Cool Merkur. I see you got rid of the stupid bi-plane rear spoiler. That really cleans up the look. I had an 87... it is a great highway warrier!

Does the B2000 just need a new engine? Drop a 12a
or 13b into it! Shouldn't be that hard.

Hmm, I must be weird since I liked the dual plane rear
spoiler on both the Merkur and the Cosworth.

BTW, just to keep on topic, my daily right now is a
'96 Plymouth Neon Highline with the only mod being a
K&N filter for now. Will change that shortly

Once I get the '82 GSL fixed and passed inspection it'll
be my daily driver and I'll give my wife back a modified
Neon.

i got a sweet 91 buick lesabre, 3.8 with free air intake, it doesnt really do much for performance, just makes it have a sweet intake roar now. and the person with the first post is one lucky bastard (j/k), 91 mr2 turbos are one of coolest cars made, my friend has a 91 na and it fun as hell the way it is. he plans on getting his 3sgte engine next winter, that should be loads of fun

Yeah, I got rid of the spoiler, saved me like 50 pounds! But it was the '88 spoiler single stage. The dual stages are okay...but the king of all spoilers is the RS500 wing! That thing is cool but its alot of denero. My friend has the whole RS500 kit, front damn, wheelwells, spoiler. He says the car is completely stable and stuck to the ground at 240kp/h!! I'm not sure what I'm going to do to her next, maybe sierra sapphir bumber and spoiler? Much cleaner, i want something different....but than i look at my friend's merkur and im like I want that

Beside the 85 GSL-SE, all I drive is my fiance crazy!
I second that. I just sold my 2000 Toyota 4Runner cause I couldn't afford it. The Rx-7 stays with me forever though.

Summer: 85 GSL-SE, 88,200 on the clock, "almost" stock, no heat, working A/C, 30gb Empeg and other toys, slightly tuned for SCCA Auto-X.

Winter: 89 Accord LX-i 5-speed, 178,500 on the clock, has working heat, CD player, and ghetto honda breaks. Not BAD for a 3valve EFI 2.0liter.

Nissan Skyline R34 is my daily driver around town, 12,8 standing quarter in stock trim.

Ford Fairlane is the family car, plus a Suburu Outback 3.0 litre for towing my boats and dirt road trips.

I have the use of numerous 4 wheel drives for outback work, while my wife drives a Range Rover for her job which I borrow occasionally as the fuel is free!.

The second RX-7 comes at Xmas for my son on holidays from university.
