My Y32 Nissan Gloria GT Ultima build

Before anyone says it, I need spacers badly. Ok, now that we got that out of the way here's the story.

The car originally resided in Tokyo Japan, was imported to California in Dec. 08, and it got to South Carolina in late Jan. 09. Here is a quick run down on the specs.

Engine
VG30DET w/101,600km
T3 turbocharger
Stock boost

Suspension
JIC Coilovers
Camber plates

Wheels/Tires
18" Locksmice Dukes
Front: 18x8.5 +27 225/40/18 Yokohama DNA ECOS
Rear: 18x9.5 +31 235/40/18 Bridgestone Playz PZ-1

Interior
Factory leather
Factory CD-player
Factory cassette player
Factory radio
Greddy Turbo Timer

Exterior
Tinted rear windows and rear windshield (not sure on the %)
In the process of debadging it (OEM adhesive sucks!!)

Anyway onto the pics

Here are pics of it coming off the shipping truck

The car has since been lowered, however the driver's side rear is being a PITA, and I was running out of time so the right rear is just a tad bit higher than the rest. There will be updates to follow so stay tuned. Suggestions and ideas are encouraged.

Was this car ever in SoCal? I remember seeing one in Diamond Bar before and I couldn't believe my eyes.
