Mine would be creating pen and paper ciphers for my made up secret communication needs.

I’ve had mine for about 15 years now. It’s a 1982 GSL with all the original factory options. Mines pretty heavily modified though. It made a huge 89rwhp on the dyno out of the carb’d 12a.

Just about everyone I know has trouble fitting in all the fun cars. I’m relatively small, so I fit great in my rx7 and Miata.

Honestly I'm kind of glad I got my Samurai, because I have a neighbor with a 1983 or 1984 Rx7 that looks great but never moves, and I was having to talk myself out of offering him money for it.

It's getting very difficult to find parts for the FB. There are a lot less people who know how to work on them, or are willing to work on them too. They are a blast to drive, and every time I think I should sell mine, I go for a drive, and remember why I can't.

A few pics of mine....

Very nice! I had that same spoiler on my '79.

Let me see if I can figure out how to post a picture. It's not a sexy as an Rx-7 but it's just as fun, in a different way.! image

The samurai is an amazing little vehicle. They are pretty adorable too.
