oK guys whats is the best all around rebuild kit for my 92 gsx
Thanks trevnasty:dsm::talon::laser::thumb:
 
Theres a kit on ebay that I know works good, its not forged pistons but its got updated (no upgraded) pistons. Its complete down to the balance shaft belt. But if your wanting to go big hit up Bushur, you cant beat experience. Thats my 2 cents. Im pretty sure theres gonna be hate mail for the ebay part!! I just rebuilt my 1g with a kit from napa and so far so good, Ive hit 25psi and no big feiry death yet, but still dont have many miles on it.
 
I'm about $3,200 into my Eagle/Wiseco combo, all BS eliminated, all machine work done, all ARP hardware, race bearings, etc.

It was the cheapest BEST build I could find for a street 2.0 car.

Got 90% of my parts from Extremepsi, and the other from JNZTuning.com

Both good sites and cheap prices, so don't hesitate to check them out, they always have specials going on.
 
when I first got my car and rebuilt the motor, (necessary since the motor was trashed), it cost me about $5000 between all the parts, full engine machine work with new bearings, and some of the externals needed. the short list is as follows...

Crower rods
JE forged pistons 7.5:1
total seal rings
standard SS valves nitrite coated
all new valve seals
balance shaft elim.
evo III big 16g
full fuel system upgrade from SBR no injectors (pump, lines, regulator, dsm link, rail, etc.)
Greddy profec boost controller
fluidyne radiator
water pump and all timing belt parts
new head (old on was warped beyond repair)
fidanza flywheel and 4.3 clutch

I know it may seem like a lot but in the end I have an engine that should be able to withstand about 35-40 psi if I really wanted to push it there. I am planning on staying at a max of 25 if I get a new turbo. this build is also a little over the top for most people.
