Project "Rally 7" - 84 GSL-SE

The heart of the beast

Physically swapping the motors was the easy part.

Old engine ready to go

New motor going in, using hard Mazda Motorsports mounts and GSL-SE mount plate (custom yellow)

Sitting pretty. In this picture you may notice the notorious yellow spraypainters got the wrong side of my No Limit swaybar.

Fast Forward 2-6weeks....

We got it to fire up. Of course there's no driveshaft, throttle cable, exhaust, seats .....

RX7 FC TII got a couple videos of it running on his phone. Turn the volume DOWN.

Here's a video of outside the shop to show how insanely loud it is.

Now I need to find the pictures everyone else took, because I always forget.
