85 RX7 GS , Now GSL-SE Engine& rear end W/Turbo Project
Hey Guy I got this little project from my Cousin In Chicago 3 weeks ago . He has had this car for a few years , he had a 12a bridgeport , then street port then a 13b ported Carb w 650 , Now a 13b GSL-SE Engine Turbo with the GSL-SE Rear end. Is not a big turbo but it does the job. It also had a aeromotive a1000 that burned out not good. inter cooler of course, fuel regulator it has a Holley 750 marine Carb. It had some nice Weld Racing Rims but sold rims to brother so I can get car here to Florida . Has some Racing seats cheap ones but they will do for now , some Racing harness , He remove OMP witch I would of prefer him keeping but now I'm going to look into premix . I will post Pictures soon. I'm going to be updating and chaging some stuff around not much since I still have my RX3 thats my main Project and my RX8 that's my daily so I can't spend to much in changes just little upgrades. Not trying to be cheap but I have 5 cars plus my wifes car and just trying to spread the love lol . Now the questions hoping you guys can help/
One question, He has stock Spark Plugs NGK's . Should I keep them the same or upgrade them.
second question premix ? so many choices
for now I think that's it im Buying a new fuel pump and the one im getting will be the Bosch 044 external. I havent really mess with car since I'm working on my 2001 Audi A4 Quattro putting a new clutch in trying to finish car so I can sell it and get a few things for my cars and rest for bills.
hope you guys can help thanks

Those apex seals are so short! I bet they were ready to pop out of the groove at any minute. Good thing you broke it down to build it before the housings were trashed.

It started right up that's the crazy thing . But blow by . Pressure was going into Wngine and blowing the pressure out of the oil filler . I found 4 side seals stuck finally came out . Not to order parts from Pineapple Racing . 👍
