I have been working on this car for a little over a year and I no where near done. But at least she is drivable now. I got her for 250.00 with an overheating engine. After selling a couple parts that were on her header and airfilter she costs 160.00. I took out the 85 engine and dropped in a 80 that I had in the closet. I love the rotary engines cause how many others will take up a little area in the closet. Apon disassembling the old engine I found the intake orings had had better days. Now that engine is in the closet waiting for a port and rebuild job. I just wanted to show what I started with and where I'm at now. At this stage I have about $1900.00 in the car as you see it. add 95.00 for the item at the end.


This is almost what I started with after the engine swap





Here I am now as of this afternoon.

And wouldn't you know it I found this last night and had to have it $95.00 for the kit and the ****. Dont know how I feel about the shift **** yet

 

I would love to see your car sometime.
I am in NOVA for breaks and during the summertime.

BTW Ive got an 84 SE that is currently recieving a streetported motor with S5 rotors ect. from Kevin Landers.

where can i get a short shifter for 95 bucks?

 

yeah yeah where

 

looking good!!

 

Very nice

 

seanrot, are those work fins i see??

 

good job on my old front bumper! FORKIN looks sweet as hell! i hope to have mine on the road this weekend!!! YIPEEEEE

 

sorry guys, your probably stuck lookin on ebay.

with what little conections I have i get to shop here http://search1.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/...ale=0jp&mode=1 a new one goes for about 150.00 but after shipping its about 190.00.

 

if they are, im not sure. what your talking about??????



YEah it sure does it still needs work but you have to be damn close to see it at least 5 feet. I think I did a good job of replacing the lost and ripped out material.

After looking at the bumper in flat black im thinking the rest off the car might look really mean with it.



Thanks for all the help, not to sound like a sappy romance movie, but it wouldnt be here with your help. I have to eat some cheese now

 

i'm talking about the rims

the look a lot like mine's which are Work Fins.. old school!



i like the front end also... kinda reminds me of 2 of my 1st gen's



nice car!

 

Nope I dont think they are work fins. Mine are Volk Racing 3 pcs front wheel weighs 11 lbs, shipped from Japan. They are old though they were manufacture in 1984. With no curb rash here are a couple close ups. The red one is the look I'm going after. Very Nice hope you dont mind if I copy you .

 

hey seanrot,
that red is sweet!
I like that front end do you like it?im thinkin about orderin one.

 

What is the exact color of red?

 

Yeah, I like it and the way it mounts is really nice. If you like body kits its one of the better ones. I should be fixing that header panel this weekend. Think Ill add that to the to do list.

 

i 4got.. but it's easy to find
