Post Andrew Bynum's GT-R Makes Michael Phelps' Benz Look Like A Bitch [Celebrities]

01-18-2010 03:30 PM

In the world of star athletes there are celebs like Michael Phelps, satisfied with shiny black wheels, and then there are the afflicted. For example: Laker's Center Andrew Bynum with his "Giant Killer" Nissan GT-R and its $20K body kit.

For the $20K it'll cost you, the Wald Sports Line Black Bison body kit adds a Japanese-tuner-style aggressive touch, though we're not big on the black strip featuring various brands in an orange script. It works better on a Honda.


Performance upgrades are fairly standard and include an upgraded intake, freer-flowing exhaust, ECU tune and Turbosmart dual-port blow-off valves. And of course, because he's still a young and wealthy athlete, there are the expected 21-inch black wheels, but at least these are forged aluminum instead of chrome.

The car is featured in this month's issue of Super Street.

...but it looks horrible.
At least you could, probably, fit 22s on this car no problem.
Still not a fan of this GTR

Fan or not but I'm a fucking believer after I've seen a stock one walk on my buddy's 500whp R32 GTR...I couldnt believe that shit was pulling away from us top of 3rd gear.

i fucking hate that car and honestly am a little dissapointed in super street for featuring it. it belongs in rides or donk monthly or some shit. lets be honest here and list the mods...
1. over priced aero
2. ugly ass wheels
3. coilovers
4.intake/exhaust
thats the making of a feature car?

How the hell is anything from 'Super Street' even remotely newsworthy?!
I don't see why there's a need to compare & bash another athlete's car.
It's tacky and uncalled for.
They might as well also compare Bynum's GTR to Ewan McGregor's Prius.
So stupid.

It never ceases to amaze me how appalling these 'tuner' mags are written.
