I thought i add about me/GSX since a lot has changed to the car from my last post here ---> viewtopic.php?f=12&t=13927
Im mostly on the DSMTuners (Got a build thread there) but i thought i add some more here... Anyways some about me:
I live in NorCal for about 3/4 of the year for college (Nursing Program
) So the GSX is up there most of the year as well, however when i come down to LA, im always working on it. So in spring break I wanted to do something new to it...I was getting kinda bored with the color scheme i had going on as seen here: SF Area
So i went to town with some PlastiDip i had left over from a previous project. I was not sure on what to take on first, but my BBS seemed like a nice candidate.
and three wheels later, the final product is finished.
Now on the way back up to school 457miles one way
, i got pulled over in Meced for having a "Too Loud Exhaust" & " Dark Tint"... i was freakin pissed, and to make matter worse he asked me to pop my hood... Thank God i powercoated everything black, but he gave me hell for my exposed airfilter. I got away with a fix it ticket for both exhaust and tint. But im in NorCal, how the hell was i suppose to get a stock exhaust? Lucky i found one on CL in LA, and out of the kindness of my pops heart, he drove all the way up to Napa with it. This was at my school parking lot. 
and 30 mins later:
And thats how it sat for the remaining time at school. (My parking spot)
I ended up selling my HKS high power and boy do i miss it. Need to get something more stock looking but with performance in mind...
Now im back down here in LA for summer, and after browsing the forums i got an idea. I always loved the panda look on the talons, but never seen a silver 2g with a black top before. I was gona wrap my roof but i didn't want to waste 100+ on something that may not look good. So i bought some more Dip and prepped.
And the finished product!
So thats how it stand for now, there was more stuff i did to it like suspension, intake, bla bla i just didnt take pictures to document it. I got some more "bolt ons" in my room. But have not had time to install them. Hopefully i will before i head out North... One last photo from last Monday meet and In N Out:
Now fast forward like 6 months, and with my current GSX the brake craving came back. I was about to go Evo Brembos but they needed way to much modification to be bolted on these car. I wanted a kit that was designed for the eclipse platform, and on one lucky day out of the blue. An ad on CL popped up saying "Baer Brakes Eclipse" no way they could be the four pot style. When i clicked it i was shocked, i found my kit. When i went to go pick them up, i was in awe on just how big they were compare to mine. Here are some pics of the install:
