taba grill not so much but it looks so similar so the the jp,,,,) grill and scaras has been done to death too
i love the pic in his signature, with NO TINT, looks great

Everyone has their opinions.. Good or bad doesnt matter I build it for myself. Even tho its not up to par with other folks but im satisfied at where im at. Im sure if you spent the amount of money that I did on my car youll feel the same way. Im not trying to be like chrispy im doing what I want to do and I love the new color .

Good for you Tom! That's all that matters. Besides, white GS's are always better! I love it, just think it sits kinda funny in the pic, I personally like my front to sit lower than the back, not vice versa, but to each his own. Front view pic looks crazy!
