Balance shafts?? Just get rid of 'em!

Balance shafts?? Just drive around all day with out 'em!

defintally put the other two prothane mounts in. That was the best investment I ever did with my 2g GST. Also a 16g GST, is just down right fun. Very good street car, its a night and day differnce with a 16g. Also might think about a clutch a nice 2100 or something like that.

 

[thewombis]

skip the AFC, save and get link, you will be much happier. Why spend 300 now, and then 500 later, when you can just buy it once. Besides, hold off till V3 comes out.. Its getting close FOR REAL this time, and looks amazing!

Which diff are you using?

a qauife I think. The car was exactly like it is now, give or take a little, on my profile it says BM lsd. but i talked to the mechanic that put it in and he said it was a quaife. either way it makes such a difference

Well fixed the problem of the timing belt ... balance shaft was out of phase
also got a test pipe and street tuned the car
from 9.5 9.8 afr to 11.5, the difference is huge, the engine build revs a lot faster
also did the HD lip

I usually aim for 10.5 a/f, but Im a conservative haha. Clean ride, charge pipe, intercooler and turbo and you will have a whole new animal....

HB Lip, where do I get this?

Heres a link

[SpawnedX]

, if he said HDR I would have known. Looks good, but seems terribly shoddy if you ever punch it.

 

[sik4g63]

I think thats supposed to be HD lip. Its an easy find. All you have to do is go to your local Home Depot and find something like garage door seals or garden edging.

Keep this thread updated. It's your build thread and a record of what you've done. It also keeps people motivated on their own projects knowing that they too can make it happen even if things go bad at times.

Just putting that out there.
