I'd rather pour sand in my engine than mount a Fram filter. Go with Wix, AC Delco or Purolator.

Being a purist, I prefer GSL-SEs that have no irreversable mods. They're worth more that way. But yours is one fine looking machine and I'm guessing it's faster than stock. Clean looking engine bay too. Congrats.

Nice car! So, you've ripped out the fuel injection and put in the Weber seup, eh? Has the performance improvement been worth the cost and effort? Have you made any other mods?

Real nice job, nice and simple. I have an 85 SE and

Keep up the good work.

yeah overall the weber swap gave me a really noticeable ammount of horsepower, and i can still pass emissions. thats my only mod for right now, my cross-drilled and slotted rotors come in on monday, and clutch system soon. any opinions on what i should do next?

Considering that emissions are an issue in your state getting rid of the cats is not an option. But depending on whether or not they require all three cats to be present you could still get a header and freer-flowing cat to free up more hp, as well as a freer-flowing muffler. Rotaries respond very well to exhaust mods.
