Wide Body Shop Car 98% Complete...(pics inside)

Our 2003 shop car was sitting for many years after dropping a valve back in mid 2004. As we concentrated from then on on our shop drag car, our 03 gsr was put on the back burner and still to this day has only 100 miles more than when it was put into hibernation at 7600 miles. We started a thread on the build close to a year ago and it has been quite a journey in deciding which setup to go with along with working with a few vendors on one off experimental parts. Now the car is back on the read for a few break in miles before getting on the dyno this week. We will then post the dyno sheets and videos and from there it will go back for some touch ups on paint and a few other misc details. The mesh on the front bumper will be painted black. The rear quarters are widened with metal, no fiberglass overlays. The side skirts are custom, the front fenders are modified voltex, rear bumper is JDM evo 9 and the front bumper is by Hirano (thanks Eric from Driveline) Wheels are Work 19x10.5 with 285/30s

As of now the car has 8005 miles and is FOR SALE, if interested PM me directly.

Made 596 WHP at 23 PSI
UPDATED PICS ON PAGE 7
Here are some pics:

Very nice car. I'm not sure about the rims either OR the gloss black on the top hood, trunk and roof. I think it would look great with it all matte blacke. Sick build none-the-less!!!

Makes me wanna keep my car after-all.

that is really sick...
i have two comments:

1) paint the front mesh black
2) i think you might need a bigger air filter.
