look what $400 can buy you in a "flyover" state...
plus the fact that the owner received a citation from his city for having a non-registered car sitting in his yard for too long helped tilting the situation in my favor
 so I grabbed the deal!actually, it was $800 but i bought her in partnership wiht a buddy of mine who's interested in the wheels only (with spankin' new rubbers on them btw) this car was a godsend for me: i've been looking for a car with grey interior and trim without any chrome for about 4 yrs now... and found her in "turbo"??? i'm agnostic, but: thank you GOD!  anyways, it's an '90 with 194K and TD04-13C that blows oil around the turbo seals, even if it was rebuilt 20K miles ago  the bad news is: LH 2.4 good news: K motor overall i'm very happy that has no rust i'll start researching first about what performance improvements are doable on 2.4 (i've owned only cars with 2.2 so far), but definitely i wanna stay bosch efi.

nice car, I would search some nice wheels first....
And I would look at the oil feed and return of the turbo, there is something wrong..

Nice find! Glad the heat is taken off me for finding my wagon for a similar deal.
 VX cam does pretty well in mine at 4d advanced but it's an auto. My findings so far after the obvious sways and Bil's(already on mine though), would be a 3" exhaust. Don't bother trying to tweak the timing either...it doesn't happen easily like the earlier 2.2. :(
