Sweet pics man thanks..I already see what suspension parts Im going to need from Cusco. Looks like nonadjustable camber and toe arms/A arms again from factory and of course some adjustable sways. Will need that for the inevitable drop...Very beefy components underthere. This car looks to be a serious handler even stock. Love the ability for wider rubber with the factory rolled fenders....

Awesome shots of the under body, BTW
The exhaust is very muffled and quiet and sounds more e46 M3-ish than vq-ish... I like my bassani HR sounds better.

Rear Rays have 275/35/19 tires - sweet!

Good to see all of the factory rear fog wiring and plugs are there on the USDM models. Looks like all I will need is a jumper. Can you confirm?

I might be crazy but a close-up view of the dyno pic seems to show over 400 hp and over 400 ft/lbs. This couldn't have been the Z's numbers? Did they dyno a GTR or something?

Hard lines going the the brake calipers? Never seen that before. They have a flexible rubber liner further upstream to account for suspension movement. Seems like it would be a real ***** to move the caliper off to replace rotors without removing the brake lines.

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing!

Those headlight bubbles are asking for a rock chips... I have tons of stress cracks on mine.

It seems like no one has provided clips of the Z's sound... is this kept secret as well?

Those interior pics make the interior look much nicer than the over exposed flash pics I've seen of it.

The shroud on the tack looks horrible though. And the pics I've seen of the shrouds on the 3 mini gauges looks like they forgot to add them and went through a JCWhittney universal shroud bin for them and foam tapped them on.

I'm not gonna bash this car until I see it in person in a couple days but there are definatly things that look terrible in pics but are some things that might look ok.

Why does the front hub have 6 bolts?
