I have an 89' GTUs, I was seriously considering buying a series 5, turbo engine for it from japan, any help on this would be nice, or should I just port a NA??



Thanks

There is a HUGE amount of work to transfer the car from n/a to turbo. Would save you a lot of headaches and sweat if you just bought the turbo version https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/unsure.png

the money you put into the car you will not get back out.... i suggest buying a TII you can find them cheap if you look hard https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

i've got an 89' GTUs, and was gonna get a 91' turbo engine, why kind of work is involved?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.



you have a GTUs one of the rarest second gen's leave it alone!!!!! if you want turbo please sell it and buy a TII..... don't destroy a special car. you will also KILL resale value. you don't know how many people want GTUs they kick ass for N/A https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

Well, the GTUs has a large ding on the passenger rear panel. and it would be best for turbo swap i figure, since it has many turbo II parts already. How much you think it coule be sold for with a big ding in the back??

$2000

what do you mean big ding ?

Daiv Makitsu 08-07-2002 09:49 PM

it got side swipped by a van, all near the gas door is hit, but you can still get gas just fine

personally. i would sell it and let somebody restore it. its still worth alot of money!
