Newbie with gsr-t
Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Vinny and I live in central Florida.
I own a 2000 gsr turbo. It was my first car, I am the original owner, it's had a few make-overs with the latest since 2006, it was an extra in the movie 2fast2furious and had a 9 page feature in Import Tuner magazine in 2007. It was previously corporate sponsored by Meguire's and Valvoline.
I am here because I plan on overhauling the engine bay/FI setup 90% myself and clear up some things that I pretty much have put off over the years.
Some will like it, some may not... But it's been one of my toys (sleeps next to my LSB E46 M3) of now 15 years and it's been a garage queen for the last 6 and I want to change that.
I plan to;
1. Wire tuck
2. Eliminate unnecessary sensors n etc at intake manifold
3. Address running hot issue during summer (block guard prev. installed)
4. New manifold for turbo
5. Color match engine bay to exterior
6. Clean or paint block/new valve cover
7. Update as needed.
Here are a few photos of the car and my ugly outdated engine bay
Thanks.
