Newbie with a GN
Looking to take my mostly street/strip oriented GN to a more well rounded street car. Gone are the 90/10's, and sway bar delete, in went QA1 coilovers in the front, 36mm sway bar, poly front end rebuild, boxed lowers in the rear and a giant rear swaybar (probably too big but was added to launch straight). The car should be back from paint this week, then looking to notch the frame, and throw some 18's on it (Chicanes most likely). Still need to figure out some sort of coilover set up for the rear (any ideas?).
Looking to make it handle as well as possible while working on a teachers salary. (also should still be able to cut 1.5-1.6 60' times
)
Ran 11.42 @118 with a leaky HG, last time out.
Here is a pick from last week before they started wet sanding and buffing.

Pretty sure its got a 10 sec pass in it as it sits, but planning on getting a new billet wheel double ball bearing turbo that should put another hundred hp to the wheels and should easily push it well into the 10 second zone this winter.
