how hard is it to find one of manuals or a manual to upgrade your car. does anyone have any information on these? where can i find them how old would they be?

 

Autozone can order one for you, or ebay generally has 4 or 5 listed at a time. Autozone charges $17ish and ebay is anywhere from $5-20.

 

The haynes is a good reference to have when you are outside working on the car. However the FSM links will have the best info and the info is free.

 

Online FSMs link is in my sig line. Enjoy, save your money, take your laptop out to the shop with you.

 

no i have the haynes manual got it for free from a family friend. i was wondering about places where i could get a performance guide or something for a Fuel Injected 85 gs like cold air kits turbo kits to get more horse power out of the new motor not sure if i want turbo or nitrous inject it. but basically i need somewhere i can get information on where and how to install that kind of stuff.

 

The question is, When he is out in the shop with his laptop and wants to make notes on the page he is on. Does he use whiteout or a sharpie on the screen? LOL.

 

Nah, just get a thing of paper and a couple printer cartridges, then print the FSM, take it to kinkos and have the bind it into a book for you and you're good to go .

That is, if you understand the FSM...It's gibberish to me right now.

 

Until I publish my peformance book you will have to settle for the Search function. There are no published books on what you are looking for. Thats why we have been answering the same questions for years in this section.

There was someone that just did a thread with his CAI on his Se that is one of the best I have ever seen.
But a CAI is not going to get you real HP gains.
There is also a thread on Nitrous in the Archives.
And I hope you were refeering to a 85 GSL-Se because a Gs does not have F.I.

 

well i kind of but the gsl-se motor in my gs so i kind of have both.

 

man you old timers are high tec!!!!

 

huh??? you kinda have both? It's one or the other... carb or FI. I'm thinking it's probably more that you have a 13b in your FB. That doesn't mean it's FI, not only would it be a big project to convert a GS to run the GSL-SE fuel injection, it's counter productive. You'd be losing the benefit of the upgraded suspension, the LSD, the more preferable bolt pattern... etc. The point is that you have to understand that while we are all here to help, we don't have psychic abilities. So, with out pictures, or a detailed descrition it's hard for us to do so,and it can lead to you receiving bad information.

Also, as already mentioned, the search bar is your friend, there's a ton of information available if you look.

 

well I have a 13b 6 port motor I'm swapping into my gs. so i kind of have the best of both worlds. good suspension nice LSD. but I'm trying to find some kind of performance intakes or something i can do to get better flow out of the intake.

 

If you want power, do the intake(weber, holley) and exhaust. When the exhaust alone is done on the rotaries, a lot more power comes out.

 

I have a book called Mazda Rx-7 performance handbook. Its a great book, that covers all three 7 generations. It suggest what you should do for if your road racing, drag racing, street, etc. You can get it at a barnes and nobles Im pretty sure. I got mine as a gift, so not sure

 

Do you know if the '85 manual will be close enough for work on an '84 GSL? Specifically I am returning a car to stock that had all the pollution control removed and had racing beat carb and manifold installed.

 

^ Yes.
