Hi everyone. Just bought the 92 you see in my avatar. It's got 150,000 and 10,000 on the engine rebuild. It has an evo III turbo, 2.5 straight exhaust. When rebuilt the engine got forged pistons, new bearings, pumps, hoses and zero tick lifters. 6 puck clutch, light weight flywheel, strut braces, and k-sport rally coilovers. It also has 2 sets of wheels, enkies with all seasons and stock with snow tires. Sounds like a tank rumbling down the highway! Paid $3,200. Good deal?
I wasn't specifically looking for a tsi, I just needed a back up car for occasional use that would also be fun. I used to autocross and do track days, I've had a few miatas. Next week I'm going to my first rallycross event in Washington, so this car came with a new hobby! I figure I can get normal/track tires mounted on one set of the rims and lower the ride height down if I ever want to do a track day.
I heard these cars push, but after a few minutes of back road driving I got and distinct feeling if oversteer. I liked it!
