Must be a sad time of year, dubsesd. Looking incredible, as always. :thumbsup:

How's the handling (understeer) with the 10" rears? I'm guessing you're on coilovers, but your front camber looks stock... did you do anything, setup-wise, when you changed from the CSLs? I'm going to have a play with 235/275 (on KW V3 and CSLs), but might switch to 245s on the front if it feels a bit iffy.

Notice I'm assuming you actually drive the thing hard. :P

What happened to this guy? His Z is stunning. Looks like he went into hibernation and never came back. :(
