DAMN!!!!!!

This really is that rare GTU-S model. It's the Turbo II without the turbo.

Notice the lack of a sunroof for weight savings.

DAMN - if you were going to supercharger a GTU-S, this would be the one.

89 GTUs 91K $4,500

Not too bad.

MaxRX7

Erik

thats been in the for sale section for a while now...........where u been vaughnc!?!?!? haha, j/k

nice car though

MaxRX7,

Those are the stock TII wheels in the 89-92 years.

NOTE!!!!

This car is SO light, a Supercharger would be perfect for 350rwhp, low end torque, instant boost, heavy duty TII transmission, drive axel, rear LSD differential, rear steer - oh yeah!!!!

A perfect street-legal racing car.

MaxRX7

oh, I did not know that. I thought those wheels only came on the 'verts.

Josepi

The vert wheels look completely different (IMHO) and are 15" as opposed to those rims (TII) which are 16"

hence its aka "It's the Turbo II without the turbo"

SpeedRacer

I can't believe Blake is selling his car!b I want that car soooo badly!

Wow, I guess that misnomer has been overdue to appear again.

The GTUs does NOT have a Turbo II tranny.

vaughnc

Sure about that? He says this is a special edition GTU-S.

If the TII tranny weighed more (it hanldes 450+HP) and your only pushing 180HP which the NA tranny can handle, I can totally understand your point.

go_speed_go

It might be his "Special Edition", but there weren't any from the factory.
The GTUs had the TII suspension & brakes, not the tranny.

Kind of like my 86 Sport? So was mine the turbo model before the turbo?

vaughnc

Yours was the 1st edition "stripped for racing" model. The GTU-S (2nd edition) replace the sport (think that's right).

Erik

wtf is a special edition GTUs????? LOL

Scott 89t2
