    FS: 84 Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE AutoX Car (West Michigan) MAKE OFFERS

    1984 RX-7 GSL-SE
    Autocross Car

    I have decided to post this up for sale.  I have been trying to figure out what to do for a long time.

    I bought this car in April of 2001.  It was completely stock and had 86,000 miles on it.

    In the spring of 2003 the car was modified to become a dedicated autocrossing car.  It was prepared to run in SCCA C Street Prepared class.

    It was run in many of the Detroit Region and West Michigan events in 2003.  It was also run in many events in 2004.  It was run at several of the Cen-Div events and even was at a National Tour event.

    In 2005, 2006 and 2007 is was only run at a few events each year.  This is mostly due to my other time commitments.

    If you look at old results from any of those years you will note that I had a co-driver at many events.  He and I built the car together.

    Car Details:

    Body:
    Decent condition.  Not perfect but very useable as is.

    Interior:
    Decent condition.  Not perfect but better than most of these cars that I have seen.
    Corbeau A4 drivers seat installed
    Corbeau 4-Point Harness
    Battery re-located to passengers side storage compartment (behind the seat)

    Stock Motor 96,000 mi
    Emissions controls removed

    Racing Beat Street Port/Racing Exhaust
    High pressure clutch plate

    12a tranny currently installed
    Stock clutch type LSD rear end with stock 4.076 gears

    Dyno sheets show that this puts 140hp to the wheels

    Suspension:
    FRONT
    Tokico Illumina Shocks (5 position adjustables)
    Ground Control Threaded Sleaves (Coil Over Adapters)
    400 lb/in Ground Control Springs
    Racing Beat Caster/Camber plates

    Diamond Racing 13x7 with older Hoosier Autocross compound tires

    Stock Calipers
    Stock Rotors
    Carbotech Pads front and rear

    Stock Parts Included
    Drivers Seat
    Stock radio with EQ and amps

    PRICE

    $5750....NEW PRICE $4750 (6-22-08).....NEW PRICE $4250 (12/24/08)  MAKE OFFERS

    I am hoping to find someone that can apprecieate what it is and use it for its intended purpose.  However, I will consider reasonable offers. 

    The car is located in Dorr, MI 49323.

    Countless hours have gone into building this car to what it is.  We developed a mathematical model of the suspension setup and tuned the car to optimum autocross specs.

    This car is not a Sunday afternoon, drive through the country car.  It is also not a daily driver in its current state.  The ride is harsh.  The ride is loud.  Sad to say it, but this is a race car.

    I also have a pretty nice, very solid car trailer that could possibly be worked into the deal.  It has a tire rack and tool boxes on the front and flip up ramps.

    I'm just bringing this back up to get some fresh interest. 

    I am hoping someone that is interested in getting started in the sport of autocross can understand what a good package this is. It surprises me at every event that I bring it to. I have a bunch class wins locally. I have taken on nationally competitive drivers and cars (never beat them but, I can only blame the nut behind the wheel for that) and have had fair showings and many divisional events. The car really is great for the intended purpose.

    If you have any interest, let me know.

    Wondering if I might give you a call about your RX-7.

    Can you provide phone number at email below.  I am looking for a car that can be used on the track for fun days and DEs.  I would need to know the total weight of trailer with car to insure my tow vehicle will handle it.

    I keep coming back to the Second Gen RX-7 after spending time with folks at the DEs.

    Thanks,  Jack Smith  jack.smith@pcg.com

    It looks like you have the stock leather passenger seat.  Do you have the driver's seat?  Are they in good condition?  I would be interested in them.
