    Looking to change auto to manual.

    Yeah, am buying a new turbo clutch. Can I use the non-turbo flywheel?

    Thanks. Is there any problem with the console? or will it fit as is?

    Looking to change auto to manual.

    I'm gonna have to get a NEW clutch. Where would you guys get one? Also, center console, is the stick position different at all? Do I need to find another one? Thanks

    Looking to change auto to manual.

    I've seen people mention wiring harnesses, but not engine harnesses. Same thing? Will the auto ECU work for manual (as I've seen in other threads)?

    Looking to change auto to manual.

    89 turbo w/abs. Have found a tranny in a nearby yard. However I know I need master cylinder, flywheel, pedal assy, drivesahft. At that same yard they have a full NON-turbo car. Could I use those parts from that car in my turbo? Is there anything else I need? Thanks.

    Water leak, trying to get the parts.

    Can anyone help me get some parts online? So I need a heater control valve and the hose that runs from it to the back of the cylinder head. No stores around here sell them and my dealer wants 40+150 for them. Insane. Would I be able to get these online? or am I sol and jwf?

    Coolant level light. The bird keeps escaping!

    Absolutely. However after tonight's commute home (8-10 miles) it doesn't need to be in action until next Thursday. Plenty of time to track it down really.

    Coolant level light. The bird keeps escaping!

    I've been married a little while now and believe me I know. I wouldn't have posted that even if I thought there was a 1% chance of her seeing that!

    Coolant level light. The bird keeps escaping!

    I'm talking just going to the car, popping the hood and looking at the reservoir tank level. I guess my car isn't in imminent danger, right?

    Coolant level light. The bird keeps escaping!

    I'll give it all a look tonight. Wife refuses to do it (even to pop the hood and look at the level), she's in lazy bitch mode. :( I wanna track this down dammit!

    Where the coolant enters the tank? that rubber?

    Coolant level light. The bird keeps escaping!

    That's exactly what I wanted! Thanks! According to the TSRM it needs to be between the full and low lines. Are those lines easily visible? When cold (been sitting there a few hours) what level should it be at? And the float, what am I looking for?

    Coolant level light. The bird keeps escaping!

    I'd like to know where the coolant resorvoir is. Is it easily accessible? My wife has the car right now and I'd like to be able to tell her where to look today.

    Coolant level light. The bird keeps escaping!

    I topped off the radiator. Where's the overflow? (89, turbo) And when you say float do you literally mean something bobbing up and down in there? (dumb lolol) Just looking at the TSRM. It might be the actual reservoir as opposed to the radiator. So I don't think I have a leak, what could have...

    Coolant level light. The bird keeps escaping!

    Well yesterday the coolant level light starting coming on and off intermittently. Topped off the anti-freeze and it stayed off for a day. It started popping on and off intermittently again the next day. Still full to the brim and the engine temp is fine. Any ideas? NB: I also have a...

    Ahh I just googled that process. Sounds good. I'll try to find one.

    Aftermarket much more expensive or not?

    The restoration proceeds. Body advice please.

    Lets say I'm going to replace the hood. Are there any 3rd parties that would be cheaper than going OEM?
