Default My Black SS after C6 Z06's and Strano Springs

Ok i just got back from leave (Im in the Army and this was my last leave before i deploy back to Iraq) and i finished my car while i was home so these pictures are a couple weeks old i was to busy having fun to post them but here she is all finished. Heres the list

Wheels and tires: C6 Z06's 18x9.5 up front with 275/35, 18x10.5 in the rear with 18x10.5 295/35 used Vredestein tires, didnt like the cheesy center caps that came with them so i got a different and had custom two tone SS emplems put on for that good accent had a small fitment issue but turned out well after i did a little modification.

Suspension: Strano Springs all the way around with a UMI adjustable Pand hard bar to center it back up. fitment went well i made a good guess judging on how much i thought it was gonna move the rear end over when i dropped it, drove it around the block pulled it back in and it was off maybe an 1/8 of an inch which is not even noticable to the naked eye.

Lights: Halo Head lights and new tail lights (the stock headlights were getting that crazy white film so i wanted to replace them. by the way if you ever get these tail lights (i believe there Altezzas there is a small fitment issue you have to modify the back of the car, if your thinking about getting them i can tell you why.

Hood: Added the 465hp decal for a nice accent on the hood

Drivetrain: the Zoom kevlar clutch i put in last summer (but only got 4000 miles on) started slipping so bad i couldent even go half throttle so i threw the piece of **** out and had one made by a company called Clutch Masters in SoCo and am very pleased with its firmness and drivability so far would show you pictures but obviously its in the car.

Future plans: After i get back from this next deployment and make some of that tax free money im gonna put a set of Koni 4/4's on all the way around and re do the pain since its got some horrible rock chips in the front from the previous owner and a key mark down the right side from some ******* before i got it also. then for power im gonna get an APS TT setup and that should put her just right

Looks good. Not liking the taillights though. When I bought my car, the previous owner had chrome altezzas installed. Luckily, the stockers were in the trunk.

Looks good, but get rid of the ricer lights. Just put some stockers on there. I guess I'll be the ******* and tell you that you're not even close to 465fwhp.
