I just drive it. I'm cautious but I'm not too worried.

Nothing really. All the parts are just coming in.

Haven't updated in a while. Both Nat and I are building our SC430's for Sema this year. Here's an updated pic of mine. Lights installed, kit installed, airrunner suspension in. Car gets repainted this week. Brakes and Work wheels on next week. Final push for the last 2 weeks before Sema haha.

Here's the finish product! Out of the paint booth and on the road fully assembled for Sema 2015. This took all of 3 weeks from stock to air, wheels, brakes, kit, and color change.

Needed this to add more camber and correct the toe if I want to run my current wheel and tire setup.





All in.





Late night alignment party.





Learned how to do an alignment.

I feel the same way about stock SC430's. Even doing something simple like wheels and drop do wonders for the look.
