Re: Potential Buy 1997 GSX

Anyrate. I have a list of things I want to add to the car before i pay for dyno time weather its to fix an issue or just as part of my plans for the car.

Mostly cooling system fixes.
-xline radiator
-mishimoto fan shroud with fans
-mishimoto lower thermostat
-mishimoto 1.3 radiator cap
-mishimoto sandwich adapter for oil filter housing
-map oil cooler
-aem oil pressure gauge
-aem oil Temp gauge (maybe)
-aem uego sensor replacement

If those those things dont keep coolant temps below 200. Then ill look into installing all the heater stuff. As to make life easier I'd probably pull the engine at that point. And would probably wait till taxes and just have the car painted since I'd be pulling the interior out and motor.

Been debating on keeping car red or doing a full white make over, interior metal and all would get painted white.
