Long time coming...
Welp. I originally had planned to finish off my 1986 GXL as an fun N/A summer ride. But as I was working on it I can across this beaut:
1987 Turbo II
Street ported, 3mm apex seals
720cc injectors
BNR Stage 2 Turbo
Microtech LT10S (Needs a tune but will be getting changed out for a Haltech over the winter)
Racing Beat Exhaust (Also getting changed out)
17" Advan Wheels
2 Stage Clutch
S5 Transmission
AEM A/F Gauge
AEM Tru Boost Gauge/Controller
HKS Coilovers (need at least one rebuilt so may as well get all 4 done, or replaced)
Greddy FMIC
Koyo Rad
Will freshen up the paint next year as there is no rust but the paint is oxidized. Also have a few things I want to do to the interior as well. This car is so much fun to drive!

Will get a progress thread in the build section soon. I want to get this on a dyno as well since I have no clue what this car is putting down. It pulls hard, that is all I know. Haha.

Oh I have one. Haven't been driving it without, those pics are from when I picked it up. The plan was to put an electric fan on. The clutch fan was in the trunk.
