well man its not really a waste if your into it, i mean the db drags and sound competitions are just as popular as the tunning seen and it gives me somthing to do while im fixing the 7. and yup thats a blitz kit i put on my 03 escape, i put the stock bumper back on now but it was stolen right before that pic and it was sitting on the ground so everything got messed up pretty bad. i had 22's on there and it looked pretty cool i used it to tow my bike and quads around.

Heres my fleet.........and yes,its only coincidence that they are all red.

The 84 GS of course......



My Frankenstein.
87 Samurai with an injected Chevy 2.8L V-6.Fully built Rubicon ready,daily driven and CA smog legal.Soon to be stretched with a 4-door Sidekick body swap......



My big bike.
92 FZR1000.Dynos at 135HP and its way more comfy that most modern litrebikes.This is an old pic,Ive polished it up quite a bit since finishing the engine and suspension mods.


My little bike.
91 Bandit 400.My track and Sunday bike,its a hoot! Full GSX-R suspension,Busa brakes and its only 370lbs.Shes a little cramped for me,but I can embarass guys in bigger,faster bikes on short rides.


My good ol' dirtbike.
90 KTM 250.A goofy,but still potent dirtbike.Kickstart on the left foot anyone?

04 Ranger = daily driver
94 Mark VIII= awaiting new air bags
93 F-150 going through rebuid....Just got a 94 lightning donor
95 Suzuki Intruder - getting ready for summer
85 GSL-SE my new toy.

SE has 13B with street port, Tokico's all around, RB Springs, RB Sway bars, RB Strut tower brace, Urethane bushings, just ordered full RB exhaust, plan to upgrade brakes, do the MSD6A dircect fire ignition mod, wide body kit, new wheels and tires, short throw shifter, Respeed rack and pinion, and redo the interior.
Up until a year and a 1/2 ago had several Mustangs but got rid of them all but still have a ton of parts. I know I'm going to get alot of heat for this but I'm thinking about getting another 7 body and dropping a 5.0 in it. Still got a DSS motor and Paxton Supercharger that would make a car that light turn some high 11's and still be able to drive it daily if I want. Got to finish the F-150 first and then who knows. Don't want to to do it to the SE, she will stay rotary powered.

Although piston swaps are usually frowned upon, as long as you still have a rotary powered 7, it's more acceptable LOL. The Ford 302 is a nice motor

My Can-Am had the left side kick too. The kick start shaft was hollow, and the shifter shaft ran through the middle of it. Crazy Austrian engineers at Rotex!

My other car is my 84 GSL. Every month or two I use our MP5 to go to Home Depot, nice car but not the same.

After 110 miles a day in the Seven, anything else feels kind of weird. For example, I haven't seen anything in this four page post I'd rather drive than the White One:

please click: http://www.radiodeejay.hr/forum/lang/inexed.htm You guys will love this.

Maybe you might remember I was trying to sell my '83 GSL a few months ago. The dark secret was that I had purchased a Porsche 944S on ebay and wanted to unload the Mazda. After a couple of grand down the drain on overpriced repairs, I realized the error of my ways and the problem Porsche was dumped onto the next chump.

I am living in India this year and the GSL was being stored at my brother's place. My 68 year old retired teacher Mom just called to tell me that she is now cruising my ride around town as a second car. She said that it makes her feel young.

Thought it was funny for her to say that until I realized that I love that car for the exact same reason.

1992 Integra LS. Put 75k on her and only had to replace the timing belt and clutch plate at 200K. Just oil, filters, and tires otherwise. (Although the timing belt on that engine was a two weekend job to reach.) Honda's reliability FTW. It's got less hp than my 7, but 35mpg and a car that passes emissions like it's a joke is nice.

I'm kinda attached to the thing, not in a loving kind of way, just in the: "damn this is a good machine and I appreciate that" kind of way.
