very excited.

 

nice find.

 

its a MORE-DOOR!

 

wow that car is clean, nice find !!

 

Nice find

 

Thumbs up !

 

Nice find very clean...

 

looks great .....

 

thanks guys finally got it home today turns out the car is in better shape then i thought soo happy. anyone have an idea what its worth and how common the sedan is?

have lots of work ahead of me

 

hmm I'm being a bit optimistic but i think that paint could be brought back with a wet sanding, or some buffing with some compound maby. would love to see more pics.

 

the paint is cracking and peeling up front so i dont think i can save the paint my 3yr old daughter wants to paint it deep purple so we made a deal she can do the sanding hahaha.

i took one sparkplug out of one side cranked and did the same on the other seems its sealing good need to charge a battery and check compression. then maybe put some atf in there or something similar heard deisel will work for eating some carbon up.

i have been looking around for a fuel pump,regulator,gauge but not sure yet.
i had a carter once and it was very loud anyone know of a quieter one? also had a water gauge on the reg but was really inaccurate and once got hot it would read 0 any ideas on what gauges works?

i found little info in the clinton service manual i got with the car about the twin dizy but apears the lower dizzy is leading and top is trailing right? looks like they had the wires in the wrong places lol

 

i saw that car on CL and i thought the asking price was too high,so i passed on it.

 

will a rx7 5speed work with the rx2 driveshaft? or will it need moding?

what do people do for lsd in the rx2 swap a rear end or can you fit say a 1stgen lsd 3rd member?

thanks
chris

 

I believe the pre '83 small axle lsd will work. Not sure about the tranny.

 

I believe you're right on the twin dizzys. I'll take a look on my R100, but from memory I think that's right. My R100 still has the original wires on it and they are all marked for leading and trailing. Kind of nice of them to do that.

 

nice can anyone back him up? i have a 1stgen lsd not sure which one how can i tell messure the input holes?

 

cool thanks.. a r100 now thats rare.

 

not sure bout the drive shaft, but you have to get the early bellhousing because you have the starter on top, unless you are replacing the motor

 

Nice find man. Congrats and good luck with that.

 

81-83 third member will work,not 84-85.

 

FB driveshaft is too short but it can be extended. thats an upgrade over a stock RX-2 two piece driveshaft

 

cool thanks mate.. still need to determine which year 3rd member i have tho.

got my fuel pump today ended up gettin a holly blue and reg and a aeromotive fuel gauge need to go to jerrys and get some plumbing fittings.will work on installing that friday night hopefully ill get it running saturday

 

thats cool to know.

i might just change the motor/tranny later on when the exsisting pops

also isnt the wheel bolt pattern the same as a rx7?

 

bolt patter is the same as non-GSL-SEs

 

Should be 4x110.
