So after owning 24 vehicles(sporty mostly, ae86's, eg6's, 240sx, crap load of 2g dsm awd's, three eclipse spyder's, two evo ix's, altima '13, etc... to many!!) In between those i have kept only one and that is my 1999 GSX! I bought it back in '09 with 81k i think it was, for $1300!!! What a steal!!! All it needed was spark plugs! Seriously went to Autozone and got it running the day i bought it and drove off without previous owner finding out!!! Then i realized i didn't even bother checking if it was awd! So i pulled over to the shoulder of the 5fwy got off and saw that diff that made me yell F*** Yeah!! flip every person off on the fwy of joy then went home and started the next day Did the basic mods fmic, full exhaust(used my evo 9 hks exhaust system slight modification) fp special 68hta free fp manifold and fuel pump. Then i bought Kelford 272 cams with kelford spring and retainers beehive kit Then temps when up thanks to fp manifold at Willow Springs over heated like crazy surprised i'm still running stock head gasket today!!! Knock on wood. So i cut the hood and shorty after added the RRE vent temps reduced A LOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Once that was settled i got these bad boys from Christ gracias! Also installed Evo IX steering wheel Shortly after i got tuned by the good o mighty Sam, results were 380whp 345tq on a conservative tune!!! Here are more pics with different wheels Went through talon phase This is what a 380whp looks like And alway working on it I'll keep you guys updated still have a lot of parts laying around for her... Has a sweet system for those interested in stealing it |

When I say the first pic I was going to tell you to change the wheels but then realized it was an old photo I like that vent you and Wes have. I may do that down the line to my GSX. How much did it run you? |
