NEW GSX SOON!
Hey everyone... well it's finally happening, my dreams are comin true haha. I'm getting a 95 GSX. The date for me to pick it up was decided on isSeptember 23. The reason why we're waitin so long is 1)we're trading my rs for this gsx, and i need a little time to finish up the interior and fix the cracked front bumper, and 2) He lives over 6 hours away, and i'm going to be around his area for a wedding that weekend. It's definitely a project car, but also DEFINITELY worth it... here's the parts list:
the car:
-Brand new 2001 Corvette Z06 Blue paint
-6 point roll cage (the bar by the doors have a pin-locking system so you can swing them out so it's easier to get out of the car)
-eibach sport springs
-kyb agx shocks/struts
-atr exhaust w/race pipe
-stock leather seats w/ dash pieces intact
-airbags removed and car is gutted to shed some pounds for the track.
-97-99 oem bumpers/side skirts
-all wiring harnesses
the wheels:
-volk le-37 18 in.
-toyo proxies t1-s tires
the motor:
-6 bolt block with 7:8:1 pistons and 1g big rods
-lightened crank
-balance shaft removed
-new oil squirters and oil pan
-polished head
-hks 272 cams
-880 injectors
-ferrea 1mm over sized valves
-crower titanium springs/retainers
-bronze valve guides
-new lifters/rockers
-aem cam gears
-greddy timing belt (kevlar)
-new oil pump

-8 1/2mm magnicore wires

What happened was he bought this car and started to work on it, but then wound up buying an evo and set this project to the side. It's been sitting in his garage for the past three years and the newly built engine has never even been installed so it has ZERO miles on it. Also, all the shocks, springs, wheels/tires only have 700 miles on them. He wants to get rid of it cause it's just taking up space, and he lives close to D.C. where (and these are his words and not mine) there are a lot of "central americans" that would buy my rs in a second... so he's basically selling my car for me haha. How sweet is that?? now the car needs a tranny, radiator, and turbo set-up, but don't worry thats all in the woodwork

well it needs a transmission, full turbo set-up, intercooler kit, radiator, and basically all of the interior is stripped, so it'll need airbags, and interior plastics... we all know that the stuff that it needs is NOT cheap. He's been slowly parting it out. Heoriginally was looking for 5k for all of it cause it's just been sitting in the garage for the past three years. He suggested maybe a trade with some cash, but i said "well, since both of our cars are "strong in the area that the other's is weak. Mine is all cosmetic, yours is all motor, why not just a straight trade?" And with a little here and a little there he was ok with the trade. So all in all, im excited haha
