monica Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) Hello Everyone My name is Monica! I am from the SF Bay Area. I just got my first Starion 86' Turbo. My previous cars before were a RWD 81 corolla and 91 Supra turbo. My starion is allllll stock and is 5spd manual. White exterior/ Burgundy interior. My boyfriend and I been under the hood for replacing parts: Alternator and alternator belt, battery, water pump, themorstat, distributor,valve cover gasket, turbo gasket and exhaust manifold gasket, and the spark plugs and spark plug wires. We are next going to do the rod bearings because it is slightly knocking. I just got a scytek alarm installed and an aftermarket radio and my hello kitty shiftknob.

tankbob Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Goals for the car? If youre staying stock and just fixing it up for now Id look into what you can swap from the 88/89 otherwise youve got this entire forum to learn up on getting more power.

tankbob Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Cool wheels, dam shame they arnt staggered. If your suspension isnt trashed like mine was when I bought it Id bet some lower profile performance tires would do you good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
