bought another 7.
88 GXL with what is thought to be an atkins rotary stg2 streetport s5 engine. Car comes with Apexi N1 exhaust with pre-silencer, brand new Powerslot rotors and Hawk HP pads, Eibach springs on stock shocks, of course the GXL LSD, Racing Beat header, TurboII wheels (mesh style) painted black, H4 headlights with silverstar bulbs, and is complete otherwise.

I have swapped the exhaust and brake rotors and pads over to my car. I'm gonna do a compression test on the engine and hope its good. The story behind that is it started running funny so the prev. owner assumed it was blown. Hmmmmm... So I'm hoping compression test out fine. Then I gotta do my research to see what I need to do to make it work in my S4, or if its even worth doing. My car has a 20k mile fresh rebuild as it is and is running great with no problems.

Trying to decide if I'm gonna strip what I want/need off the GXL or part it out as it is.
