BTW, speaking of 1st gens, where's George at these days? | 13b swap in 1st gens are so damn easy.I should know did it all myself.Still have to add more to my sig. I need another 1st gen to build.This time maybe use a downdraft carb instead.  I might sell this one and buy one from alberta for 1000-1400 and scrap the 12a yet again and sell it for the price of a 13b(Stupid people here don't know what they're worth).Not too sure yet I might keep this one.

Alright guys, I'm drunk and have been thinking (run for your lives!!!).
Am I wasting my time and money with my rex? Should I start dumping tons of cash into it or should I get it payed off ASAP and start looking for something else?
If I keep the rex a street port is a must down the road, otherwise I've gotta move on.
Whadda you think?

Hey Bcty this just showed up on RS.Not too bad but a bit pricy because of the milage and work need(my 13b has 136,000 kms on it) 85 Rx you'll prolly want to remove the A/C and power steering and smog pump for more power too.and remove the ACV(air control valve)if you take the pump out. | |

Is the problem with 2nd gen airbox's that there isn't enough cold air getting to it or is it the design of the box itself?
I figure I can whip up some $2 system to get more cold air to the box, but if it's the box that's the problem I'll just wait and do something with a cone filter.

spend 50-70$ and get a cone filter.. you can do a cold air like me or draft something up i had a cold air coming from behind before.. it worked good but i slao had one coming from the front.. they both cooled really well but when i stopped then the temps went back up to normal (which licks ass ) just get a dont filter.. its a good place to start if you dont wanna fork out the $$$ for the sxhaust right now.. | |

Yeah, I'll just do the cone. I'll be doing the exhaust ASAP though. Hopefully within a month at the very latest.
