I am pretty much at stock timing, just slightly modified. If you want to pm me your email I can send you my current settings in link.

Haven't updated this a while soooo..

Last weekend I dipped the wheels:

My plans for this spring are to:

-fix oil leak
-delete a/c
-delete cruise control
-clean up engine bay
-get a fricken alignment (too low to fit on a normal jim bean etc.. so I need to figure something out)
-convert to speed density
-get a tune by shane (already have a $150 down payment)
-new oem slave and master cylinder

Hopefully nothing breaks so I can make it to proving grounds for the first time!

Hey guys, little update for the build. Yesterday Mark and I started to shave the bay by deleting my a/c and power steering. It looks a lot better without the lines and pump on the driver's side and the battery dropped on the rear subframe.

Next I plan on getting a non cruise cable, put in my speed density setup, new clutch master cylinder, and fixing oil leaks.

Looks a lot cleaner, nice work!

Re: 97 gsx build
 

Yeah it definitely cleaned it up some.. My coolant temps are lower as well since I removed the condenser. For some reason my stock oil pressure gauge isn't reading since I removed everything last night. I checked the oil filter housing and it's still connected to the sender. I checked and I didn't lose any oil..

Re: 97 gsx build
 

Just switched to Speed Density! It was a lot easier than I anticipated. I used the SD cable from ecmtuning and am glad I did! Here is a pic of the new setup (haven't mounted the MAP sensor yet and still need to tuck the cable)

Re: 97 gsx build
 

Nice, I'm working on switching to SD as well.

The plugin cable is tits!

Re: 97 gsx build
 

Yeah it is, so worth the $40.
