1850Colt Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Hi everybody! awesome site. Just bought a 1980 GSR Celeste to keep my 1850 Colt company. How rare are these?

lowlancer Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Hmmm GSR eh, what GSR version is it? 4G52 or 4G32? As far as I'm aware, the only real differences were carbs (twin generally), axles/diff (bigger) and trim. Hook us up with pics man! They always seem to be the later model square headlights, unlike my round version model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sexychevette Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 There is a mint as, gsr celeste, that lives down the road from me. It looks like its brand new or some shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1850Colt Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 Its a 4G52,single carb,got a blown head gasket,gunna fix it next week and chuck some twin carbs on it from my old colt. It needs a bit of work ie passenger door,guard and other bits.Anybody got parts ?? Also have these got a LSD? or just stronger/bigger diff? Its got square headlights. Will suss out some pics eventually! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 No LSD. NZ-new GSRs are nothing like the japanese namesake. You basically get a bigger motor and better trim. I would be suprised if it had larger brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Damn shoulda bought my book to work to check fuel's right though, my bad, just had the single carb 4G52, which is still good for around 100hp or so from factory, if memory serves me right. From the one GSR I've seen, the front brakes certainly looked bigger. Non vented etc, but def bigger Meh, pics etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
