Question GTUs

Is $2800 a good deal for a 1990 GTUs. The body and interior are in very good condition. It has 178k miles but is believed to have had a rebuild not to long ago. The only problems I know of is it might need a new tps and some new injectors since I think they are leaking.

Thats a little steep for a car with an undetermined number of miles. What leads you to believe that the engine was replaced?

However, and Im not sure, but I believe there were less 90 GTUs' made than 89's. If that matters to you, take that into consideration.

Thumbs up Actually, for a '90 GTUs in good condition....

sounds like a good deal to me.

Pull the injectors and send to RC Engineering for back flushing and re-tune. $20 each, cheap fix.

TPS, can probably find a good used one for not a whole lotta $ by posting in the parts section of the Forum or checking E-bay from time to time.

Heck, the wheels and 3rd member are worth $600 alone. Good rebuild will cost between $1,000 and $2,000 depending on new rotor housings or not (check Mazdatrix web site).

Add those three categories together and you're almost at the price for the whole darn car.
