Talking My G Is Finally Back From The Dead!!

After being down for 18 months (that's got to be a record) and many delays on my build, my G is finally finished and running great! Thanks to Irshad, Tuan and all the guys at Genesis Racing Dev. for a great job on the install & tuning and GTM for the strong motor. Also, thanks to all the guys on this forum, that gave me advice and help on what setup to go with.

APS TT
APS Plenum
GTM Stage 1 Block(w/Pathfinder cooling mod, New Sprocket & Timing Components)
Arias ED Pistons
GTM Spec Rods
GTM Stage 0 Head
GTM Spec 11mm Studs
HKS Head Gasket
APS Extreme Fuel System
Rebuilt Transmission (New Syncros & Shift Forks)
GTM Spec Exedy Twin Disc Carbon Clutch
Greddy Evo TT Exhaust
APS 2.5" pipes
Koyo Radiator
HKS FCon VPro

The car is running great, the new clutch is much easier to modulate than I expect with no flywheel noise, the exhaust is a little louder than expected but not unbearable and the rebuilt transmission is smooth like butta. I know I need to take some new pix, but for those who haven't seen my G...





I went with Tuan's/GRD advice for a conservative tune @ 14psi on a Dynapak. I really want this motor to be reliable and last a long time.

510whp/500trq

Congrats on getting that beauty on the road again, even more powerful this time around. Did you do cams or leave that stock? Awesome #s nonetheless!

Brian, it is too bad we missed meeting up by less than a day. I would have loved to see your car in person. Tuan and I probably had the same conversation about my car as you did with yours in terms of how hard to push it. Your charts look very nice, very smooth delivery of power. It must be nice to be driving it again after so long.

Congrats! I bet it was an amazing feeling getting back in the G! Especially that first time you stepped on the go pedal!
