I was going to say targa band also, but I was pointing more at performance based desires. The targa band though is a very nice/rare/desired first gen part.

my friend has a Starion intercooler he might selling for $150 if any one is iterested.

he was going to put it on his TII but the car is being dumb and looks like he need a new drive shaft, Rear end mount and LSD.

so he needs money.

Are the 84-85 wheel wells different than the earlier models?

I can easily get the Window switches....

I see a lot of Nissan junked cars... (280, 240 etc)

I see Supra's too... but I don't know if they're turbo

The targa band... I don't know what that is but I've probably seen one....

starion.... I think I've seen a couple of those....

Turbo II.... Since my junkyard going days began... I've only seen 1.... motor and tranny removed...

3 GSL-SE since I've been at the yard (different yards)....

The center console I can easily get that.....

Wheel wells... I don't know how that looks, but I think I removed one this weekend...

I've seen a junk car with glass pack and a dynomax muffler NO CATS... Dome light cover... I've seen a lot, but only one that was in good condition... it still had its 2 prongs that break off easily...

the guy is using it as an ice racer, so he'll probably give the motor back...
