Came across a deal that I couldn't pass up. It needs some cleaning and TLC but as is, it runs its *** off. It weighed in at only 2100 LBS !! And that's before I'll put it on a diet !!

You guys will need to teach me about 1st gens, I don't know anything about them !

The car currently has a Borg Warner S361 on it, but it's for sale along with the manifold etc. etc. I'm going to buy a S475 and use that instead.

The car was originally built for road racing, the rearend is all Mazdacomp. Apparently the previous owner paid $2,000 for that rearend to be built. Anyhow, it's being pulled out this weekend and put up for sale.

I'll start the Minitub this weekend, going to run a 28/10.5/15W tire out back. QA1 Coilover Kit, QA1 3/4 X 3/4 Rod Ends, Chris Alston 4 Link Kit, Moser 4.57 Gear, Moser Spool, Moser Axles, Blah Blah Blah.

Anyhow, I just want to play around on the street and have some fun.

 

These tires won't be used, I'm throwing them away.

 

What'd you pick that bad boy up for? Have you ripped around in it yet?

 

looks like a mean little bugger! nice setup. Got any more pics of how that pump is being mounted?

 

$3,000

It's got alot more than that just in Suspension and mazdacomp built rearend, GSLSE Front and Rear suspension, Mariah Brakes, SS Brake Lines, Tokikos, Springs, All busings, Sway Bars.........



I changed out the oil cooler tonight, it was leaking a little. I'm going to take it for a spin tommorow before I break out the sawzaw and grinder.


It should be a fun little toy.

 

I took pictures of it but they turned out too dark.

They pulled off the gas tank straps and welded a bracket to that.

You know what's funny, I fit better in this car than my old 3RD GEN

 

lucky bastard. how is your other project going?

 

$200 and it's yours.

I'm trying to get someone to come pick it up this weekend. I need the garage space.

 

hi i got also the same car 1985 GSL-SE, I goin to use 26x10 with the stock chassis, 8.5 chevy rear end. The stock set up on the back on your car is already a 4 link(watts linkage) , the only thing you need to upgrade are the bars with 3/4 rod ends and chromoly tubes. this set up is being use in Puerto Rico and they run 9 sec. and 10 sec.

 

My new brackets were finally cut this morning !





When I originally bought the Chris Alston 4 Link Kit, they came with a 3 Inch OD Holes. Well, I'm running a 8.8 Ford which has 2.8 Inch OD Holes do that wasn't going to fly. You can see the gap from the pictures.





I found someone out in California that's building some wicked cars. I let him know that I need my brackets duplicated but I need the hole smaller. I also had him keep the same Chris Alston geometry but add Shock Mounts and holes for a Stabilizer Bar.

 

i'm guessing that it's 200 for just the shell?

 

you get the interior too......... and all the front suspension is there and it's already setup for a rotary (Motor Mount / Trans Mount)

Straight car......... I've probably got 200 hours in it.

 

lol, why is that not suprising. I used to have a gsl-se and found that I didn't have a problem getting in and out of it. But with a 3rd gen (my buddies car) I found that thing a bitch to get in and out of. Of course my second gen is like a boat, lol. Great project though man! Keep us updated!

 

Heyy!!!!

Hope you have fun with the new project!!!

Rotaries+1.8corollas+Fb's+Bacardi Rum= I think you have a hidden puertorrican in you???

JEjejE~~!!!
