hi all just picked up a old gsx1100et but it diddent come with any carbs or air box and what i need to know is what carbs are the best to go for and will other airboxs fit (katana/efe? ect) or or is it easy to rejet standard carbs and run pods?

You need a set of BS34 mikuni carbs, and if possible pick up the air box. That bike has a two piece air box , air filter system. Running pods is a possibility, but you will need a jet kit and be ready to spend alot of time getting it dialed in. You are better off with the air box IMO, some will argue.

yeah thats what i throught about the carbs and rejetting for pods but as for the airbox will other airboxs fit as i cant find a standard gsx1100et box ive added a pic of one thats for sale cheap from a gsx1100e and wondered if that would fit?

I have a couple of sets of 34s. I'll build you a set with a Dynojet kit and throw in a set of K&N pods for $350 plus shipping.Comment

Air boxes and carbs come up for them all the time on Ebay - there's loads out there. Watch out for the rubbers being hard on the air boxes (a new set will cost a bout ?40) and the RH chrome side panel being rusty.
Bank on stripping the carbs and fitting new O rings - about ?20ish from a Robert Barr (a GSR member). Watch out also for split diaphragms - they're not cheap.79 GS1000S
