I have 2 of these in my garage, very low miles on them. I'd let them go for $1000

Yeah, but to use them you have to change your headlight fluid and put winter air in the tires...or risk catastrophic muffler failure due to the hot air.

I had to add some blinker fluid to the REPU today. Get them working again. The thing that concerns me most is the headlight fluid though. It needs to be changed.

Thanks guys. Ive been looking to replace my bearings for quite some time. I just put my order in.

So its supposed to be the new bearing.. But does it come with seals and muffler grease?

My transmission capacitance diode is next on the list. Id like to follow up with getting my continuum spur clutch adjusted.

Any one have any experience with these? Are they easy to work on?

I've been using those resonator bearings for years, worth every penny.

What I'm waiting for is a decent aftermarket OCD, to replace the factory installed units on the 84/85 GSLs. You just can't find those anymore.

Atkins, are you listening?

I called 034 and I have great news to report. they make adapter kits for the Rx-7. until we get 200 owners committed though, the adapter kits are an extra $1,200. if we get the 200, then it's just $1,190.
