Thanks!! 52,000 miles, two previous owners, the majority of its life was a lease car. Yeah, overall its in great shape. Awesome, congrats to you too!! I didn't know so much about the great reliability until I started looking, I definitely feel good about the purchase.

Totally, but for the shoot it would look cleaner without the LP...just if you wanted a little photo critique.

looking forward to more of your photos, as well as your possible build!

EDIT: didn't realize you shot for Super Street haha, don't mind me and my comments! You clearly know what you're doing

You're right though, I just haven't had my own car that worthy of photos in so long and I forget that bit of prep would make a noticeable difference.

Plans are to keep it simple, swift springs, borla axleback will be installed on friday. I have an ultra racing front strut and rear lower tie bar coming in soon too. Probably won't do too much else but who knows

GOT DAMN!!! That is a nice looking GS right there!

And the best thing of owning a GS is that u don't need ANY mods to make it look good. It looks sick AF from the factory already!

Yep I see your car in the back right now lol. I'm curious to see how the Borla exhausts sound. I too am planning to pick up the Ultra Racing front strut bar. I really want to tighten up my front suspension, and the TEIN Flex AVS I'm on are just a little too soft up front.

When I saw your name on here I was wondering if it was because you worked there! Was that your car in front of the main entrance? I'll try to make a good video of the sound, I like when you're cruising it goes away almost completely and WOT is healthy! They put on swift springs also and I went into some mountain roads to compare to stock last night. I was really impressed with the feel over the stock springs, more firm for sure and less roll.. even though there wasn't a ton to begin with. The steering response is definitely more direct. Toms makes a rear upper strut bar also that I'll be back for.

Oh and to see my car worked on next to the R34 and R33 was a treatttttt hahahha wow

Haha yep that was my car out in front...currently on borrowed wheels until my wheels come in, which is why I havent posted images of my car yet here on the board . I'm glad you are enjoying your mods! I was planning to check out the sound, but got busy towards the end of the day. Yeah the TOMs rear strut bar will definitely tighten up your steering response, I myself need to stiffen up the front before I tend to the rear, a little more oversteer than I like.
