Post subject: | A night working on the '89 colt GT |
Well my buddy finally aquired a original 89 GT. Its black and in decent shape. The paint has some fading areas and one of the fenders is chipped up a little from the door. There is a small dent in the rear hatch and the front grill is broken. It runs really strong and only has 183 k on it (km's). Everything is stock right now but we have FMIC, 450cc, DSM link, 16G evo turbo, 2G o2 housing, Aeromotive FPR, walbro 255, MBC. The night we took these pictures we custom made a BOV re-circulaton pipe so it would run good again. For some reason the previous owner thought it was a good idea to throw the stock one away for the "ricer" effect. jeesh, dang idiot. So we looked at what was going to be required to put the SMIC in and you have to cut quite a bit of metal and bumper out in order to fit it. He decided not to hack up the original bumper or subframe and opt to just go fmic right away. He is going to run the 1.6L till she blows and then swap in a good 4g63. Anyways, the pictures. The purple colt (mine) has a 1990 4g63 6-bolt in it. It will be getting a FMIC, 650cc FIC, 3" GM mas and MAFT in the next month with a aeromotive FPR. It already has 2.5" exhuast, evo mani, MBC, Walbro 255 HP, K&N. and the purple colt "sleepy". I dont drive it in the winter so its very dusty and dirty. A good spring cleaning is in order. Thats it for now! More will be posted up as he upgrades it. |

I love coupes with 4G63's. I think its time for a new shift boot though in the black GT |

Nice looking Colt! What the hell happened to that shift boot, looks like someone had the poo-poo platter on it like 10 years ago and never cleaned it up. Haha. |

the fake leather is coming all off the fabric. I have seen lots of them in 3G colts that has this happening. |

fwiw, the stock boot was $15-20 from the dealership when I ordered one a couple years ago. |

Is your buddy "wsod" from the site here? I got an entry from him a while back, I assume the same car. Noticed the WSOD sticker on your car back window too, what does that mean? |
