That picture is after one week of owning the car.

Ohhhhh NOW that's it I’m startin' something, BRING IT!!!! Hahahah JK .
I wanted to show a better pic of his engine bay that one is to far away.
I can't even talk my engine bay is super fugly. It might look ok from the pic I posted but the previous owner did not take a lot of care in filling the brake fluid nicely. Draw your own conclusions there. But hey you can see a side shot of my car in Super Street but it is over shadowed by the CYM FD .

Yo,
Damn kids, quit fighting! We catch enough **** from the turbo crowd without any GTUs infighting to add to it! *grin*
Anyways, Wozzoom, your cars looks sweet! It looks like the Blaze Red faction of Team GTUs is beating out the Noble White and Brilliant Black...Heh.

Here is mine:
89, white, 102992 miles, original engine
Cone intake, RB down pipe and silencer, straight pipe (95 dB)
Two questions, a) how I can find out what factory options my 89GTUs came with? needed for SCCA SoloII stock rule. b) I know Toyota genII MR2 allowed to use crash bolts to gain neg camber duo to Toyota service bulletin said dealer can use these bolts to correct alignment for non-competition purpose, does Mazda service bulletin mention similar method of correct an alignment?

Yo,
Ben, the only real options I know for the car was cruise control and air conditioning. I think that's about it.
You bought Blake Qualley's car, right? That was a hell of a deal. Glad to see you are autocrossing it.
You might want to check out the Race Car section of this forum, there are a lot of SCCA guys there.

Yo,
Exactly! *grin* Either drive the **** out of it or clean it. Pretty simple choices!
Heh.

Actually, I was thinking of starting a website, something like teamgtus.org, but I don't really have time at the moment. Wouldn't it be cool, though?

GTUs is mean to be raced, isn't it why Mazda made it at the first place: to celebrate their GTU domination in US racing back then.
I notice you have a RB struct bar, did you noticed an improvement after you installed it? I was debating whether I should go with RB or Mazdatrix bar/better torsion stiffness. I am hesitating to drill two holes at the firewall as I want only bolt-on upgrades to my GTUs. You know why.
Thanks
Ben
