what year is your "new" one doc? and when are you comming over help me get my POS running? I'm not saying she doesnt look great sitting in my driveway, but she'd look much much better cruising down the street under her own power, as opposed to me pushing my great white whale.

Hello, I'm a new member here. I live in Grand Rapids and I own a red 88'Turbo. It's in pretty good condition, grey cloth interior, fuzion ZRI tires. I'm currently getting the engine rebuilt by accurate engines in grandville, and will have it back in the car very soon. Hope to see you all on the road!! :evil:

Welcome! I'm just south of you down here in Allegan.

I've only had my '87 since February and it has been stored since that time. With the warmer weather I've started sorting it out. The good news is, I finally have a full set of the OEM "sawblades", I've figured out which part of the speedo cable is broke (the small one under the car), and found a loose connection in the intercooler plumbing that was most likely causing the fuel cut at 4k+. Bad news is I checked the tolerances on the turbo yesterday and it is shot. It is so bad, I can't believe it was actually making any boost. :aigo: So now I have two choices rebuild/replace or sell the car and work on a different project. Haven't decided yet.

Edit: Anyone have a spare, good, CT26 laying around and also the small speedo cable that goes between the main cable and transmission for a '87 MkIII 5spd?
