Hi all,
Just bought my first gtir about a month ago, after years of wanting one. Happy is an understatement, however, It needs a fair bit of tlc which I'm starting this weekend, any tips, advice and common issues to look out for would be greatly appreciated.
There are a few patches that need cutting and welding underneath, the door sills need cutting and welding or replacing if anyone knows of where to get replacements from. Then there's some bubbly arches which I will cut and weld patches on. I will take pictures as I go and try to keep a log of the work.
As for the engine, from what I can tell its pretty sound, just need to replace a turbo gasket (not sure which one yet).
