Default aerry408's Build

Picked up a 2001 GS430 with 130k miles a couple weeks ago, thought I'd make a build thread to show my progress



So far the stack of packages sitting in my room waiting to go on, just waiting on a couple more packages before i get started on it all.



Also picked up a set of Work VSKFs this past weekend
19x9.5 +14
19x10.5 +14
just need to swap out the tires to something smaller before tossing these on



Really looking forward to putting this thing together and being a part of this community!

Here's a picture of my last car 2004 G35 sedan, full nismo kit on XD9s, was recently totaled when my neighbor rear ended it while it was parked in front of my house,

I'd say about 30-40 mph, and the funny thing is I live in a court and she drove by my car everyday, messed it up pretty bad

Well that sums it up then.

Too bad about the Infiniti, I've always liked that model.
Congrats on the GS!
