Those would work but mindtrain is the baddest for the 1st gens!

That may be true, but I have a $$$ budget.

Let me borrow the whole system for a while, see if I like it :)

Well, got the axles swapped out and the rear springs are in.

One issue. I can't put the BBS's on yet. The stock wheel bolts are too short for the hub thickness of the BBS wheels. They don't even reach through the wheels, much less have thread to go into the rotor. I can't seem to find extended wheel bolts anywhere.

Any ideas????

ur welcome

New booster and master cylinder on the way. Found a really good stud kit for the wheels. Turns out the company is local to where I grew up!! Ordered a full stud kit and a set of lug nuts, black anodized. Got a REALLY good deal too. If anyone wants tires, wheels, studs, lugs, adapters, whatever give them a shot!

Wheel studs arrived!
MSD arrived!
Brake Booster with new MC arrived!
Holley Blue pump and regulator arrived!

Parts are coming together. I'll be working on it this weekend.

Studs and nutz

Nothing got done this weekend. The weather did not cooperate at all, and with the Cosmo and all its spare parts in the garage, there is not a whole lot of room to work all around the FB.

I did order some more bits for the interior from Mazda. Its amazing how much they still have available, and how cheap it actually is. Nearly everything I got cheaper than people are selling used! I also locked down a glass moonroof.

More to come....

Picked up an RB Muffler from Billy.

This weekend is looking good to work on the FB. I sure could use some help though, time is running out.

Studs are in, wheels are on.
'New' gauge cluster in.
New ignition switch assembly in
New headlight/combo switch in
New OEM steering column surrounds in.
New booster/master cylinder in

Still have to:
bleed brakes
strip emissions
install Holley carb/pump/regulator
install RB muffler
Wire in MSD for direct fire
install FMOC
install some more interior bits
install gauges
install front springs

No time for paint :(

I also think I should replace the radiator. The previous owner decided that JB weld fixes everything!

Here is a shitty pic from my phone.

Sexy.

Bad news.

Title issues are not going to be worked out I believe.

Expect a part out thread soon.

Alot of money wasted.

Sooooo wait.... you're going to scrap both of them? Didn't someone say that in the beginning? :rofl:

Sorry to hear man.... that really sucks.. good looking car. I don't understand though... salvage title maybe? Or, in CT anyway, if you store a car on your property for 90 days, it CAN be titled to you regardless. They do this for people that skip out on mechanics/bodyshop bills etc etc. Maybe try that route?

!!!!!STOP THE PRESSES!!!!!

I just found out this afternoon that there is a way to get the documents I need to title the 1984 here in TN.

All it is going to cost me is a half day off work, and $1 cash.

AND! The black one should be resolved as well. The guy I got it from just got the title today, and is going to mail it to me tomorrow.

So things have kinda done a 180 since I posted this.

The Rotary Gods are looking out for me.

aww, I wanted to see you buy ANOTHER car....

Give it a week.
