Awesome rides man, I agree with bloodrain tho, the rims look a little out of place. Other than that the car looks really good and good luck with upgrading it!

That gt4 looks great. I love everything about it. Don't let people tell you those rims don't look right, they look great. I like that style though. Much better than your black GT. Starting with the forged internals would be a good idea. I've considered getting a 3sgte motor and running forged internals but keeping the hp low so I could run the crap out of it. Kind of like a rally car. Good luck with your build.

Very nice GT-4. I've seen other stock GT-4s with unpainted raiser blocks. It seems pretty common, so I was thinking, Is it like that from the factory, or is it just something some people haven't got around to yet? Either way the car looks great. The GT was sweet too, I love black cars. You say you're going to find your BHP on a "rolling road"? That's a neat term, I like it. Around here most people call them a "dyno". When you get your numbers, post them up, I'm anxious to see them.
Nice cars!

I think rolling road must just be an english thing then Got my results which im not very happy with... 234.1bhp @ just below 1.0bar Result showed great mid range power but then losing peak power due to "rich fuel mixtures"  This will be resolved when i get my Apexi Power FC ECU. -------------------- Forged rebuild very soon....will be setup at 420bhp
