Default Not a Z but I love em'...

Hey guys I don't own a Z (obviously), but my real close buddy does, 06 Silverstone base model, and that thing is an amazing machine. Looking under the thing, the suspension is the beefiest thing I've ever seen from the factory. Hope to get a warm welcome and learn more about the Z! Well, without further a due... Here's my hooptie.

Enjoy.

Military, Hmm. I hate that sticker cause you can see it a mile away. I have mine in the lower corner of the driver side.

nice wheels.. only if they were available in a 10' rim :-D Rota makes some kickass designs, but few of them fit teh Z. they're pretty popular w/ the subie crowd.

Those wheels look great on the Subie, but the Z needs a large lip. I would not think those would look to great on a Z or a G... They do look hawt on this car... The lugs set em off as well.

+1 on the Z needing a deep lip. My favorite wheels for the Z are the new Volk Gt-M's, I think thats them.

The sticker is a character in a JDM performance magazine, and the magazine was a Subaru Rally Team sponsor, so it was dubbed the rally pig.

The Z without forced perspective looks odd.

I think he means it looks odd without a wide angle lens distorting it. It does look quite different when shot with a telephoto lens as you can see in the shot there from above. It tends to make the back end look bigger than it normally does (at least in my opinion).


Nice pics.
