I was looking at some pictures today and I noticed that the GT-C looks more like the color of the Brembo package than the GT-S Gold. Can anyone confirm?

Well the GT-C is not offered in gold as a standard color. So when you add the gold color, you can get whatever gold you want.

Volk offers two main golds, just "gold" and "noble gold" I'm guessing the noble gold is the GT-S gold.

Damn I didn't even know that. Thanks for the info. I guess my GT-C's are coming in the same gold as above. I like the Noble color better.

I like the standard GT-C gold.

Oh and a not on the Top Secret Volks, I believe Top Secret gets their own special gold.

They GT-C should be the same gold as the GT-S. A teammate has the GT-C and they're a light gold. The one in the pic has flash, so I think it skews the actual in-person color.

It appears to me that flash was used in both pictures. I could be wrong.

Supsup just slapped on his Gold GT-S last night, and Donot521 also slapped on his Black GT-V as well.

They will be posting pictures sometimes this weekend. (there's a local g35/350z summer meet this Sunday)

So... until then

I've yet to get an alignment, but after I mount my rims on. I will get one. The springs are really close to factory anyway so the rear cambered toe-in very slightly. I'm going to Orlando to pick up the rims tomorrow and will take some pictures if the weather permits me to.
