Lol,yeah so funny my neighbors hate me know. I post another vid 2morrow I got the racing beat pwr pulse air filter kit today gotta change my oil and maybe some oilstabilizer as it seems oil seals are on their way out.

Got a quick question if someone can help me out, I got two msd 6al feeding the distributor one is wired to my factory tach off the port on the back of the msd. Problem is my tach is def not right. When she idles it reads about 900-1000 rpm but when I rev her up the tach drops to 0 then bounces all over even though the car revs up fine. Should I just run a wire to the neg (-) side of the coil feeding the leading port on the distributor. I have a feeling it maybe electrical problem but I have checked and all seems in order, unless the alt is taking a ish.

I was actually in search of a GTS twincam coupe and found this, some call it a bastard I call best of both worlds. Its in a PuertoRicans' dna to own a Corolla and a rotary at some point in their life I just did both at the same time, lol.

Its def an sr5 rear end. I can get a ford rear end but its a bit of work I would prefer some thing a bit more bolton. Gts rear end is a bitch to find. My freind wants to just weld the sr5 diff but not really sure about that. Car will not be a daily driver but I still want to be able to drive it without worries about grenading the rear end.

Well, I started on the body work, got the engine runing smooth after countless trial an error with the holly carb. Before the car is painted I will send the motor off for a rebuild and ported. I will get some pics but nothing special other than stripped paint and bondo on the body. Stay tuned.

Its been sitting in the garage, just have not had the time car runs just fine needs paint its primered ready for paint. Man you could not beleive how much rust and bondo was under the original paint.Half the rocker panel was like foil paper and rusted from inside. I almost gave up on it and got another one but then realized body work can always be fixed and went to town. I'll post some pics and vids once it up to my standards.
