Exclamation

so yeah, i left houston, tx at 6:15pm yesterday, as a HUGE thunderstorm was just hitting, the damn **** was non-stop the whole 3 hour trip to austin( i normally make it in 2 hours, but thanks to the damn rain, i had to go slower) Anyhow, i went to pick up my like new condition 1988 TurboII! I never thought i would get an FC, simply because im an FD ***** and have owned two in the past. But i couldnt pass up this car, its in better shape than almost any other car ive owned. Its got a red exterior and black interior, has a sweet list of mods aswell. The interior was completely swapped out for 89+ interior as well as tail lights. Has a j-spec T2 motor with a t3/t4 turbo, gforce ecu, super avc-r, intake, RB full exhaust (dp,mp,cb) vortech fpr, upgraded fuel pump, hks tt, tokico 5-ways, eibach springs, endless pads, greddy type-s bov. And im prolly forgetting something, but yeah.. its sweet. I dont have pix because the entire trip was a rainy one, to and from austin,tx. I will try to get pix on my next day off, once i get a chance to clean the car up nicely.. but yeah.. i love this car.. and im glad to be in a rotary again

I believe the t3 footprint is smaller than the stock turbos footprint. Not totally sure though.

Good job. You know you can't live without a rotary to drive when you feel down. Nothing is like a shrieking wankel in a 2400 pound Japanese build Porsche.
