UNBROKEN’s Iconic Silver ST build

[ConspicuousConsumption]

Roger that. And you wanted more sidewall for ride smoothness or aesthetics?

thanks for bearing with me. I follow your ideas closely!

 

[UNBROKEN]

A little bit of both. I really dig the 20’s with a 295/45 just didn’t wanna go that small on a wheel.

1…just to do something different. I started the 22x10.5 trend…maybe I’ll start a new one. lol
2…I wanted a bit more sidewall but not more OD of a taller 22” tire.
3…there’s way more 295/40/21 tire choices than the 22” size I like and pricing is a lot better too.

I didn't think I could afford to follow this build before but I now know I definitely cant now!!

But I also have a browsing tab open on the BC Forged site!

Yeah it’s a love hate relationship with [mention]UNBROKEN [/mention] and his threads. He works hard for his money and likes to spend it. He has a wealth of knowledge in the platform but he’s probably cost me $10k in upgrades

He got me on 22’s and the Thermal and putting a much better stereo in my car than I originally planned. Nothing like his but by far the best I’ve ever installed.

Never seen a hearse with a luggage rack.
Wife can’t gripe…I bought her a new car today to replace the new car I bought her last July…because it didn’t have keyless entry. lol
It’s the exact same car…just has keyless entry this time. I figure stupid shit like that gives me carte blanch to do whatever I want. lol

Good thinking! Mama got a new car two weeks ago. Nicer in many ways to my ST. I’ve had similar philosophy for 34 years. I’ve got a handful of expensive hobbies. Costs me pretty much double for any expensive item. One for you, one for me.

That's funny....we're all on the same program. My wife's latest car cost way more than my ST. Gives me the same leeway as you folks!

Happy wife, happy life they say! She got nice cars, shoes, and jewelry. I got motorcycles, cars, guns, and golf trips.

ST-Line grille with Timberline oval looking sweet. Euro heads and new fogs are out getting tinted PPF. Disassembly this weekend for the full front end refresh. View attachment IMG_5854.jpeg

Can't wait to read more about these Euro headlights. Looks clean!

 

[UNBROKEN]

One step closer. These are the trim pieces for the IB opening in my spare tire well for the AE IB15AU’s. They will sandwich the floor pan and waterproof foam. We also cut the mounting plate for both amps but that’s just a boring rectangle of aluminum so I didn’t take a picture. View attachment IMG_5865.jpeg

I didn't know the timberlines had a different oval. Is the timberline oval black or just a darker blue?

They’re black

Gonna be a long week waiting on paint work. These Euro heads with lightly tinted PPF are ridiculously awesome

Phew…that is one ugly bucket of bolts. View attachment IMG_5889.jpeg

Jeez man. How long did it take to break it down this far? And here I am worried about the intercooler job

Maybe an hour. It’s really not hard to get them apart.

When doing all the performance upgrades, did you beef up the rear end? If so what did you upgrade?

The rear has FenFab billet vertical links and subframe bushing braces, Steeda adjustable toe arms and ID Speed prototype diff brace I was one of the test cars for. I have the JXB bushing inserts I need to install this week too.

Euro fogs too? They deff look different either way in your picture.
