General 12A Turbo Information
Q: What about the Japanese 12AT then?
A: Well for starters the 12AT was found basically only in Japan. The engine was found in more than just the Rx7, but also the Cosmo and Luce.
Some stand out OEM features (aside from obvious engine items) are:
1. Red cooling fan, Red spark plug wires
2. Gauge cluster with boost gauge
3. "Turbo" wheels
4. Badging
5. EFI style airbox (similiar to GSLSE setup, only have a "turbo" sticker)
There are quite a few other things that is dose share with our GSL-SE. Namely, the suspension. Both cars have the 4x114.3 lug patterns, differentials and brakes. I also believe the transmissions to be the same. While the port timing is somewhat different, the GSLSE intermediate plate might also be adaptable for a 12at.
