That name sounds familiar actually... at some point we'll all need to get together. Maybe I'll throw together a meet/show in the summer, its been a while since we've done one..

Besides, LE's didn't have FMOC!! :)


Neither did my '84 GS, but dammit its getting one.

The insane heat in the summer here almost warrants it, even on a BONE stock rotary. I'm using an FC cooler :)

Just saying.

See Bill he agrees with me!! I have a FC cooler also but I think the 79 stuff will be more of a drop in application...I need a new rad any way

'84 GS isn't a rare model, thus why it wont matter :) They dont have LSD or disc brakes, but I'd throw 'em on a GS any day, lol.



On another note, honestly... the behive isn't that bad. Is the FMOC better? Absolutely. Necessary on a stock 12A - not really. Plenty of those little guys
have helped those 12As make it to 200K+ miles...


Really, I'm just picking on Chris here about it :)

That is why I swapped in an LSD/disc rear end!!!!!

All in all, nothing really matter except what YOU want to do!

All I know, is all these bastard cars better be at DGRR.

We can run out there this weekend if you want. I want to pull that sunroof and door handle too, lol. I'd really like to yank that extra S4 engine but kinda stuck on room right now.

I'm bringing my RX8 to DGRR again this year. Thought about bringing the '87 but not sure it would survive, lol.
