I am looking forward to rebuilding my 98 GSX but I don't really know what to do to the motor to make it quick? I was thinking about a 2.3 stroker kit, but I dont know kinda of parts I would need to build it. If you guys got any suggestions for me let me know.
Thanks

What's the budget in terms of time, money and patience?

Why are you rebuilding it? The stock motor will take all kinds of power.

Only modifications my friend dsm_98 has is a 1g BOV, Injen Intake, custom 2.5 cat back exhaust, air/fuel & boost gauge. As for why he's rebuilding it I have no clue, I think it's because he couldn't beat a 99 civic SI with headers, intake, exhaust :P. Haha just kidding man, don't take it to seriously.

Don't rebuild unless it's knocking like a jackhammer.

Why not get rid of the t-2 small first?
Then more supporting mods. Only reason to rebuild a 7 bolt are crankwalk, crankwalk, and over 400whp...oh and crankwalk.

Ok I guess rebuilding it wont be a big problem, but wanted to rebuild it because its got over 100k on the motor and its probably a good idea. If you guys got any advice let me know.

What does milage have to do with needing a rebuild? It the compression is solid, a leakdown test does not surface any severe issues, and your car "runs" well, why start messing with things until something actually happens which requires major engine work?

That's a SIN!
