well as it turns out, i ended up picking up a clean 92 gsx from josh aka DSM earlier this week and he dropped it off last night. these are just a few rough dirty before pictures and a quick rundown on the car. jan 92 build, 6/4. eprom ecu 89k miles from west virginia, never been driven in winter dual piston calipers with upgraded rotors agxs with suspension techniques springs 2gb gsx wheels poor lighting and dirty as hell but it's a start. it had been repainted and it needs a couple little fixes and touch ups and a some tlc and it'll be shining. it has a headgasket issue i'm gonna take care of and theres a couple things here and there i'll have for sale soon enough off it as well. planned setup for the car by spring: arp headstuds with new headgasket bullseye 57 trim (already on the way) some sort of mani/external gate setup cheap short route fmic and piping 880s and a 255 3" tbe act2900 or fidanza 3.2 megasquirt and a few other little touches. i'm really thinking about getting the blackhousing clear headlight and corner light setup and removing the stock fogs and smoking all the rear lights. the car is already all debadged and tinted so why not go all out? also im hoping to have a deal in the works for a black leather interior setup too.

reliable budget pump gas setup. nothing much crazier than what i already have planned for it. i just want a clean fun cheap summer toy. i'm hoping to be completely debt free atleast by the end of summer so i can start putting money aside for bigger life things. and i'd like to within a year or so get a nicer dd maybe an suv or something.

Abs delete is simple, and it'll clean up the engine bay alot.

not so exciting update: i picked up a 2g mani with hks external wastegate setup on trade for the s16g. the 57 trim i bought off ebay i'm pretty damn sure the person is trying to flake out so i'll likely be getting my money back through paypal on that which works out nicely since the car wont likely be fast any time soon. i've decided i'd rather do a very mild stock setup and just make it really clean and nice looking so i can have it driving sooner and not worry about making a quick summer toy anymore. i sold the winter wheels and for cash and a complete 14b setup. beyond that it'll probably get the 2g maf, a 255, mbc, and 3" tbe and call it a day.
