Iam new to the forum looks like a great place, my rx-7 is a 1979 limted edition bought from Mid - Ohio Imports in Columbus Ohio. I am the orginal owner it has 19,600 miles, I installed a BAE turo-charger from Pacific-Turbo in 1983 I love my rx-7 its a member of our family and lives in its own section of a three car garge.

 

Well, I know I have an SE.

Putting a new motor in it this week, this one actually.

13B yay.

 

84 GSL-SE, 160k miles. Well used.

The fb mailing list has a high proportion of -SE owners too, for the same reasons as previously stated, IMO.

 

well, i have runiing right now is a 87 se and a 85 gsl-se, and many parts cars!

 

wow my spelling sux!

 

Me three, but I like my GS... even if it is beat to hell and back. I'll make her beautiful again.

 

1985 gs 1985 gsl-se 1979 s anybody want a se its 1500

 

All I've had is GSLs

I currently have an '84 GSL

I had an '85 GSL paid $650 for it, sold it for $1600

Man I love these cars way too much.

This relationship with my car jusst can't be healthy...

 

ive owned 3 a gs, a gls, and a gls-se, but the gls with the gls-se engine in its the only one worth talking about... as for the gls-se, i found in it the buy and sell!

 

Proud owner of a '79 GS model, fully loaded with all options except sun roof. It's a good thing too, because I wouldn't fit with my helmet on if I had the roof and my FC seats installed. My '79 is a bit of a Franken-rex, with a '81 electronic dizzy, '86 FC seats, '81 GSL axle and LSD and '81-'85 alloy wheels. The odo reads 105980 miles.

 

I have a GSL-SE... 79K miles, purchased last year from the original west coast owner. All original: No power steering, mirrors that match the white body, glass roof, no leather. I'm planning to add white powder coated wheels next year.

 

mine started life as a 79 sport gt( limited edition) and it is very hard to belive there are 13 of them on this board and only 8 83 le. the 79 le had all options + a dealer sport pkg duck tail rear spoler and a 79 only imsa style air dam so come clean guys who realy has the 79 le? I realy cant call mine that now with the pacific body pkg differant supen,dash,seats, 88ae wiring,jdm engine 13b turbo, and lots and lotsof other upgrades. or wait may be I can its a 79 very limited edition.

 

wow I replied to this 8-09-03 and it comes up as new today 9-20-03 go figure?

 

I got 2... 83 GS, and 83 limited ed. The limited ed is what I use as a daily driver.

 

i have the 84 gslse got i for 850. i bought it 2 months ago and still dont have plates on it yet. each time i go to get it inspected the thang breaks first the bin rust then one injector broke know i have to rebuild the the motor

 

Mine's an '85 GSL limited edition (ie: NOT 13B-powered, but with all GSL options plus power steering. This one's originally from California so no headlight washer jets. (Even the SE in the US didn't have these--- only in Canada, Australia, Europe...)
My other three were '81 and '82 GX's. (only the '82 and '83 actually had the GX badge, but the '81 was identical otherwise) That's what GSL's were called in Canada until the '84's came out.
At the time they were the top of the line 7 (no SE yet) and came standard with sunroof, washer jets, LSD, power everything, and 4-wheel discs (solid at rear). Only items considered optional were leather and air. Power steering was not available until '84 (and then only in the states) as far as I know.

 

i got an 82 gs bought last month. i try not to turn it into a daily driver but i just cant help it. runs really well though. planning on a gsl rear end next year. and whatever else i can think of after that.

 

Hey over here in oz we just got S1, 2, 3, all with different optionss. No gsl-se or anything, you guys get all the plusses over there. In my expierience, every 1 is different cos evry1 modifys them to some degree. only badges that are on them all are MAZDA & Rx7. thats it.

Well, I would love to have a GSL-SE, or even a GSL- but my hieght (6ft 5) makes having an RX7 wihtout a sunroof important for me to even fit. I looked for 2nd gen RX7 SEs/GTus without sunroofs, just to see if I could fit because I know I can't fit in sunroof equiped models, but never even found one to try.
I have been looking for a year for a 1st/2nd gen RX7 with no sunroof and in very good mechanical shape and in my price range (under 2k$) and not embarrasing to be seen in. They are very hard to find. But even with the extra headroom, I need to watch for high speed bumps- I hit my head againt the headliner.

Just curious, on 1st gens were sunroofs standard on GSLs and GSL-SEs? Every one I have ever seen had one, so I was wondering.

hey Im 6' 5" and i fit in my S2 81 without any problems, (smokin weed didnt help) No sunroof, Thats why i bought an Rx7 cos they accomidate for long legs.

 

i dont know about all the pluses. the 12at available in japan(dont know about anywhere else) sounds really nice. but you are right, everybody modifies it anyway. cant leave anything well enough alone.

 

All of the GSL's and GSL-SE's came with sun roofs, but the optional smoked glass roof panel provides more approx. 1 inch (2-1/2) cm more headroom than the stock uphoulstered one does.
This may still be a problem if the top of your head touches right on the perimiter of the sunroof frame, since the clearance provided by the glass panel only extends to its own dimensions.
I wonder if any of the aftermarket racing seats provide a lower seating position...

 

84 gsl all stock but not for long, i finally got some money comeing in.
