STM Update: 98 GSX Build, Ricer Evo and Shop Pics

Just wanted to share a few pics of what we had going on here this spring:







Nick welding above, his motor in front (grey and carbonfiber) and the Black 98's motor.









The engine above is for a customer's car, Tin's 98 GSX.

(mock-up stages)






(before paint)


(Today after paint and some serious cleaning!)














Tin's car should be one clean machine when it's done: Built SBR Motor, TRE Trans, 35R with Tial V-band, AEM, carbonfiber hatch and lexan, carbon hood... Can't wait to see your car running, Tin ...although we need to have a "discussion" about that valve cover!
We are waiting on the lexan, interior carpet, transmission, tail lights and random, brand-new engine bay brackets... then I will have some really nice pics to share!


Our car, The "RICER" is going through some transformations- coilovers, small brake kit, 15's and Quick Time Pro's. This car is still on the OEM motor, except for the cams. 45,000+ miles of abuse, and still strong! Last year the car had a best time of 10.6@134.

You can see the small Koyo radiator in the pic below... for now I'll leave the new set-up to your imagination :sneaky:

(Pic from today... and, yes, you could lick the engine bay... it's that clean )




Here's a few pics inside of our shop:












Any questions feel free to ask. Hope you enjoyed the pics!

Also, I've made a new logo... let me know what you think:

Very very nice. The GS-X was my first dream car. Come to think of it, I would still really love to have one.

Thanks guys. It's still cold and salty out, but I can't wait for spring and some clean, dry roads!

We've been in this location since January. We were in a smaller shop last year. I love the location and the parking lot
