- Background
- Got the car super cheap, it had some weird problems, was a bit beaten up an neglected. Fixed crucial problems in 3 months then started going around with the car, after 2,000 miles with me, did a general big service (timing, oil, water pump etc.), and after another 1,500 miles did the EU-spec turbo convert. Since the turbo convert, I am putting the car away every winter and work on it. These winters I changed to EVO 8 internals, upgraded the suspension, brakes, cooling and welded the chassis, and finished with a new coat of paint.
