Default time to upgrade, ls/vtec here I come! Suggestions...

Ok, well the time has come to finally upgrade my Teg. Just a breif history, I have a 95 ls auto 4 door (DB8) that was givin to me for free. It has 192,xxx mile and suprisingly runs decent still, no smoke or leaks. Unbelievable. Well, like i said, it's upgrade time. Would like to get this project running by spring and then painted before the summer. Here is what I have planned, any opinions and suggestions welcomed:


ls/vtec
golden eagle ls/vtec conversion kit
bore & hone .40 over
stock crank micropolished & maybe knife edged
eagle rods
arias pistons flat head(good for n/a,turbo/nitrous) compression 10.4
new bearings
arp main & rod bolts
sleeve guard

4-2-1 header
custom piping
magna flow exhaust

GSR head pretty much stock for now (cams later)
adjustable cam gears
Intake (not sure what yet)

hondata s100 for tuning

gsr lsd tranny

tein coilovers
type r front & rear sway

Goal is for a streetable ride with a mild turbo 6-8 months later. Trying for around 250-270 whp (maybe more) of course with the turbo. Not to sure what it will make with out it. Guesses anyone?

Once the drivetrain is complete, then I will work on cosmetics, paint, jdm type r front conversion and interior.
