    Default My 1985 Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE Widebody turbo project car!

    Hey guys,
    This is my project car that I have been working on for the last 6 months or so. I picked up the widebody as a rolling chassis and am swapping everything from my stockbody over. The stockbody had perfect interior, and a good drivetrain, but the paint needed to be done. When I priced out paint I found out I could get this widebody for cheaper than painting my other car. In the last few months ive swapped the whole drivetrain, electrical, interior, glass, fuel system, exhaust system, suspension, and everything else from my old car to this widebody.

    I have HUGE plans for the car, but right now I am just a student so I can't afford everything I want. Future plans include: TII engine/tranny swap, I plan on streetporting the motor and rebuilding it myself, aftermarket turbo, FMIC, microtech ECU, 3" exhaust, walbro 255phh, Ford 9" torsen diff, and all sorts of supporting mods. I would like to hit 400 RWHP.

    One thing you will notice in most of my pictures is that the car looks halarious because I don't have the rims for it yet. The rims I am getting are 3000 dollars, so its taking me a while to save up. But im going to be running 17x12 rear and 17x10 CCW classis rims, with 315/35/17 rear and 275/40/17 sumitomo tires.

    Few updates of the project. Hope to have it running this winter. Currently waiting on the restored fuel tank, grannyspeedshop 8.8" with 4.3's, 31 spline axles, driveshaft loop, torque arm. CCW rims, and microtech standalone (lt10s).

    Long time since I have uploaded any newer pictures on here.

    The car made 320 rwhp on low boost (10 psi), need to work out a couple bugs and going to retune it. I would like to be running about 15 psi with water injection on the street in the future.
