WAS12A's 1985 S3 Rx-7

[WAS12A]

Hey Guys,

New to the forum.

I'm over here in Perth.

Thought i'd throw up a few pics up of my S3. I've just finished it off to how i'm gonna keep it for a while, so for now I'm just going to enjoy it.

I'll add some more details and pics later if anyone is interested.

Cam...

Cheers Guys.

Yeah it's a Mariah Motorsports rear hatch. I've always loved the hatch part of their wide body kit since the '80's so when I was over in California a few years ago I got in contact with them to see if they still made them.

After checking out a few cars they had put them on, I got them to dust off the mould and make me one. I then put it in a box and then put that box in a box and sent it home to myself. Took 2 weeks to get here via airmail (as it was still fresh off the mould and I didn't want it left in transit possibly leading it to bend) and cost me $900! in postage. Apparently it's the only one that have ever sent to Australia.

At some stage i'd like to put a T04z on it just to see how much power I can get out of it. But, to be honest it's right on the grip limits now on dry roads and it's Farkin scary to drive on wet roads. So, i'll keep it how it is for now. That, and i'm about a week away from becoming a dad so i'm sure that's gonna suck some serious coin off the bank balance.

I have made a cradle in the hatch area just above the amps to store the sunroof when it's removed while i'm driving around. I've also got the U.S. spec tinted glass "moonroof" so I swap sunroof's around depending on my mood.

Here's a few more pics.
