I was gonna post pictures of my S/C build and all. But I'm gonna put all that stuff in the build log I'm making and I'm still missing a few key things.

However, this is bound to make you guys jealous:

as you can see, no progress on the S/C at all. I'm going to order the blower rebuild kit tomorrow as well as a no-weld kit for the wideband. Also going to find a shop to rebuild my alternator and put the S/C pulley on.

I don't think there is any harm in posting that number as you can walk down any parking lot and write down dozens of these tag numbers. But please inform me if it's dangerous to post something like this up. I already blocked all my other personal info.

As for my S/C. I haven't had the time to put fluids back in. As for now, the pulley turns but with a little more effort than I think it's supposed to need. But then again there is no fluid in it. The rebuild/refresh kit is cheap and it'll give me the peace of mind that it'll be running perfectly when I put it in.

Here's what ive been having fun with over the past three years, sold most of them.

First up is my child 1968 Dodge Charger "Beastie"
520cui or 8.5L V8 550+ HP 600 troques
Backed by a tremec tko 500 5spd
3.90 rear gears.
I built this car myself and really kind of miss it. Its now in Sweden and if i ever get enough money im getting it back.

1970 240z
Had a built 280z Turbo motor with a huge Greddy on it, Push 30psi through the thing.
It was pretty much a gutted drag car that i bought to drive daily,wouldnt do it again had to turn the car off if i ever wanted to talk to someone. Awesome stories with it though.

1969 Mustang fastback
had a rebuilt 302 owned it five days then sold it for 4k profit

1972 Corvette
Non matching 454 ls6 with m20 4spd
Worst car i ever owned and the people associated with that gen corvette im not too fond of.

Here is where i got sensible

1993 Rx7 Touring
gt35r single kit
Car was built by RRR
Loved it but sold it to fund the Charger project, mistake of course

My current car which im content to keep forever 1994 Rx7 R2
Bought from forum member
XS rebuilt the motor some time ago and believe it has a to4e single, cant wait to throw money at it. Just got the Ms02's yesterday for the car, despite what you think i like them. Guess that could be the muscle car guy in me cause they kinda look like salt flat racing rims.

I like the diffuser^^^^

Just picked up a 1st gen for a few $100. Definitely needs a engine rebuild but it starts and has a "ok" interior and exterior.




1st is engine rebuild then paint job.

Grats on the find... aftermarket chrome wheel arches, very 80's.

The spoiler alone would probably net you $100 at the right time/place.

Picked her up with no engine, a torn apart body harness and a interior that smelled and looked like cats had been living in it for 14 years.

Just finished the swap, and swapped in the black leather interior
