joel's build

[99gsxjoel]

It is winter so now it is time to pull the car in the garage and make some more power.

My setup as it sits now is very basic.
Stock block
Stock head
Stock intake.
Evo3 16g
3" Turbo back
Fmic
950fic injectors
255 walbro fuel pump.

Very simple yet very effective. I couldent have been any more happy with how the car performed. 349whp. Ans squeezed out a 11.95.

Now for the plans over the next month or so.
At the end of last year I beleave I either snapped a shift fork, or broke the shift rail to the trans is going to get sent out for a jack's stage 2 rebuild.

The turbo as well was on its way out burning a little oil. So i am going to send it to turbo lab and have them rebuild it, and also put a 20g wheel in it.

I have also accumulated someother thing as well.
Mitsumoto radiator
H11 head studs
Head gasket
Water pump
Timing belt
Egr block off.

Now the only things I can really think of that I need is a set of cams, retainers, and springs.

I am trying to make the car as efficient as possible with what I have. If you have any guess to what my next step is minus building the block please inform me.

So I plan on taking some pics and posting them as it goes. I am sure I will be posting some questions after the engine and everything is removed from the car.

Thanks. Joel
