Hey Guys, Thought I'd introduce my self and get a build thread going. Im 21 years old and work in the performance automotive field out here in vegas. I was lucky enough to get a job doing what I do and I love every day of it. About a month ago I picked up a 1998 GSX with 130k on it all stock. I got it for a decent price and had plans for it before I even bought it. My goals with this car is about 500whp with quick spool and nice street drivability and a 125 mph trap speed goal in the 1/4. I have started to gather some parts and start the build process. I plan on bringing the car to Texas for TX2k13 just to have some fun and hang out with the great crowd the texas meet brings. I have background in building 4g63's for evo's from basic upgraded bolt on cars to fully built 700+HP 4g63's. I have also had a lot of tuning experience with ECU flash and tephramod v7 ect tuning evo's and STI's alike.
I am excited to put this car together and make it a fun car to drive around and run at the track. Here is a current parts list I have waiting to be put on the car. I have mostly everything other than little odd's and ends.
