my 87 TII finally is on it's last leg. i barely have compression on the rear rotor now and the starter died from excessive cranking with the related hot start problem. also the car will barely push start!!! well that's what happens when you buy a j-spec and don't rebuild it before you install it! i will tear the car apart in the next few weeks to get it back up and running. for future reference always rebuild a j-spec no matter what!

87 FC TII 14.2@97mph mods are:RP dp,RP fcd,racing fuel pump,gutted cat,j-spec engine 88,ACT extreme clutch with 4 puck bronze. 13b-re single turbo conversion coming soon!


What the hell, a 13b-re single turbo conversion? You already have a single turbo on the FC.

If he wants to do a conversion then the one on e-bay in ohio would be good to get.

Yup, but it would be nice if the tail lights were good.
