Default Hello world
Hi, I wanted to say hello. I picked up a 01 GS and I love it to death. I have been hanging around the forums and gallery for awhile. Glad I can officially join in on the fun!





Other pic is a 240sx that i built up (actually 2nd one). I lived in Japan for awhile so i really like all the japanese cars...

John

Welcome aboard. Looks like the Black Cherry color is starting to not become so scarce around here.

Thank you for the warm welcome! It's great you all put together some fantastic information.
As far as modding: I will probably be looking at coilovers and wheels to start. Maybe some tint. I have Tien coilovers on my 240. My friend has HKS hypermax and they are awesome! Very comfortable ride. Same conclusion with an Evo running HKS suspension. I am going to take a hard look at the HKS LS coilovers for the GS...
LsportGS4, 240 has a SR20 in it with basic bolt ons, boost at 14psi with Mines tuned ECU.

That's a great start. Definitely do a show and tell when you are ready.
