I have a 93 GST & want to put some more money into my engine instead of making my car look good. I was going to install Skyline Heads, but I'd rather spend the $1000 on my engine. Here are my upgrades so far:

Rebuilt Engine
16G Turbo
Greddy Type-S BOV
Ported 2G Exhaust Manifold ( w/ EGT Probe )
Ported O2 Housing
Ported Intake Manifold
3" Exhaust w/Cat
Megan Racing Dual Tip Muffler
HKS Super Flow Air Filter w/Box ( Stock Rubber Pipe )
Fog Lamps Removed
Zeetter Clutch Kit
HKS Manual Boost Controller ( Not Installed )
Greddy Turbo Timer
Nology Wires
Greddy Vacuum Gauge
Greddy EGT Gauge

What should I add next? I heard that a Starion Intercooler is a good upgrade.
 
I would suggest replacing your intake pipe with a hard pipe, getting a hard upper intercooler pipe, a heartier clutch (ACT2100/2600), a better fuel pump (190lph/255lph), bigger fuel injectors, a datalogger, and A/F control (S-AFC II). You may be able to pick up all of those things for under $1000.

Also, I'm assuming you have upgraded spark plugs (NGK BPR7ES). If not, then definitely spend the $12 or whatever it costs on those.

Best advice you will get.


Also what in the world are you talking about installing "Skyline Heads" on.
 
Yeah, spark plugs have already been changed. Does HKS make a hard pipe for my year car? Is the clutch that is in there now not good? I was talking about skyline R34 Headlights. I was also thinking about RSX Tail Lights. It just costs so much damn $ for custom body work to be done. Also another question.. How can you tell when your transmission is getting bad?

What year is your car. Update your profile please and specify year.

1 Stock Clutch = Junk once you start boosting.
2 Hard pipe = No need to go big name brand, hit up www.dejontool.com for some nice piping that you can get powdercoated to match the cars setup!
3 Leave the non-performance mods alone unless its a CF hood (my opinion)
