Who in here owns a GTUs?
I am getting ready to buy a 90 GTUs and was wondering what you owners have to say about the cars and if you wouldnt mind posting some pictures that would be great too. Thanks

GO VT! haha sorry, threadjack
|
haha heck yeah dude......vt rocks!!...
....anyways.....lil bump action |
They're basically the same as the other cars, just no options and a 4.3 viscous LSD rear diff and the tII 5th gear. The 90 is the rarest.
|
they're cool :yum:
|
my friends got an 89(190,XXX), original engine and tranny with no rebuilds, and i like. It its lasted forever with no major problems
|
I Do!
|
People say that they are rare. Does anyone know in relation to numbers how rare they are??

http://www.teamfc3s.org/forum/showth...threadid=36760 its a turbo now..go ahead..flame on! |
They are the rarest of all FCs or even all 7s..
The 1990 are just left over from the 89 and they are in hundreds only |
mine is an 89 and loved it but unfortunately i love the boost so i did a swap..
|
There were about 1000 89's, and anywhere from 25-100 90's. I've got a supercharged '89, don't have pics at the moment though.
|
how are these cars so rare? i mean when most people ( or at least me) think of rare they think 10th AE, why is that?
|
thanks for the feedback guys........good stuff. Im going to get the car in a manner of days so I will then post pics. Awesomeness
SonicRat.....how you likein that Supercharger?? oh and what does GTU stand for? I assume the "s" stands for sport? |
cuz turbo is more sought after ;)
|
They think the 10th AE is the rarest because it's an anniverary edition, but when you compare the numbers, the GTUs was the least produced. Driving the GTUs will have to wait, just got the charger kind of setup and it's snowed, so, it gets to sit until summer now. :)
|
Ohhh....alright cool deal. Well I hope it works well when spring rolls around. Why does your location say you live in so many places there?
|
I travel a lot, depending upon which month it is I'm in a different location. A nice easy way to identify a GTUs (to make sure it's a true GTUs) is to check the door sticker for the 16" rims, i've found a few 'claimed' GTUs (GTUs stickers, manual windows/etc) that were really just the base models built up.
|
thanks for the inside info there. Sounds good....
|
i will be owning one later. got to save up sum money
|
i saw a 89 GTUs in a junkyard a little while ago :'-( it was stripped to the bone, except the tranny, wich i picked up :-)
|
Fero313 has one.
|
From my knowledge GTUs would = Gran Turismo Unlimited sport.
|
sweet........thanks guys
|
I have a black '89.Had it about 8 years. I like the car handles really well but as of late I think it needs more power so if I continue to keep it I want to go turbo one day.Either a TII conversion or turbocharge the n/a motor that's in it.Also 5th gear isn't the same as a TII it is a little closer. .756 for GTUs and .719 for '89TII according to the FSM. They are also the lightest of the Series 5 cars and have the same suspension as the TII.
