Information / Adjustments :
I bought the car for $850 under the impression that it had a blown head gasket. Turned out it had a burnt piston due to running lean and the boost level spiking around 20psi, So i decided to rebuild the engine.
Engine:

-ARP hardware all around
-balenced bottom end
-bored to 1.9 liters
-1.9l forged Ross Racing pistons
-three angle valve job
-HD valve springs
-titanium retainers
-auto tech 270 cam
-42# Delphi injectors
-garrett t3 turbo. planing on running 15-20 psi
-ceramic coated header and down pipe
-megasquirt stand alone ecu
-wideband o2 sensor
-walbro inline fuel pump

Transmission:
-Peloquin LSD
-10lb flywheel
-vr6 clutch

Suspension:
-Koni fully ajustable coilovers
-ball joint extenders
-new bushings
-upper and lower front stress bars
-rear stress bar

Exterior/interior
-aftermarket sunroof deleted (originally a non sunroof car)
-repainted Shadow Blue (LD5Q)
-ecode headlights
-vr6 grill
-90mm chin spoiler
-tt fat fives
-shaved rear badges (planning on putting a custome 1.9l badge where the oem g60 badge was)
-manual euro seatbelts
-interior converted from grey to black
-all new sound system. i'll give more info on that later. ;)






Wishlist :
-a dump pipe right off of the down pipe that's opened and closed with a switch from inside the car
-new exhaust tip
-to see it all finished with its new paint, fat fives, and new bumper with a 90mm lip
-for it to start and be drivable after it's finished
