Finally took some pics myself instead of the ones I had from when I bought the car... This is the T2 hood on my NA... the NA hood was heavy and bent.. as you can see in the front.. my front bumper is bent in... was like that when i got it... plan to replace with possibly a small kit and definitely get some paint on that puppy...

Hey, picked up my 87 TII less than a year ago out of a guys field for $500 He had it in his field for 3+ yrs waiting to do a V8 swap. Dropped in a JSpec engine and off it goes. Everything works even the A/C and all the power windows. Just waxed it to take off that top layer of oxidized paint.

mines not exciting enough to post... stock suspension black s5 vert, but the stock wheels do look pretty sweet when you ditch the center caps, and paint the "mesh" part gun metal

Thanks!! Only 30 000 miles and almost never driven in rain.
The turbo is a Turbonetics T66BB, and the waterpump in/out is made by a friend of mine. I´ll be running a Davies Craig waterpump. I´ll post some pics after the pipes are finished...

I have some more engine bay pics, but unfortunatly no more on the car it self... but as soon she is out on the road again there will be alot of them!

Turbo Vert Conversion

I just completed my 88 TurboVert conversion. I bought a junk 87 Turbo II for 300 dollars. Turned out that the motor was complete junk. Water damage in the worst way but it was still woth $300 just for the accesories. Kevin Landers of Rotary Resurrection did the swap and rebuild for me. Ended up buying all of the short block and I got practically new rotor housings. I have 1000 miles on the rebuild and it really runs smooth. I added a autometer boost guage on an A-pillar pod, rebuilt my clutch master and slave cylinder, added the turbo hood, installed new Racing Beat style oil cooler lines, installed and wired the electric fan on the front of the radiator and put a manual switch to control it. Phase 1 completion. Phase to soon to begin.
