New guy - '14 GSR wicked white
Hey guys,
Been lurking on here for a while but only created an account after I picked one up. It's been quite an experience getting this car built and squared away, but I've learned a lot and really appreciate how these cars were put together. Love this thing.
At any rate, here's the car:
The forum has been quite a help to me so far - hopefully I can contribute back what I've learned so far.

thank you - can't Elbe they ditched Recaro for the final edition. Never understood why.
Thanks! I purchased the car second hand as a "trade in" from a dealer. The PO was pretty hard on it and there was quite a bit wrong with it. It was hardly running, CELs out the @ss, leaking everywhere, and had some minor mechanical issues. I got a deal on it, but it needed a lot of TLC. After I got the issues fixed and had Kasey at DynoTimeSpeedWorks do the tune it's a solid car.
I don't know if the bottom end is built, but it does appear as though the PO put time into the cylinder head. ARP studs, Kelford cams of some type. I've been adding stuff along the way and the list seems to be getting longer all the time. It's come a long ways from day 1 though:
Me too! (:

Thanks 
I do too - the PO did a rather sloppy job. It's my intention on redoing them properly at some point this year. Just enjoying not having to work on it every day for now. haha
God knows its tried my patience a few times. I think that's just how these things are though.
Thanks!

The NT03s are currently on the car man.
The picture with the OEM black wheels was just from the first day I managed to get it idling properly and pulled it out of the garage. -asher
