Try to avoid over-sharpening. See how sharpening the whole image has affected the line of the hatch and is starting to turn your rims into polygons? If you need to enhance the sharpness of certain parts of the shot, work on those areas specifically to bring them up.

BTW, what kind of brakes are you running? The look sweet!

I see what your taking about on the lines now. thanks. I am still learning post editing too.

The brakes are Rotora 6/4 Piston w/ 14" rotors. I like taking my z to the road courses. Planing on going to NOLA, Z National, Barber Motorsports Park and road Atlanta this year if all goes well.

Good stuff man. I've been taking my time. Spreading money out between cars, guns, cameras, and computers this year. Next year I think it's all 5.0...

Thanks Dan! Did you decide on your exhaust yet? What mods have you had done since I talked to you last? For me, the BIG 3 must-haves:
1) exhaust
2) shifter
3) springs

Still stock for now. Trying to curtail the mod habit.


How's the gt500 exhaust after driving around some? Did you remove the resonators?

I left them on for now. The sound to me is PERFECT. Got a little louder, but I am worried it might be too quiet for you still.

Sh!t's gonna get good!
