Thanks all.

The BB kit is from racingbrake.com. This summer I plan on getting the two piece rear rotors, painting the rear calipers to match the front and finally install some coilovers (type yet to be determined but I have it narrowed down to: Tanabe sustec pro 7+TEAS or the new mono tube coilover from Tein+EDFC, or maybe the HKS Hypermax RS. )

Not the best pics but here are the gunmetal g-games 99b mounted 04 GT. Ordered clear corners last week so they should be on in a few days. Looking to lower the car with MS or Tein soon. Definitely before SevenStock

try an 18inch ce28n or te37 and you'll feel like you have boosted your car seriously...

not to poke at you NOVA, but they only made the SF Challenges in 10 inch width the 18 inch model, the 19's only come with either 9.5 or 10.5

Oops! I bought these used and thats what I was told. I just measured it and its a little over 10.5, so it must be 10.5. and I just relized that the tire is almost 11 inches wide. Thanks for the info XDEEDUBBX.

oh, nice choice of wheels.I thought about that,but im going for looks. Alot of people get caught up in the whole"lighter wheels =faster" but I can still smoke the tires. weight difference isn't a problem for me. I know for the track it helps out, but there are some people worried about weight and never race on a track. and to those people- if you are worried about weight so much, remove your carpet,passenger seats,center console, headliner,door panels ,dashboard and change your body panels to carbon fiber. then we can talk. lol. Some peple have lightweight wheels and 100 pounds of speakers in their trunks! I'll never understand. But to all of the racers, I agree lighter is better.
