once you learn, i'd say they are very easy to work on.

I got my '88 GTU for $3k with only 80,000 on it. It's not a turbo, but it's still a lot of fun.

Thumbs up

do some research on rotary engines, there just as easy to work on as a piston motor is ,ive havnt been able to find a turbo2 yet except for a wrecked one down the street from me(it was totalled!) if you want a turbo2 wait and be patient, and if its the turbo you want dont buy a n/a and dont assume it can just be turbo charged either, that was my mistake, big mistake , do not buy one off a kid either, or any car for that matter,lol if you want one bad enough you'll find one

heres a good website for you. www.beyhondtheredline.fd3s.net and www.autotrader.com good luck

I got lucky on mine, it was owned by some older lady who took it to the dealership for EVERYTHING, meaning i now have ALL the original receipts!

she invested over 10k into the car, for tune ups, small problems, etc... even had my engine rebuilt (by hayes ) on her expense... :bigok:



I figure it was almost like getting it new, for how much she put into it.

and it was an old lady, so im sure she didnt tear it up much
