83 GSL daily driver
After being in storage for 3 years (military,) I've been using this as my daily driver, restoring and modifying as stuff breaks or wears out. About time for a paint job, but other than that she runs great. Had this car for 13 years now, here's a list of what I've done so far.
Removed Air Pump, Cruise, A/C, all emission control, fan clutch
Weber 45DCOE sidedraft carb
Rotary Shack Manifold
K&N Air Filter
Redline linkage, Fuel pressure regulator
Mikuni fuel pump
Magnacore Wires
MSD Blaster High Vibration coils
NGK BR7EIX plugs
Permacool Electric Radiator Fan, adjustable thermostat controller
Atkins 6-Rib pulley kit
Racing beat street port exhaust system
Racing Beat Springs, Sways, Strut tower bar
Koni Shocks
Energy Suspension poly bushings (EVERY SINGLE ONE!)
Moog ball joints (to those who say it can't be done)
Hawk HP Plus pads (front and back)
Powerstop drilled and slotted rotors (front and back)
Racing Beat Stainless brake lines, clutch line
Mazdatrix short shifter
Centerforce stage 2 clutch
Aluminum pedal pads (homemade)
Royal purple in the engine
Redline MT-90 in the trans and diff
Future plans:
Caspian Blue paint
Duraflex GP1 front bumper
Sarona skirts, rear bumper
4x100 wheel adapters, studs instead of lug bolts
Enkei PF01 wheels
Atkins engine rebuild and street port
Camden Supercharger
Rebuild trans, diff (bearings are whining)
Aluminum Flywheel
Aluminum Radiator, Silicone hoses
Reverse engineer radio/climate control face out of aluminum
Autometer gauges
Obviously, I'm quickly running out of bolt on mods, it's about time I got serious and painted her while the drivetrain gets freshened up.
Gotta find me a daily driver first..
