Kelford 272 cams
Kelford Beehive springs/retainers
HKS timing belt
HKS balance belt
1000cc injectors
Walbro fuel pump
ARP head studs
NGK Spark plugs
Head Gasket
Spark plug gaskets
Water pump
Thermostat
Air Freshner
You also want to get: 2 cam shaft seals, front main seal, gasket sealant, idler puller, tensioner pulley, balancer pulley, tensioner, and some Non-Pink fluid lines . Most important boost leak that bugga or all those mods are worthless. If you don't want to wait for AMS to come back to the island, then I highly recommend Tom from TSComp. He's currently tuning my car and can get good deals on parts.

Tensioner, sealant, I already have but didn't feel need to put on list. Boost leak is going to happen. And don't worry, I don't even own pink fluid lines......they're purple ha

Honestly those pulleys are a ***** to get to, better to replace them while everything is apart. Where are you taking your car for the install?

Sonics doesn't really tune evo's since he doesn't have an awd dyno, best chance is to wait for ams

And JD, there's been several Nissan Z's that have been coming so maybe you can convince your friend to come as well!
Nice meeting you too man, I had an awesome time despite the monsoon! I woulda stayed longer but my kid was still getting over a cold so I didn't want to keep him out in the rain too long.

I HIGHLY recommend all you other people to come out to the next one. It's the only place you can see what your car is capable of in a safe environment. Doesn't matter if you're bone stock or highly modded. We need more evo's representing! There were only two of us out there for the morning heat but a crap ton of STI's.
