Just picked one up in MD
Car was a 1 owner with ~64,000 miles 1988 turbo 2
in pretty good shape no rotary experience wasn't even looking for another car as I already own a 3000gt sl for a winter beater and a Dakota RT with a 408cu in motor. But it was just to good and to cool to pass up I think I made out extremely well but I'll know more after I do some TLC I'll post more about it once I have the car in hand already have keys and title. Looking around for a few ideas I'm just not sure what I want to do with it. |

Sorry got it home Friday. Was hoping to get new plugs and wires on it to say it runs great because it kinda doesn't want to start now. but I was able to pick it up for a price that adjusted for the non original paint color and non starting. After reading I think the owner flooded it. Anyway here are the promised pics interior looks great his aftermarket tape deck never turns off which in turn obviously drains the battery. I've been spending all my time looking up common issues so I have an idea on where to start. O also it has a full racing beat exhaust apparently.

Unflooded the engine and put new plugs and wires in it. It had sat for 6 months and he was starting it every week but not letting it warm up said a month ago it got really hard then he couldn't get it.
Anyway it smoked for a bit but it eventually cleared up then I drove it around my yard some it's surprisingly torque. |
