Introducing my 323 GT

[Rustypro]

all i can say is "wicked my youth"

[sethro_GT]

definitely post pics once you get it painted. I am thinking of painting mine to match my wifes 07 Mazda5 with Galaxy Gray Metalic.

I would recommend moving the battery to the trunk, free's up a lot of space.

You could check the following. If gas coming up to the fuel rail, if fuel line is connected properly to fuel rail as in the return is connected the return line and the send line is connected to the fuel in on the fuel rail & not the other way around, if current is reaching the injectors, if the injectors are opening up. You can try these and let me know the outcome.

Glad things work out for. No I do not know if miata coil overs would fit a 86 89 gt/gtx. No it is not a direct bolt up but maybe with mods it might work.

What RPM does the T28 hit positive boost? full boost? Eventually I want upgrade when I run out of room on the 11/t-bird and am curious of the responsiveness

Around 3200rpm to 3500rpm when it was on the b6t haven't gotten to fully test it on the bpt as the car need a proper tuning & I hardly have time for myself with work so it is on a little pause from test driving but i do start it 3 days apart and let it throttle for a little

Sorry no pix of strut b4 installation.

Been awhile sice i posted anything about my ride so here is small update as to what i have been up to. Got a brand new fuel pump n installed this earlier week, after changing the pump my air fuel meter gauge stop working, not showing any reading only gauge light turn on. Took the car for a country run yesterday. It burns gas well, took 1/4 tank gas to go n return crusing that is. When i reach my destination there was nice salom setting that i could'nt resist. The car felt very stable n steering was predictable as i went through salom. I luv my suspension setup so far n mi nuh dun wid it yet 3 more upgrades required n it done. Only thing missing was an onboard cam to share my salom experience.

Here are some pix of my car on an abandoned runway

This swap is for changing from manual sunroof to power mooroof. It is a very straight forward swap made easier with the assistance of my friend Ovando.

Here are some pix of the process

Sunroof prior to swap

Moonroof awaits intallation


Sunroof & Moonroof




These tabs need to be swap from the sunroof panel to the moonroof panel to bolt up


Up goes the moonroof panel









Say hello to a operating & fully functional power moonroof


No more leaky, hand cranking sunroof.

Next step is to install a proper roof lining to complete my moonroof swap.
