    Here is a screen shot after some work. The boost gauge is reading right around 23ish... Figure I will leave it here for a while since I do not know much about the stock motor. Maybe a mild build in the future with a better head gasket, some cams and and intake manifold and some upgraded...

    Getting ready to do some Tuning!!!I could get use to this. Much better priced than 91!

    One thing to note: since I installed the ecu with ecmlink I have had 2 cam sensors fail on me. Not sure if this is a coincidence or if there is a real problem. If it continues to happen I will have to do some digging into what is causing the failures.

    Well the turbo is installed along with the intercooler piping. I was able to keep the fog lights, so I am happy about that. I also put in the EGR block off plate. I left the boost controller open, so it is set at 15psi from the wastegate springs. Time to get a base tune on and then turn up...

    Thanks!I haven't been able to keep them quite yet. Its been a little challenging clearing the bumper ducts that push air to the stock IC and the trans oil cooler. Still doing fitting and trimming.I just used the Megan Racing upper control arms, Nothing fancy.

    The HKS BOV that came with the IC kit had been painted a flat black color. I have been trying to coordinate blue with the car, so I figured while I wait for IC parts I would re-paint the BOV cover.

    I got the turbo installed, and found out I was right about the IC pipes. They will not work where I mounted it so I am waiting for some more parts to get it installed all the way. I did notice that my water pipe started leaking right under the power steering pump. Removed the turbo and pulled...

    My turbo finally came from back from FP, but I also decided to go with a recirculated O2 from STM, so there was a little more waiting. They are both here and together now.I also changed the plugs and replaced the throttle body seals. I was surprised to find iridium plugs in there.

    Figured it was a good time to install the marker lights I bought a while back. I like how the they look against the white.

    Relámpago Blanco

    I also got the intercooler installed. I really wanted to keep the fog lights, so I put it in a little lower than I think it was meant to go. Not sure if the piping kit I bought will work now, but I will figure that out after I get the turbo installed. I would like to have a chat with whoever...

    It's been a while since I posted, but I did get my front upper control arms installed and took her back to the alignment shop. The rear camber on the left side is still a little out of spec, but now I know how much more I need to add to the spacers.

    I also installed the bspt - npt adapters to finally add my oil pressure sensor. I decided to keep the stock one as well for now, undecided for how long though. I also reached out to FP, they said they are still waiting on my compressor wheel to finish the rebuild. I figure I should start...

    Last night I ordered some Megan Racing upper front adjustable control arms to fix my camber and I shimmed the rear. I took a guess on how far to shim it. My plan is when I get it back on the rack with the front arms installed I can look at how much it changed from last time and do the math to...

    Did get my intake filter with MAF adapter installed as well.

    Relámpago Blanco

    Still waiting to get the Green back from FP. Plan to install the intercooler and the turbo at the same time. Also ordered some throttle body shaft seals. I was told with 200k+ miles they will need to be done and maybe the biss screw o-ring. Also need to get my camber adjusted, but should be...

    Tackled some of the fuel work today: Installed the new WalbroOpened the siphon a littleFinished the rewireInstalled the new injectors and adjusted the Dead time and Global in Link

    My fuel pump was supposed to arrive yesterday, but it has been delayed until Monday. In the mean time I put in the 90 that allowed me to put my timing cover back on. I also started wiring in the fuel pump relay.

    Relámpago Blanco

    I haven't been able to do much more, but I did get the wideband wired in and calibrated. I wired it to pin #75, the rear 02 input. I also wired in the gauge and left some pig tails for the oil pressure gauge that is coming in the mail.

    I took a daytime pic. I also received the injectors back from Fuel Injector Clinic. I will wait to install those after I get the fuel pump installed and re-wired.

    Took the car to get it aligned at Brakes Plus. The manager there gave me tickets to the Jet Car Nationals at Bandimere, so there was a little bonus. I could only get the toe adjusted until I get upper control arms that allow camber adjustment. The car felt a lot better afterwards.

    The kit that I bought from extremepsi for the fuel pressure regulator did not leave room for the top timing cover to be re-installed. I will have to leave it off until I get a shorter 90 elbow installed.

    I ran a wire through the firewall for the fuel pump re-wire when I pushed the wideband connection through. I am hoping this saves me some time later.
  23. Relámpago Blanco

    Relámpago Blanco

    Today I was able to get the wideband almost installed. Still need to make the wire connections and get the gauge hooked up. I did get Link and the fuel pressure regulator done. I still need to add some zip ties to the vacuum lines.

    Relámpago Blanco

    Hoping to get link, LC2 with gauge, and fuel pressure regulator done next. Still have to get injectors, intake, intercooler and piping, fuel pump and turbo.

    Finally got the brakes bled and the exhaust on (HKS High Power turbo back with a high flow cat). Swapped the rims with the GSX that my step-dad had in storage. Not completely in love with them, but they will work for now. I do like how it looks lowered, and I definitely need an alignment now...

    Unfortunately the bolt going through the middle of the lower control arm was rusted and it broke off when I tried to remove it. I had to torch it off so I need to get another lower control arm or bushing to finish up. After I get the suspension buttoned up, I will bleed the brakes and see what...

    The front rotors and calipers are from a 2006 Outlander. The rotors are just a little bit bigger.
  28. Relámpago Blanco

    Relámpago Blanco

    Started installing the new brakes and the suspension. The back rotors were rusted on pretty solid. I am guessing the suspension will result in a 2"-3" drop, so I will need to adjust it after I set it down.

    Finally got started, painted the brake calipers.

    Hello everyone, I have started collecting parts for my 1997 GSX and plan on a moderate street build. This is my first DSM, but I have been a fan for a long time. My step-dad has 2 '99 GSXs that he drives/works on when he has free time, so I am going to use him as a resource when I can...
