2003 SeaDoo GTX 185 Supercharged 4 tec Project Jet Ski Revival PART 1
I picked up this 2003 SeaDoo GTX 185 hp supercharged ski for $500 as is. There is no trailer, the previous owner reported that it has a coolant leak and would overheat. He also said he drained the engine oil, I did not ask why. That was the extent of the history I got from him. I'm going to go through this ski and fix everything that it needs. Somehow the left sponson was ripped off, so I'll be doing some fiberglass repair on that. I had a 2004 GTX SC 185 that had a top speed of 63 mph on GPS, I'm thinking of making some modifications to this ski to try and get it close to 70 mph GPS with a very small budget. I need to find a trailer, sort the mechanical stuff, then water test it and find out the top speed.

I still have it, but it's just been sitting in my storage building for about 2 years. I'm planning to get out once the weather breaks here in NY and make a video of it

@@SeaDooEric I bought the same ski but it needs some repair. I need some assistance on the starter relay/ solenoid. Mine uses a sealed starter relay. I didn’t know this until I bought and tried to fix it. They use different pin connectors. Any chance you know which one does your ski use?

Hi! are you going to change the impeller, and the "Supercharger." Going to change mine this winter. Greetings Tobias!

Hello, I am going to remove and inspect the jet pump, not planning to change the impeller unless I need to. The supercharger will be removed and also inspected, supposedly it was rebuilt. I am thinking of installing a 215hp flywheel on the engine, the matching gear on on the supercharger, and maybe an external intercooler

@@SeaDooEric Yeah, should get around 63Mph, but as i Said the impeller looks like hell. The engine is almost new, like 3 years old, and THE wearring is just replaced, but i did find the thighners to the wearring strange😂
