Don't get any better than an SE with the FI 13B replaced with a 12A.

Especially a low mileage ported 12A fed by a weber, vented by RB and lots of brake work to control all that excess HP.

You get the SE suspension without that girlyman fuel injection, a 12A instead of a 13B and a carb instead of FI, all total upgrades for sure.

And the stock goodies are a bonus.

You got any more pics?



Welcome to OGTA Evo! You need to scoot over here for a meeting sometime.

I don't have any more pics yet, I am going to take some tonight. I would love to come out to one of your meets. I would have to take the fb instead of the fd though. Ray, do you know Tom Turner aka speedturn on here? He is the gentlemen I bought the car from. He is racing his 79 at the Mitty coming up

I don't remember a Tom Turner, but the car looks familiar.

I think I bought some SE parts from its owner about 12 years ago when I was thinking of installing an SE suspension in the GSL.

Does he live in Lilburn?

Thanks to a certain someone, I picked up some rx8 seats for the vert yesterday glad to be able to keep improving this car week over week. This week picking up racing beat headers too, so I look forward to installing those as well.

Erica and I both had an AMAZING time at DGRR 2015. I learned so much about not only what my car is capable of handling, but just in general about the cars. Thanks so much for everyone's support throughout the weekend!

Ray, Tom Turners car was a baby blue FB that he races. He come over to look at my ignition one
year at the Mitty and we all talked. I guess he's faded from your memory.

Nice pictures of the group. Best time ever!

Yep, you were looking good this weekend Tim, nice work!

So why don't you come down to the Mitty in a couple weeks, we need a Commander for Camp Tim.

Tom Turner might even show up. Maybe even that Mike guy, or who knows, Robert?

If it was in "a couple of weeks" I would try but its this weekend!!! Besides I have to
stay home and brew more beer, I'm clean out now.

I see why you think that because Jeremys thread says May 25 & 26 but its April 25 & 26.

I don't think they'll let you in Tim unless you have a trunk full of brew.

Better put off the Mitty til next year.

Unfortunately I won't be able to make the May meet, so I vote for you to bring the FB. I want to see your FD, so bring that on the June meet.

If you're seriously bringing your new FB to the May OGTA meeting on May 5th Martin, I will definitely be there!

I want to see this car!. And oh yeah, it would be nice to meet you too. We don't get too many folks from out Alabama way, just a couple stray state cops.

I would like to make sure and thank Ray, Mike, Tim, Tommy and Erin for one of the best trips yet.

I had a ball!!!!

Special Thanks for Tim btw.
He not only donated a set of waffles for SA #2, but also, and this is the best part and shows what kind of folks the group is, he took the time to perform his patented waffle refurbishment to the wheels as shown in Rays pic above, which makes them look brand new.

I love you guys!!!!

Cheryl's 82 GSL and that red SA was mint.

I hoping I can find a driver for my FB for DGRR 2016. It needed water seals and didnt have time to rebuild and shake it down prior to DGRR this year so i drove my FD.

Evo KOA - so you have a FD and FB? If so awesome. I'm around Nashville area so let me know if you ever make it up this way.
