thanks for the kind words guys!
It's decision time for me, my FD is currently at the shop undergoing a bridgeport 20B swap, I've been saving + planning for a good 2-3 years for this build and it should finally become a reality before the upcoming winter!
Furthermore, there's also the fact that I want to build a drift car... I went to Japan not long ago and took a drift lesson day with Team Orange at Ebisu and well I instantly fell in love with all that sideways action. So yeah now I have absolutely no other choice than building a car!
If I decide to keep the Z, I'm thinking something like 245/35 on 10s + 295/30 on 12s... keep a tiny stretch and raise the car a little maybe. Still, almost everything's illegal around here, I should just move to the USA or Japan lol

Coming back... 
Mounted tires on just to check fitment but not keeping white faces, personally I really dislike the white on grey.
I also started peeling off the vinyl.

It's been a while. Car still looks the same, a bit more negative in the front.
Buddy of mine and I got bored one night, so we attempted to light paint. This is attempt number 2.

Seriously some of the best coilovers I've ever experienced, the ride is insane.
I did have to put in an larger bump stop in the rear as even with 16k springs I was still hitting lip. But obviously thats all dependent on your fitment. Ideally you would add more camber but I had to take some out due to hitting the strut when going up driveways and harsh inclines.
No slouch either..

How many of you guys are running OEM Brembo BBK?
I just picked up a set of LXZ 19x10/x11 +10 all around and the fronts aren't even close to clearing. Will need 20mm spacer minimum and holy **** do the fronts stick wayyyy out with those.
Has anyone swapped from OEM Brembo to OEM non-BBK? Is there a noticeable loss in stopping power? Are the non-BBK calipers that much smaller to actually make a difference. I really, really want to run these LXZ, but don't want to go front overfenders, and I'm not sure how much I could pull off with a pull + neg front camber.
