New Guy from Tampa

Hello everyone. As you guessed, my name is Jeff. I live in Tampa Florida. I've been into cars for quite some time, but this is my first rotary powered machine. I had several 240's before this. I picked this up for an amazing deal and promptly traded the 240 for a daily driver. It is a 1987 Turbo II. It is stock for the most part. Just did a few mods for reliability. I did solid mounts as well. I put Greddy 720cc injectors, Greddy BOV, Greddy Boost gauge and controller. Rtek 1.8 ECU chip. Walboro fuel pump. Fluidyne radiator. E-fan from a police interceptor. Pushes enough air to lift a Cessna. LOL. Apex'i N1 Evolution exhaust and 3 inch down pipe. I have big plans for the car and the parts are starting to trickle in. The coilovers and JDM visors arrive saturday. I also have some seats and harnesses to go into the car. I am going to a fabricator this sunday for a quote on a cage. I plan to gut the interior and paint it to match the outside. I am keeping the dash and center console and I am going to wrap them in Black Alcantara. I am in desperate need of nice wheels, but it will all come in time. I will keep you posted of all mods I do. The suspension and all the bushings will come first, followed by the chassis and the interior, and the motor I will save for last because it runs soo good as it is. Well here are some pics.






New parts.

Thank you. I plan on going big turbo in the future with a FD UIM and a front mount or maybe a V-mount like I had on my 240.
