Well I was wondering I know this aint the for sale part.

But what parts do you guys have laying around?

I would need computer wiring harness tranny and a motor. Maybe the exhaust or at least half of it...



I got my dads old Mitsibishi Cordia L.

The one with a body kit.

It has a blown motor basically and needs a bit of TLC.

It is a front wheel drive car. But has a solid axle suspension setup in rear. But it has a tunnel that may be sufficent for a driveshaft. But I was thinking of putting maybe a turbo 13b in this car. This car originally came with a 1.9 4 cylinder 120hp motor. And surprisingly it moved it pretty well when it ran well. But I was thinking of switching it to a rear wheel drive rotary. Due to the lightweight of a 13B I dont think it can weigh much more if anymore than the motor already in the car. I think this car with 200hp or more would maybe be light enough to run in the 13's. So if i had a 255hp motor I could be competitve with vettes maybe. Other than that this car is sitting in a driveway waiting and begging for some love! Any help here guys????

It is a carburated car. Since it is an 88!

I've got an '86 GXL sitting in my driveway, looking for someone to either give it some lovin' or tear it apart for its components. The motor runs, but it burns a little oil. Its got all of the luxury options, though. Leather... mmm.

Yeah, its the 5 speed. No autos for this guy. I HATED learning to drive on an automatic. As soon as I learned to drive a manual, it was like "yes, that's exactly what driving SHOULD be".

What color are your leather seats? Are they in good condition?

They are grey. The condition is decent. Better than I'd expect for a 15 year old car, but by no means perfect. The driver's side seat has more wear than the passenger's, of course, mostly on the outer edges where you'd slip in against the seat.

I have everything for a series 5 NA rx-7, except drivetrain, and the engine needs rebuild. But all the peripheral parts i.e. harnesses, ECU, alternator, intakes, TB, ACV. etc...

works and is in good condition. Engine needs front rotor/housing rebuild.
