Hello, after 11 years of ownership!
« on: January 03, 2015, 12:34:14 pm »
Hi all,

Just a quick re introduction and a bit about my story so far...

I've owned my G40 since I was 20 (now 31!), spent a lot of time on it but lost interested. It's been sitting in my parents garage looking sorry for it self.

After having fun with a few jap cars, mainly EK9 and a JDM DC2, I've made it my New Years resolution to get it running by summer.

So the dc2 will be up for sale in a few weeks and I need to knuckle down and crack on!

Things have changed quite a bit since I was into it, no more psd and I can see the PPP has got some great stuff.

Are there any other people that can help with g40 tuning?

My first steps are to take the remaining parts of the engine out, get some chassis strength going as I'd hate it do go after all the work that will go into it.

I'll post some questions in the engine section as it seems that turbo conversions are something I should consider even though I've spent a packet on g la der tuning parts.

Look forward to contributing in the future! Wish me luck!

Regards,

Dipesh
