So it's not quite an 8, but I <3 her and have been wanting another since getting rid of the last.



As such, I'm ready to drive!

2000 ls1/t56--15k on that motor, 112k on the car itself. ls6 intake, JTR 1 3/4" long tubes, 3" full exhaust w/ hi-flo cat are the only things really worth mentioning.

Is it a real R1 or were the parts put on it?

Update: Just saw your latest post. It's not a RX.

When are you going to bring it to show off? I agree with Al, it's no RX, it's more like a GMX-7.

Thanks guys! It is sad that it's not a rotary, but we've been interested in doing an ls1 swap on an FD since the last one just for kicks. She runs great, and the power is just amazing. Definitely satisfied.

Maybe this weekend at either the Leavenworth meet or the St Helen drive, depending on whether or not we can get a couple of things done on the car by then.
