pics of freshly detailed 85 gn with turbo ls swap... figured i would post this in here as well as the multimedia section as it fits the bill here well being turbo and all. finally got around to detailing it and calling it done for now so i snapped some finished pics.

Ive always loved the way GN's look, and with a turbo ls, its simply amazing!

Im actually blown away by that, shoot me if you'd like, ive never really been a fan of the GN, but that is a sharp looking car...
Guess my tastes are changing (getting better?) as i age...
Fantastic job, she is beautiful!
Any More details on the build?

there is another wastegate on the other header as well i had to run 2 to keep the boost creep down...the coils are on the stock brackets but i made some brackets that let me put the brackets up the valve cover another 1/2" inch or so to pull the wires closer to the head. the wires are custom ones from Firecore50.com. ill have to take a closer pic tomorrow if i can of them

looks great, I dont have the heart to do it to my 87GN, but my friend has a 85GN that we are planning to do. I also have swapped one into my 1981 Turbo T/A. Very nice.
