NC NC/PR rotary rookie intro

hello all, i joined a while back but never introduced myself.
I am Richard, born and raised in Puerto Rico.
I have been living in the States for 8 years now, currently living in North Carolina due to me being stationed in Ft. Bragg. I am a soldier but in my spare time i love to work with cars.

I currently own two 1st gens and i am about to pick up another one soon.
I love these cars, i have been building pistons engines for a couple of years but started messing around with rotaries about a year ago, I fell in love with the sound, feel and power of the rotaties. they remind me of back home.

here are a couple of pics of my babies.

1985 GSL-SE 13b sixport stock motor/tranny, RB header, proform e-fan, Ground control front COs and RE-speed rear COs. 15x8 xxr 501s

when i got her


building coilovers

now




and 1985 gsl-se with a Bridge ported 12A , rb header, rb intake mani, holley blue Fuel pump, holley 600 carb, holley fpr. fun car
when i got her


cleaned up the bay and added the MSD coil packs


i am going to add a proform e-fan and i am in the process of building a set of budget (ebay ) coilovers for the front, if everything goes as planned they will be around $70 coilovers LOL. we will see, is just an experiment. I will also be painting her and adding some good looking wheels.



and this is me messing around with a 12a


this is the other 1st gen i am thinking of picking up gsl-se stock everything

and maybe this 2nd gen shell



awesome site guys, looking forward to make some good friends!
