What's up fellas?
I'm fixin to get a car pretty soon and it most likely will be a 98 GSX. I have really been getting into DSM cars and such, and everyday I have more and more questions. I'm also trying to get an installation company off the ground in a little bit. For now I install systems with my buddy. *money is money:p *He's into sound, I'm into speed so we are going to combine and see what we can do.Outlaw Concepts.

Anyways back to the original statement. I have 2 main questions.
What's the difficulty on installing bodykits, assuming all fits nicely *I understand that some wont but..* I've been reading a lot of Superstreet and Import Racer! and have the basic idea but was just wondering.

Also I went down to the local tuner shop by me and made up a list of what I'd like to drop in the car. I got about 6G's to put so...

Stage 1 - Suspension
Shocks - Koni Adjustables
Coilovers - Toucan/Arospeed or TEIN springs
Strut and Sway bars - Eibach

Stage 2 - Engine Upgrades
Injen intake
Apexi N1 w/ downpipe
Highflow cat
Turbo XS blowoff valve with flange
Turbo XS boost controller
HKS turbo timer with harness
HKS FCD
Accel/Taylor Sparks
NGK Platinum plugs

Stage 3 - Preformance
ACT stage 2 clutch
Greddy FMIC 24R
Upgraded Greddy 18g turbo
Upgraded injectors/fuel pump

This was just a quick list I made up with the help of Ride *tuner shop*. Any suggestions? Also for the bodykit I was going to do the Wings West Front Aggressor with Fangs for the airdam. Don't know bout sideskirts or rear. Any suggestions or comments would be GREATLY appreciated...Thanks!
 
I will use TEIN coil-over, not arospeed or toucan. (When was last time you heard people use arospeed or toucan on professional race). If you want Apex'i, tein or bodykit stuff I will go www.rg-s.com they been give me good price.
 
Did you really have to post this thread twice for us to answer??? Get the car, then we'll talk stuff! :dsm: :talon: By the time you turn 18, you'll have a phat ride and hair in places you've never imagined before!

Haha!

Enjoy your DSM ride!
By the way: Let go the Volvo!

L8ER! :dsm:
 
Actually I didn't mean to post it twice, didn't think I did...
As for hair comment, I'm Italian..we all know Italians are hairy beasts..
:b
 
You might want some gauges to go with your list of un needed crap. If you are that young you probably won't road race/autocross so the tien suspension would be worthless. If your serious about the suspension, ditch the konis and get a true tien coil over system with the shocks. The greddy 18G is over priced and you could also get a more powerful turbo cheaper for that price. If your REALLY serious scrap half those mods and drop in a 6 bolt so you can use your stage 2 clutch.
