Re: 82 Wide body Mariah Turbo Rx7
Did the MR2 Electric Power Steering pump swap using the FB/SA power steering box and dam, wish I did this sooner, best mod as far as band for the buck. dramatic difference (as i never had power steering working) nothing exciting about the pics, but see attached.

Re: 82 Wide body Mariah Turbo Rx7
hey, flipping the manifold can theoretically can work, but i went with the J2 cause of the BW S360 turbo i went with.... No idle issues, i mean it hunts a bit sometimes but once its warm, she huffs and puffs pretty hard with a solid 17hg vacuum. my down pipe barely clears my steering box.. like 3mm ...

Re: Building an RX7 LSD diff
Hi guys
Can I swap in the gsl-se 26 spline lsd and axles into my 82 GSL housing?
My plan theoretically is to swap out all the gsl parts from the differential. Use the GSL-SE third member, the Miata Torsen 2 lsd and moser 26 spline axles
Thoughts??
