New Guy
Hi All! I'm new to the forum, an owner of an '87 GN with 22k miles, and considering upgrades. I've installed a cold air kit and purchased the following:
-Walbro fuel pump -Accufab FPR -Racetronix wire kit -Heated O2 sensor -Valve cover breathers -Scanmaster -RJC Powerplate -Fuel pressure gauge and considering a TT chip & Hooker 2.5" cat-back system. Anything else I should consider at this point without going too overboard? Thanks, Mike

I may would add an adj. wastegate. Oh, and a new set of back tires for when you burn the old ones off
 Enjoy!

Actually, now that you mention it, I already bought one of the NOS adj. wastegates from NOS4GN. I assume that'll be good enough? As for the tires, I'm hoping to do the retro work over the winter and tear-up the tires in the spring!

For now, I'm looking to get the car into the high-12 to low-13 range with simple, reversible mods that keep the car looking stock. Another thing I had in mind was getting a gnx-type dash, but it appears the only one that sells these on the market is Poston's? Do you know anyone else that offers these? I'd like to get one that has the dash applique like the gnx.

With some sticky tires - your car will go high 12's/low 13's w/15-17psi. Add some octane or alky + boost - and it'll go even faster.

Nocooler said it. Get some mickey thompson drag radials and alky with the stuff you have. Could put you mid/low 12's. Look at my sig, pretty much the same on a stock motor. Ive run a 12.02@113 and dont have alky(yet)
