Picked this up about a week ago. It's a 85 GSL with full SE suspension. 13B original motor with only 40k miles on it. Chassis has 119k on it. Right now stock port on the motor, going street port or 74' spec port soon. MSD blaster coils, Weber 48DCOE fully tuned by RotaryShack, RB headers, RB Y-Pipe presilencer, Turbo-flow Race muffler. Lot's more to come.. more to list. I will try to get more pictures up in day time.

 

Another GSL with full SE suspension, though I'm still running a 12a in mine.

 

Yea. I love that this one has no sunroof, nice and light

 

Yeah, I've got the sunroof, but I'm not complaining, its mostly a daily driver as it is. Its my first rotary, and, I sure hope its not my last.

 

Clean and good looking 7, but I'm confused. The only stock 13B in a 1st gen came in the GSL-SE, 84-85, and all of them were FI. So what was really changed,? Was the FI swapped for a carb setup, the easiest, or was it a 12A GSL that had a carb 13B and the SE suspension swapped in? Either way, how do you plan on getting it passed the CARB restrictions to tag it?

Since it has no sunroof, it's neither a GSL-SE or a GSL, both of which came stock with sunroofs. The S model came with no sunroof, so that's most likely what the car started out as. If it doesn't have a power hatch release, power fuel door release or power mirrors, then it's an S model for sure. Some S models had power mirrors and fuel door, and a power hatch. As with all 7s, any of these options could have been added at a later date My widebody started out as an S and has everything except power windows, which I may add, but the sunroof is aftermarket.

 

nice. i dont know how the heck you plan on passing emissions with that thing though. are the 5&6 ports wired open or functional?

no air filter?

 

My mistake, you would be correct in this case being that it is an "S" model. It does have no sunroof and also doesnt have a power hatch release. I believe that it was FI and once we got it we put on my weber, not sure they exact details though my mechanic was working on it for about a week before it made it to me. As far as I know, the guy owned a GSL-SE and this S model, the SE was wrecked so he swapped the suspension and whatever else over to this one. In terms of getting it to pass smog, it's already taken care of is the most I can say

 

ah looks good. He should be fine without a filter for awhile, I have a sidedraft mikuni with no filter on it and my buddy before me had it on for 3 years racing with no air filter. I plan to get one though just to make sure.

 

looking good!

 

4 port or 6 port?

 

If its original motor.. i think its 4 port

 

Read the thread and catch up noob, its not the original motor, lol

 

Thanks mike

 

This would be correct. The carb that's on there now is mine that I had before I purchased the car. I'm not sure what carb was on it before but most likely the stock one.

 

13bs never came from the factory carb'd i'm pretty sure

 

Come on now Twink, you know better. The 74-78 13Bs had Hitachi carbs.
