I finally got some pics of my Kizashi taken today. The Two Tone color is based on Japanese super cars always having that color type (black bottom) and the Red "S" is from my racing days on their 2 wheeled machines. Factory backed racers always ran a Red S on the radiator shroud.

Pics were taken on a BB 9670 not a real camera.

Also in picture 2 you can see the silver pin striping I did to the front of the car. That was done when I got the car back in August 2010. Forgot about it.
Next up is installing the PowerFilm Solar panel and gloss black hood decal thing.

I don't have any others of the Kizashi yet. Once the sun shines again I'll grab some.
Here's a shot of my first Suzuki. And it floats. This was back in 1997. I am driving it. 44" of articulation from any wheel, at the time this was a lot.

Ahh.. You can't see the tires on the Sami...
Here's the tires, but they were moved to the XJ. The Samurai received a set of 33x14" boggers and the XJ got the TSL's.
Ok, seriously... I'll get some shots tomorrow.

Thought I'd post a few last shots.
Samurai when she was younger wearing 31's. Nobody believed me she could flex like this... You gotta think back, this was before articulation was a big deal.
Then the SX4 (bought new in 2008, traded in for the Kizashi) parked next to the Lemon. RRM springs, Jetta shocks (why RRM made us do the leg work on this... Info on the shocks I posted on the SX4 forums), Rear spoiler, SWT carbon bits and parts...
And then the photo coming back from the races. SX4 competed but it was time trial track. I did not perform well compared to the Vette's and Porsche's competing but I did manage to have the highest lap time for a natural aspirated 4cyl 2.0L and under. Beating a couple of Civic SI's too. It was just after I installed the Hawk Brakes and Rotors, could carry another 10mph into the corners.

Pictures of the side and rear.
The dirt is because PA is dirty when it rains. That was less than 30miles on paved roads.

The GTR is my son's idea. We were getting idea's for the color and he liked the GTR... He also loved the Top Gear Japan challenge with the bullet train... So GTR it is.
