Thanks guys! Yes the car is a Eyes on Designs car show winner in the 90's factory turbo car class.
It used to have a CF hood, but it started to fade, it now has a perfect stock white hood.
TJ, I like the interior. The seats fit me fine, and I'm getting used to the harnesses.
Brent, oh yes I have plans. I want to change over my fuel setup from the other gsx for starters. Maybe some larger injectors and learn to tune the AEM and get a nice E85 tune on it.
Eventually I want to build a 2.0l engine for it, add in a QM twin disk, and have Jon at TRE freshen up the trans and take out the GVR4 1st. To top it all off would be a nice top mount manifold with something along the lines of a Borg Warner S366. Then it would literally be my dream car.
Oh I'd also like to swap out the grey interior with the rare all black interior from my other car.

Dano, you should bring it to the car show tomorrow on the bluff. We'll be hanging out there all day.
PS - Pictures don't do this car justice.

Good purchase for sure! There have always been a few things that I didn't like about that car, and they seem to be exactly what you are looking to change. I can't wait to see where this car is in a years time. I am in love with the intake setup on that car, now just throw a catch can setup on there already .

Well I guess I should make an update. Some stuff has changed since the car was bought.
First off the car no longer runs on AEM EMS. I now has ECMLink V3 and is running on full speed density with a AEM 3.5bar map. I'll be purchasing a wideband 02 soon so I can fine tune it, and also probably a meth kit to crank up the boost a wee bit more with some actual timing advance.
Also the car now has the green cars fuel system. This consists of a wally 255hp in the tank, feeding a Bosch 044 inline, all fed with -8an SS. I fucked up the AEM fuel rail on the car, but it has a very nice looking stock rail with custom fittings now.
Also I've fixed the car's rear camber issues. 2" of lowering with 18"s with no camber kit made for quite a bit of negative camber as well as bad handling. I swapped over the upper rear control arms from the green car that have DME adjustable bushings in them. The car now sits straight, rides better, and has more traction.... yay.
The black and red ebay racing seats are gone as well. Albeit they looked nice, but they weren't very comfy, and they sat too high. So I decided to swap over the black leather seats as well. I think they look great, while still feeling and sitting great as well.
And some little things were done. I fixed a bad front axle, a ticking in the rear brake (no caliper clip), door weather strip fixed, etc. Changed a few things in the interior, yada yada.
Next post will be a "wannabe" build sheet haha.
