P4100003 This is the 1987 1.8Turbo, which will is slowly but steadily being modified for road/track with RSR suspension,upgraded turbo, special cams, management, intercooler and many other internal engine mods,all aiming for a reasonable and above all reliable 250-270hp with excellent driveability from about 2krpm. It already has an 8-point roll cage and some body lightening. All Evo-look panels have been received including a fiberglass hood and deck lid.

P4100004 Another view of the 1.8Turbo. Wheels were RONAL 7x15" which always look good on these cars but will not fit the shown Brembo red big-brake conversion so I got 3 more sets of wheels to play with: Compomotive MO 5x15" for trackday semislick tires, MO 8x15" for slicks and a set of Speedlines 6.5x16" from the 164Q4 for road tires!
