GTUs Roll Call

OK, just so you know, I DID perform a search for this, and nothing of the sort showed up in the last 6 months.

Year, color, VIN, options, mileage, and pics, if you have them.

Present and accounted for. 89 GTUs, red on black (looks just like ren's, faded paint and all, but not for long). Factory a/c (works), aftermarket cd adn speakers. 139k and 5k on a rebuild by myself. Mechanically perfect. Tinted windows. Plans for a single corksport with 2.5" straight exhaust, e-fan, intake, front lip of some kind, nd paint. I have added a tilt column (5lb increase, but needed for my comfort), a s5 t2 MOMO steering wheel and shiftknob, and an s5 GXL cargo/hatch cover(5lb). I also removed the stock mudflaps (3lb) cause they were ugly.

Hardy har har... :o

VIN, there, is that better?

Only if you want to, of course. Not necessary, I'm just trying to see if there's any pattern to the VIN's.

Yo,


Kevin, your "piece"? What do you mean "piece"?! Like POS?!

Dude, get a nice paint job and you're done! Heck, your engine bay can't get any cleaner....interior looks perfect with the freakin' rear cover that I don't even have.

*pokepoke*

"Piece"...bah! Now you're old TII...*wink*

Yeah, it just looks like a piece. ONce the exhaust and paint are on, it'll be sweet. It is a blast to drive. YEs, I like it MUCH better than my t2, or any t2 I have had. The s5 NA is the best 7 made IMO, adn the GTUs is the best of that class.

IT just pisses me off because the paint is so bad on this car, which is otherwise SO nice. ANds paint is SUCH a major obstacle to overcome, for a do-it-yourselfer such as myself; I can spray, but prep/paint is one of the only things I can not do really well myself, in contrast to mechanical work etc. By spring it oughtta be sitting right though.

Rishie,

That is one damn fine looking 7. Those Kosei's really fit the bill.

Come on, is this all we've got?

I think they're either Kosei's or SSR's, but that's just a guess.
