Default My DD (Mitsu)

whats up guys, just wanna show everyone what ive been up to lately. I havent been on the forums in a while, cuz i got my new toy im working on, but i still got my Z sitting in the garage putting no miles on it.

-97 GST

its amazing how little money you need to spend to make some good power. By the end of this i will prolly be making more power then my Z. i just recently purcahsed:

-Evo III 16g turbo (ported)
-Hi-flow manifold
-Fuel pressure regulator
-AEM fuel rail
-1200cc injectors
-Walbro 255 fuel pump
-dsm link software
-ETS 12" short route intercooler kit

Still waiting for most of the parts through the mail






my goal is over 400whp w/ 28 psi. before i install all these parts im going for a full rebuild with forged internals.

here are some pics of how my car sits now with almost every bolt- on









still sleeping: 06 w/ 46k

Nice upgrade for the GS-T, I did the same turbo upgrade when I had my 97 spyder. You will love how quick the spool up is!

thxs man, i bought it all stock, all orginal from a used car dealer. it only had two owners. it was almost impossible to find. i was looking within 300 miles from me and people always ask me why didnt u get a gsx cuz there impossible to find. unless you buy one that is all hacked up from a 17 year old kid.

Ima tell you this from one enth. to another, I was a DSM freak for 4 years and had a very fast dsm ( it would eat my z alive). If you decided to keep modding the car.. get one thing......

AAA cause pushing sucks trust me. haha

They are very fun cars when they run and do not cut any corners at all.

PS you can go a 6 bolt swap for cheap and have over 400hp on a stock motor, they do it all the time. Got to love cast iron blocks and 7.8:1 C.R haha

If you run across a 6 bolt in good condition I would still pick it up, and being you have link the swap is that much easier. Are you using v3 yet?

Damn I just sold a 0 mile brand new 7 bolt 2.4 block Sunday. I have a gang of parts is you want to pm me.

1200 ccs are overkill for that turbo. I have some 720ccs a 1g head, skunkworks adjustable cam gears, a 2g fuel rail with AN fittings welded on the ends an aeromotive adj FPR and a million other things I'm probably forgetting...
