Super Rotary NEWB from seattle.

Hey all,

Im Brian

New to the site. New to Mazda and new in general to rotary. I picked up my FB just the other day. I traded my 78 corolla straight across for it. He is a GSL-SE and boy do i love it. I have fallen in so much love with it that no matter what happens i don't think ill be getting rid of it.

The car has been named RICKY SPANISH...(for any of you American Dad fans) After the trade was made and i made it public to my friends. Most all of them were just like WHYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?! and has been getting me all sorts of fun flack. So thats how the car got the name lol.

The car pulls nics and hard. Feels great. It has that weird little rare idle issue that im trying to address. Where it dives perfectly fine and no issues then when you put in the clutch the RPMs drop almost all the way to zero. Luckily mine does not shudder stutter or act up luckily. Just need to get it fixed soon so its no longer a bothersome issue to me.

Mods that are already on.
Full Beat Racing exhaust ( headers back)
Racing beat stainless oil cooler lines
h&r loweing springs
bilstein shocks

Well below are some pics of the car as it sits right now. It does have its dings here and there and some paint issues as it was a respray from previous owner.

First to get it running tip top lol. Gotta mess with my throttle stop screw just cant figure out the jam nut size.

Well in my head my plan is as of right now to lower it a nice stance on coilovers. Then get the right set of wheels. and make it a hot little car. And when come time for rebuild pry have it ported if i can afford it.

Oh and i want to get the oem wing or one comparable.

I'm thinking of going that route to. I was going to do performance first but I didn't know if it was weird to make a car look good before making it make my HP goal.
