Rebuild

[ninjadave]

Hey everyone, so after I bought my 95 GST and found it had a spun bearing, i'm finally getting the block bored over and have my forged internals and bought a new oem crank since the one in the car was shot. I had to also buy a new head since my old one was already machined as far as it could go and was on the verge of braking. I snagged one at the junk yard for about $100 now will just have my machine guy look at that and do a small rebuild on that. I'm wondering what else I should do for properly building my motor. I plan to be around 350-400 to the wheels when said and done. I already have fmc, I just need the piping, a bigger turbo and support fuel mods. What else am I missing besides a tune? Thanks

Forged internals for 400 horsepower is a big waste of money. The stock internals will handle that just fine.

The motor had to be taken apart anyways, so I figured I might as well replace them.

LSD is actually a more worthwhile investment because at 400 horses its gonna be a nightmare. With my evo 16g on stock block makes the tires squeal until 90mph. You're right about upgrading it while its dissassembled, but it would be best to save money in one area and put it in another that can reach the ground.

A set of npr pistons and rings on the stock rods with arp rod bolts is more than you need.

Got my npr set up from a shop here in town when i rebuilt my 1g last week, and threw some arps on there, with my felpro and back at it again.
