I just got a 96 gsr and I'm wondering what I should do to it first. It already has a DC 4-1 header, high flow cat, greddy evo 2 cat back, AEM CAI and lowering springs. I was thinking of building the head. I've found Buddy Club racing intake valves ($144) exhaust valves ($144) racing springs ($192) titanium retainers ($192) Skunk2 Stage 2 cams ($579) and AEM adjustable cam gears($105). Now I'm new to the modifying game and could use some advise. Would these parts work with the other mods?... Is it a good idea to go with these products?... What kind of power numbers would they give me?

 

may want to check out hte all motor section...lots of good writes ups on power/perf/ and products to use or not to use

 

building the head is not a bad idea, but if you plan on putting more power to this thing, i would start with getting a good performance clutch, and since you'll have the tranny out, its a good time to put a lightweight flywheel in. A VAFC would be a cool thing for you to play around with too.
