Default Hello, hello...

Had my Z for about 6-8 months but never really got around to taking pictures. Just got my wheels put on and figured it would be a good time for some.

It's a 04 with ~55k on the clock...

Re-did the stereo first since the stock Bose was a pile of junk. Added a Pioneer double din, CDT HD-62 comps, a JL 13w5, and they are powered by a JL HD750/1 and an old school eclipse 125/2 for the comps.

Wheels are Forgestar f-05's 19x8.5 +26 front with a 255/35 and 19x11 +25 rear with a 305/30 Hankook v12's for the tires. May or may not mess with spacers.. the front could probably use a 5-10mm or so. Center caps will be on tomorrow, they only sent me 3, the 4th should be here tomorrow.

Would love to lower the car but I live in Branson, MO and it doesn't have the friendliest roads for being low. I scrape on too much as it is. If I do, I'll probably go with the Stance GR+ setup.

Anyways, here are some pictures (sorry for the Iphone pics)

And don't look at my tiny brakes

I have my whole trunk Needed space for some luggage when I travel, so I had the box built in front of the strut towers. Here is a better picture.

Haha desperately! Maybe when I grow the ***** to scrape on everything. The rear wheels would also cause some problems I'm sure when/if I drop it. Would have to get some negative camber on!!

My fenders are not rolled as it sits now. Going to work on that I hope.

Cool, hopefully I'll see you guys over there. Heard there was a shop down in little rock that rolled a few of your guys' fenders. Any truth to that? Can't remember what the name of the shop was.

The fronts could use spacers, regardless though wheels are looking good.

I'm just curious, why did you right sorry for the Iphone pics and not just sorry for the phone pics? I'm not singling you out, it's just I noticed Iphone owners always say "here are my Iphone pics" while somebody using any other type of phone would just say "here are my phone pics". I guess what I'm asking is, what compelled you to say Iphone pics and not simply phone pics?
