Hi, I picked up a 83 gsl for 2800 U.S in the outskirts of the chicago suburs. Was that a good deal?? Well anyways i also picked up the 86 GXL for 300 bucks(95000mi but crap body). the 83 is really clean so I would part the other car if it was worth it.
Has anyone changed over the adjustuble suspension??? Would like to know I have so time on my hands and some friends that are good at swaping parts.

thanks.

 

hey i dont kno much about rx7's becaus im am a noob but i am gettin an 83 also..not sure what model...has a/c..if that helps....but mine only has 29k original miles..an im gettin it for 2500 an people are tellin me thats too high...but i dont think so...so when i get the money im buying it from my uncle...the one an only owner...an prolly doing alot of bolt on mods...any way do u think ur 83 is pretty fast stock?...sorry i couldent anwser your question

 

The suspension swap would take a lot of custom work. I don't believe it is something that will bolt on. You can use the 13B engine from the GXL.

 

both are decently priced. i'm getting an 85 gsl for 600. anyways, i think you can switch alternators and it you want swap the engines. not sure how much money and time it will take buts its possible. not sure about anything else since im also a newbie.

hey.... he posted it before me ^^^

 

take the coils for 2GCDFIS and alternator

 

Its really not that fast, gets 20 miles a gallon on a good day and eats oil. ON the other hand it looks cool and really fun for drifting. 2500 Might be a little high for a reg rx7 but the GLS is worth 3000 at least in good condition. It has leather and a nice system for a 83 (8 track player sold separately). Also if your gona spend 2500 I would go with a 84 gls-se if you like 1st gens body since it comes with a 13b motor and is easyer to swap a newer 13b later on along with about 30 more hp.
