Is it listed in your sig? If not, what is it? a GSL or SE?

If it's a GSL, what are the wheels? I like em!

SIX TWO SLEEPER 12-02-01 07:39 PM

Enkei's, fit GSL-SE.

White84SE 12-02-01 07:58 PM

Yup... Enkei RS-E's... got them on mine.. 16x7.. mine has spacers on the front, dunno if I need them, never get a chance to drive the car with them on... Max, what size tires are you running? Any problems with rubbing?

Max7 12-02-01 08:00 PM

Its an 85 GSL-SE to replace my 84, swapping most of the goodies over to it :)
The rims are Enkei RS-E's with 205/45/16's no rubbing with Eibach coils and Tokico Illuminas

:evilgrin:

seriously, that one looks really great! are those your old tires/rims? i forgot what rims you had but the tires look familiar :)

(edit: wanna hook me up with some of the uncared-for ones? that way i can start fresh all over again...)

Ryan "RX-7" Radio 12-02-01 09:12 PM

I'm proud to say that I am one of the main reasons for Max buying another GSL-SE!

Seriously though, Max almost bought a GSL-SE with 30k miles on it, and fortunatly he didnt. This car is twice as nice as that car was! This car is BEAUTIFUL!!! NICE CHOICE!






'84 GSL-SE (Max7's Old one)
'86 LOADED!

Oh, way to go Max7.....
 
Just what we need around this area......another freakin red Rx7.

Just kidding!

Sweet car. I look forward to seeing it in the spring.

Mike

Max7 12-02-01 09:32 PM

Yah, was trying to find a Silver7 but none that were in the condition I was looking for,
the Red is growing on me, its looks VERY sweet.

Peejay you read my mind :) and yes, they are my old rims and tires :)
actualy I doubt I will go bridgeport. 300rwhp will be enough for me.
I'll just have to wait till next winter for the turbo.
since this years budget went to a new car to put it in.
But you never know, my good friends over at Sevenspeed can build me a nice bridgeport turbo, but I have no clue what to do with 450+ rwhp...... cept get a Tire stores credit card.

Felix Wankel 12-03-01 03:35 AM

Man thats a nice car. It looks a lot better than the black one. Especially since it has complete front fenders ;)

RS-E'S ARE DISCONTINUED DAMMIT!!!!!!! I wanted a set when I had an -SE :cursing:

SJB-GSL-SE 12-03-01 06:48 AM

Hey thats my car! I hope you have fun with it Mark. It was a sad day to see it go.

Hey guys if you looking for some sweet rims I have a set of BBS RKs in the classified section.

rxtasy 12-03-01 07:24 AM

hmmm, that car would look great with a special intake! i know just where you can get ...... oh wait a minute! you already got it.....

SEND ME SOME PICS WHEN IT'S DONE!!!!!

Denny 12-03-01 08:55 AM

.....So I'm now in hot pursuit. Party lights flashin', siren set on whelp, and I'm slidin' all over the road in the snow....Go away boy, you bother me...
Jeepers Max, what the Hell! Can't you see It's story-time. What is it now, anyway....
Aww, shoot! Is that your new car? Yuh damn showoff! It isn't bad enough that you've got one of the prettiest engine bays I've ever seen on a street car, now you've gotta find a new little hoss that's lovelier than a Mountain Sunrise!
Well, let's get picky...Where's the GSL-SE emblem? Where's the rubber door bumper guards?....Aww, it ain't no use. Haven't got the heart or the drive to be critical of this little Redbird...
I guess you're gonna now want money just to park next to yuh....

Pushin up the Stetson with one finger and long whistle...
Denny, from the 'ol corncrib...:D

Max7 12-03-01 11:11 AM

Yes, it was a happy and a sad day, happy to have a new 7, sad to see you sell it after 8 years of marriage to her.
I forgot how much fun it was to drive a 7, its been a few months!
Already made my shopping list, and checked it twice! Santa is going to be good to me this year!

TheAMAZINGNorad 12-03-01 05:07 PM

Where the hell is the KEYHOLE. What ya do, climb through the hatch ??????????

setzep 12-03-01 05:50 PM

WOW, wish my car looked that nice! But I suppose you didn't pay $625 for yours;) So your going turbo? Going to turbo charge the n/a 6pt or go the T2 route like me?

Oh yeah what happened to teh black one? Was it that rust that made you give up on her?

Max7 12-03-01 06:47 PM

TheAMAZINGNorad - Its has keyless entry :)

setzep - yah, it was the rust that made me sell her. :(
Ryan has her now, and has fixed most of the rust!
no more thumping rear end from the 4 puck clutch!!

and yes. full T2 route, 3rd gen intake, Haltech, FMIC and BOOST!
was going to do that this winter, but had to get another car.
