New to TN...so please don't rape me...

:P
Hi guys...(and gurls if there are any)...

Just wanted to say wussup...name is Shan (pronouced Shawn), I've been checking the board out quite some time for parts (used to have corolla), and finally decided to sign my lazy ass up! Nice to see u guys are all cools...also know a couple of guys who are on here once in awhile....

As for my ride...well, used to have an '88 Civic with ZC motor, done up nicely, sold that...had an '87 Corolla during that time as well up until recently with jdm corrolla motor in it...from an '86 I beleive, not that fast but fun none the less...car gone now.

So currently i have a 2.0L 8v VW Golf with minor mods for everyday use and am ALMOST finished building my 87 Fiero GT...with 3.8L turbo motor and fully done suspension, exhaust, etc...should be fun when its done (Which was SUPPOSED to be this summer, but that didnt happen, so 2 weeks from now shoudl be it) Hope to give all your MR2 guys a run for your money! I think it owuld be fun to compare the dynamics of both the cars sometime on a track day...that is if i were allowed to come. Please let me know...

oh i also take mah bros suzuki sv650s out once in awhile :) not as crazy as a gsx-r but good enuff :)

Neways, thats about it...also, gurl i am currently seeing drives a Supra, non turbo...so ummm yeah...haha, kinda on here in case i need to find sumptin for her too...u know how it is, lol! I luv my Toyotas...mis mah corolla....

Also, please check out my company (website) for anything you guys need to buy or sell, i dont sell anything, the site is a new online classified ads site, mainly based in TO...FREE for all memebers to use.... www.tunerparts.net - its open to any and all enthusiats like ourselves, no matter what car u drive...

good choice :D ur a unique one
welcome to TN btw

thanx all

car is ideal setup for a project, and different....well plus i've driven one of everything, lol so :)

Do you have any pics? You've done what I had hoped to do (and more!) about a year ago. Unfortunately couldn't find an 87/88 GT down here (maritimes) that was in decent shape :-?

Sounds sweet! :thumbup:

Many didn't realize how good the performance was getting in the later model years, stock even. Possible reason for their demize :cry:

Cheers!

thanks man, yea i have a couple of pics someplace on my server space, have to dig'em up....car looks...different ;)
yah, GT's are fookin rare!!!

ya, they last 86-88 (esp 88 ) GTs were amazing handling, same performance (OR BETTER) on the skidpad as all the top model performance cars like lotus, porsche, ferrari, nsx, etc....same 0-30mph as diablo :D with 5spd V6....but of course we all know they were underpowered, but handled amazing...so i have done mine with all upgrades to bring it to same level as those supercars....now its just a matter of proving it works on the track, lol :D

Damn I'm jealous :) Keeping the hope alive.

Can't wait for the pics!

Cheers

haha sure man, here u go...jealous, haha dont be...FIRST i have to see if it runs properly, lol...then u can be :P

sorry no interior pics...let me put it back 2gether somewhat....this swap was not as easy as we thought it would be. ill try to get more full car pics later....i have more on my hard drive than these though....

heh, that turbo looks small when u see it in teh engine bay...but really...its almost the size of my head! haha

whaddya thinkz? :D ;)

oh yah! those are 18's....i have do have a big brake kit behind them ;)
ummm, and see hte last pic of the exhaust system...well that will be covered by an aluminum plate....with the intake filter and intercooler above it, mounted porsche style.....so when u pop the trunk, u see them and the motor....while turbo and exhaust hide underneath....u can only see turbo/wastegate if u know where to look.....

I like!

I can imagine it wasn't as 'easy' as you expected? :lol:

Be nice to see her all together and working!

18"s look tight

thanks

hey bud... welcome to TN

3.8 ?? :thumbup:

what is it from?
what engine management are you using?
how many pounds of boost for street?

welcome and thanks.

sure, no prob. (some other guy asked me too, the post is in the general disc. area)

bottom end is '93 3800L supercharged from bonneville ssei or gtp (same motor), head is from an 91 N/A 3800 cutlass, having this combo gives me all forged parts to handle boost, with better flwoing head from an NA car...so a 'hyrbid' motor so to speak, lol.

engine management system...i WAS gonna go SDS out of Calgary, but too much headache to install, but it was deal at $1800 CDN....compared to otehrs...so instaed, my guy rewired a 95 grandprix gtp ecu up to my fiero wiring harness and i have a custom chip made, for WAY cheaper....reprogramable ANY time thru a laptop. :)

boost...haha, ill let u know when its running! ;) ...... well we are aiming at 15 psi for my max....or however much motor can take. (the turbo im using came off an audi with a fully done motor.....it was runnign 25-28psi daily, 32-35psi track...no joke.)

tru. i see the thread now. lol.
