Default shhhua's daily 2004 black onyx *updated 5/15/11 pg 3*

*Updated 5/15/11*

Ok, so my car is pretty much to where I wanted it to be when I first bought it. Simple with just an exhaust, drop, and on some nice wheels.

August 2009:
Bought my 2004 Black Onyx sport design.

-20% tint




January 2010:
-SRT intake w/ race ecu
-GReddy Evo2 exhaust
-BC Racing coilovers



May 2010:
-Volk GT-S 19x8+49 all around in gunmetal








June 2010:
Sold the GT-S and went back to stock wheels because the width and offsets weren't what I wanted. But I did end up finding a set of wheels I did like so I put in an order for those.



October 2010:
SSR's finally came in!

-SSR MS1 18x9 +31 HP and 18x10 +37 SL in gold. Got HP disc up front because I plan on getting LS400 bbk next.

Arrived after 3 months!



Got them mounted and balanced the next morning.



Put 215/40/18 on the front.



and 225/40/18 on the rear.





Went and got my fenders rolled two hours later.



Rears on.



Wheels on! I took off the blue tape, but I kind of like it







11/24/10
Lowered the car a little more a few weeks ago, but never took any pictures.





5/15/11
Just got the car back from the shop yesterday. Added vertex rep front and sides and a chargespeed rep rear. Just need to detail it now (more pictures on page 3).

They are on now, I just forgot to put them on before I took the picture. Guess I was too excited to just take pictures once they were all on.

Glad you got them on and fitted! Now just go lower!
Looks good though man. And you'll love the LS400 calipers.

Thanks Corey! Yeah, I'm planning to go lower this weekend. Sucks that I won't be able to get LS400 calipers until next summer since I have school to pay for now
