Well I bought it Thursday, 11.03.11 and its going to need some loving. I will post pictures and get everything up on here. I'm still learning about the car so this will get pretty interesting.
To start it off I don't know much about all the specifics but it is the 5 Cylinder 20 Valve Turbo engine. The Turbo was upgraded by one of the previous owners and its a Garret (haven't looked too closely yet at exactly what it is but it's BIG)
All of the hoses are Samco and it has a front mount radiator.

Needs some loving but maybe someday it will be better than new.

Also it was an East Coast car so it has quite a bit of rust Pictures will be uploaded soon

Problems that have been found so far:
Driver heated seat doesn't work
Rust all over
Front bumper is broken
Missing a right blinker
Doesn't blow heat out of the vents
Drivers door doesn't open from the inside because its missing the handle
Cluster is all sorts of messed up. Gauges work but all the display things don't
Rear driverside window doesn't roll down
Needs new breaks/rotors bad.
Timing belt, pullie, and tensioner need to be replaced.
The key is broken off in the ignition.
Power steering and breaking decides when it wants to work
Hood support doesn't stay up as you can see in one of the pictures its supported by a wooden stick haha
Not a huge problem but more of a disgusting factor. I don't think this car has seen a vaccume in over 5 years. Finding some pretty gross things as I clean it up.
Plenty more bad things to figure out as I get this beauty back up and running the way she should be

Pros:
Big turbo :laughing:
Runs very strong for a car that has been through a lot
Sweet BBS wheels!
Stage 3 clutch (six puck I beleive)
LW flywheel
Samco hoses
Someone took the time to put a front mount intercooler on.

Noo I couldn't do it just yet. This car is SOOO SWEET!
It's such a sleeper too. Kevin drove it back from Missoula and he screamed past me at 135!!
It has so much potential

Well today the spark plugs got pulled and boy... Do people ever replace things like that?? I will upload a picture later of the best of the horrible spark plugs.

The wiring is an absolute god awful mess... Its time to get a Bently.

Looks like a fun car. Do something about that air filter.
