edrach Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 An '89 turbo wagon showed up at Lynnwood PAP yesterday. Other than the turbo assembly, it's still reasonably intact. No fancy wheels of LSD diff. But it is 4WD with an automatic tranny. Seems to have recent shocks all around as well as front axles. Gen2 heads with evidence of recent work on the driver's side of the engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Should have rear discs too, and possibly a rear sway bar! GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 No rear sway bar with an AT, remember? You have one in your driveway right now :-p Its too far away and not good timing tho. The motor sounds like its a possible core maybe. Is the car wrecked Ed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrach Posted August 26, 2004 Author Share Posted August 26, 2004 Car was not wrecked. Yes, the rear disks are still there as of today. No rear sway bar with an AT, remember?

Turbone Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Well, its either the engine or tranny thats bad. But considering the engine just had work done on it, who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrach Posted August 26, 2004 Author Share Posted August 26, 2004 Car was pretty high mileage for a turbo...over 200K on the odo. Must have been running pretty well for the previous owner to do shocks, axles and some engine work. Well, its either the engine or tranny thats bad.

Turbone Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Well then it just could be the tranny. Maybe thought it was going to nickle and dime them to death, so they got rid of it when it stopped shifting right. I wish I could look at it, but I just cant do it Stupid addiction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 200k the engine is just getting broke in ( ), the 86 sedan that I just sold had over 235k and was running fine when it left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Caleb, it must be an option then. I have looked at several turbo's in the yard and have seen other AT's that dont have them either. Go figure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Must be an option - I looked, and the one in my driveway has one too. YAY! Another upgrade for my Brat. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
