#1
Check out what I got. 1979 mazda glc,, oh hell yes. I found it in a garage next door to one of my boy's houses. As soon as I saw this the heavens parted and I got tunnel vision. In my head I could see this car pulling nasty wheel stands off the line. I coul hear it idleing brap brap brap! Just writing this Im geting the shakes. The car has brand new welds 15". Brand new M/T slicks with the stickers still on them. Six point cage, totally gutted minus the dash. Some kind of racing seat came with the car. Line lock installed. Dual msd boxes. The rear end is supposed to be a late sixties early seventies datsun truck rear with 4-33 gears. The car has first gen brakes all the way around. Right now the only motor that I have thats worthy is my 12A half bridge. I had in my Fb it it was **** load of fun. The motor is fresh I had in my car for a short time and I kept destroing trannys and rear ends. All I can say about that is it was worth every ******* seconed. To top it of I want to throw some NOS on the car I ben sittin on this kit for a wile and Im finally gona use it. Let me know what yall think comments suggestions what ever.[attachment=38591:attachment]

Yeah I can't wait to start ****** with it. The previos owner had a PP 13B appaerently and cut up a first gen motor mount and welded it to the unibody frame rails. The welds are sloppy and are cracked. seconed when I dopped my 12A in it sat all cocked to the right so that **** is going to be relaced. Ive been told that a Rx-4 cross member botls in where the swaybar is like cross member first then OE glc sway bar. I found this part but I'm going on hear say the price is reasonable 125 for Rx-4 cross member and Rx-4 motor mount. has any body else head of that **** working??? need some input or should I have some custom **** made up

Growing up I always remember the older guys cutting and welding there own ****, it was wierd like they split an rx7 mount and a glc mount and reweld them to make one. and it works great but i dont believe this is the correct way. just the grassroots way. but it works fine for street cars. All in all I think you should just have a place fab em up so you know its new and strong.you never know what your getting when you buy used ones.

My car had an RX-3 front crossmember when I got it. It looked like it bolted right in. RX-3 stuff is what you want. Well, maybe not now that your can has already had somthing welded in there. The RX-4 thing may work with some minor cutting and welding to fit the car.
