Some starter pics, I kind of started working on it the moment I got it, it was black but I have begun stripping/working on all of that as well as ripping out lots of junk in the motor, car is absolutely slammed, its beautiful but impractical, I will raise it, no idea what coil-overs.

Goal: 300-320 WHP Weekend driven, insane paint and aesthetics.

Base: 1998 GS-T spyder Auto, unknown rims,mint body, unknown 4g63t, runs okay with random maf code P0100, ripping it all apart anyways so rather than tracing the problem right now, we figured we will get there after we put everything new on. stock ct26 and some other random junky boltons that I will be selling, some are okay, piping's good etc.

Planned mods:
AEM Uego setup wideband
Billet fuel rail + better FPR:?? Need suggestions or does the factory one support 630cc injectors havent delved
Factory cast manifold, polished to a shine and dremeled slightly to expand flow/create backpressure ~in progress
Big 16g maybe with evo3 internals~ En route
Alcohol/methanol cooled FMIC and alum. piping (Planning some sort of co2 Cold bar in the piping also)~ En route
Complete teardown of upper//removal of head to inspect what we have also to learn this motor very well, head first. ~Processing, videos to come~
MAF Translator +GM Maf~ still debating

FIC 650cc injectors.
Cams Preferably 26x's Recommendations please!, I saw some crower 272s and while they sound incredible, thats just a tad too much for me.

+some catch can, maybe a gatorade bottle with scotchbrite and vodka inside

Have no turn signals currently, or low beams.. any ideas what could cause this? Havent busted open the fuse panel or voltmeter yet but if it isn't that anything common here?

As far as paint and exterior, I am tossing around ideas but haven't really settled on a color, the body is actually in immaculate shape despite its age, almost NO DENTS or damage anywhere, its kind of amazing, there is one dent in the door from getting it from the shipping container sadly but. alas its less than quarters size.

Going to use this car as a baseline to teach myself how to build and tune this platform, always wanted one and when the right buy came around I had to have it!
 
I am looking for recommendations for the ecu, I looked at a haltech 1500 because I have previous experience in a fd 3 rotor with this but.... idk

Speed density is what alot are saying, any info on this?? save me the research :D
