Dammit! Looks like a great day! Wish i was there!!

If Bern reads this, flick me an email mate

 

I need 5...more...posts...

 

Awesome pics!!! any more?

 

Woo hoo! Those are the same fog lights I have.

Nice looking car, I think it would look even better without the strips.

Excelent pics!!! I especially like that red FB with the Panasport wheels. That's sort of what I'm looking to do with my car eventually (specifically the bright red paint, and the flat black air dam). I also hope to do some other, more performance-driven bodywork (out of fiberglass) like rear diffusers/low pressure chambers, and such.

 

sweet pics! Very nice and awesome. Yes, do you guys have anymore?

Looks like you all had a blast! Wish I coulda gone.. lol

 

The red one with the 17" wheels is mine,GS model with SE suspension,40 offset on the wheels, plus some machine work on the wheels to get them to tuck without rubbing... also the white one in the background,that one is set up old school with 15" enkei wheels.....we got there late so i could'nt show the cars, o-well next year maybe !!!!

 

Heaps of very nice cars there. Looked like alot of fun.

 

i like the looks of this one myself. sorry couldn't resist.

 

thats disgusting!!!!!

 

Im glad all of you enjoyed it! Mine was the 1st gen parked between the buildings with a gen 2 and 3. The red one pictured here is Mel's from San Diego. I had a small hand in its restoration. Yes, he did a fine job of it.
I wish I could have spent some time talking to those of you that were there but keeping things going smoothly takes some doing.

See you all at SS6!!!

 

SS6 when? and can we say LAGUNA????????? id drive out 4 that 1

 

even id drive out for laguna

 

Me too.

 

yeah it was pretty bitching, not very many "modified" turbo 2 motors in first gens. berns was about the most modified turbo i saw there, next year its been said to be at laguna. hopefully some of you turbo swap bastards will make it out next year. ill have to get my pictures put on a cd and upload them, i got all the old school rotarys 8.9 sec rx2

 

You still have it? It thought it was broken down, then for sale, then it wasn't, then it was...etc.

 

oh yeah i still have it. i pulled the motor and trans. motor will be getting some 2 spring 3mm apex seals and of course my badly needed rotor oil seals. i will still be running the same t-04 turbo but might have a differnt manifold made. also might ditch the 2 webber down drafts for a stand alone unit. right now the damn car is sitting in storage costing me some loot just to sit there. i hope to have it in the body shop for a new paint job and get the engine bay painted by march. then right after that the motor will get done. where is laguna at? i should be able to make it to 7 stock next year, i have a 2week vacation comming to me.

 

My TII powered 1st gen was there. It was the white one parked next to mels red GSL-SE in the pics above. Its pretty well modified. Stock 89-91 engine, 89-91 turbine with 60-1 HiFi compressor, RB downpipe 3in exhaust all the way back,FMIC,Haltech E6k running 4 720s, RB light flywheel and an ACT HD clutch. SS5 was my 1st gens first trip to go over 5 miles from my house we got a lot of off boost tuning done on the way home. I did not want to drive my 3rd gen because I knew from last year there would be a ton there. Next year I should have 1st gen painted and ready for SS6.

 

let me know when you guys need another engine delivered,, next time you can go with us to mexico!!!!!.... p/s let your buddy know i have that 12a turbo stuff ready when he wants it!!!

 

defprun,
Thank you, that's my FB. Not my old SS3 winner.
Well after owning 4 1st gens over the last 10 years, it's about time I got on the forum.
Nothing too special other than it being as clean as can be for an '84 with a 'newer' engine..less than 282,000 miles for sure. Custom IHMC strut tower brace, full RB exhaust system, Panasport Pro Rally wheels.
I would opt for having a Mariah or Pacific airdam but I can smack curbs and cones with that one without worry (: . Factory rear spoiler not on yet and other things like louvers and diffuser. and Mark, who needs a job? :P
About that silver car, I spoke with the owner briefly and it's a Mazda Comp GTU bodykit and custom turbo with a reversed header looking intake runner.
Cheers,
Mel

 

I am curious about what that means. Do you mean that it had a "header style" custom enxhaust manfiold to a turbo?

Kinda like this one?

 

there were four separate pipes each going into a respective intake port running over the top of the engine and collecting into a single large pipe right before the turbo outlet, looked light a 4-banger header for an intake..strange looking but functional

 

sorry typo.. looked LIKE (:
hard to explain, hope it helps

SD 84 SE

 

i'd tow my 7 to laguna seca, but only if we can drive the cars out on the track at full speed, with some strict passing rules. and take people for rides too of course.

This is it right?
