Re-Inteoduction/Boost Build Feedback
Alright guys,
I haven't posted anything showing my car in a while, so I'll start with a description of what I've done since I've started here,
So it started out as an 89 DX Hatch that was lowered on Tokico blues, and skunk2 coil sleeve. Yes, skunk2 not ebay. Crap, but good crap.
It had a D15B JDM 2 stage VTEC block, the the OEM D15B7 head on. The previous owner had destroyed the original block, and bought the legit block from a guy who swapped the VTEC head onto his car. Weird, I know but that's what he told me recently.
In this time I have added a lot. Sort of.
A couple "glory shots" haha some old setups I had, but I gotta keep changing it slightly! Here's my current Setup!
Suspension, Wheels, Tires, and Brakes:
•Tokico Blues, Skunk2 coil springs, rear sleeves removed, front sleeve on without adjustment ring, and sleeve on top of coil.
•Ebay camber kit, F/R
•0* / 3* F/R camber
•Wilwood 4 pot Big Brake Kit, 12.98" Rotor
•15x8 +13 Diamond steelies(Yes, +13 not +12 they are the old model)
•ARP extended wheel studs, 25mm rear spacers, 5mm front spacers
Chassis, Interior, Stereo:
•ZG 2.25" / 2.75" Fender Flares F/R for a 240sx, e36, 240z, ect. That I cut slightly to fit to my liking.
•Amber Corners, Bumper Lights, Walmart fogs with yellow tinted glass
•"Propped up" stock wing
•Ebay quick release
•O'Reilly's Racing seat, have had that for a while!
•AC/Climate Control cabin fiber delete panel(Custom) with Autometer A/F guage
•K-Tuned D and B Series Shifter (Awesome!)
•Si Door Panels and Dash
•Kenwood Deck, Kicker 5-1/2 Door speakers, Sonic Electronics 6x9's that I cannot remember the specific brand of, Kicker Comp 12" sub in BIG box, 760w Pioneer 2-way Amp
Engine, Transmission:
•D15B JDM 2-Stage VTEC Block
•D16Y8 Head, ported and polished intake/exhaust, full rebuild and cleaning
•OBD1 Conversion, D15B2 IM/TB
•Unknown cold air from my buddies B-Series swap
•D/C Sports Headers, 2.5" cat less exhaust with magnaflow 40 muffler
•91 Si Transmission, WITH LSD.
•OEM Si Clutch and flywheel
I think that's about it besides the front splitter and "race" look side skirts I'll be making soon.
Pics!
Don't worry, that handicap spot is old, and isn't used anymore;P
Alright, I hope the pics show up.
Anyway, I'm curious.
I've seen B-Series guys do it, Concrete Blocks. Filling the block with devcon to act as a larger block guard. Of coarse with holes for coolant to flow through.
How much would I have to build my head, if at all, besides the headstuds I already have, with forged pistons and rods, to run 20-25psi on a gt35r? Cast manifold, keep the exhaust as is, e85, injectors, fuel pump, ext.?
Been toying with this idea for a while now, and I actually have the money to start it!
Anyway thanks for looking!

Is there any fads that you can resist and not join the bandwagon on??
I imagine an 18 year old hipster, was very surprised not to see a tow hook
