Gear shift is a bit rough.
The rear sags a bit.
Slight rust below on the passenger & driver doors.
Slight rust on the boot & roof.
In 1986 it had a 2.6 liter Astron unleaded engine put in because the original one probably blew.
This engine has a cylinder out, so I have to be careful to not over rev the car, and just look after it.
How's it going, I have a GJ sigma with a 2L 5 speed in it. It only goes 140 until I put a balance eliminator kit on, it's guaranteed to give you 14bhp. The head speeds of 168 were reached revving the living crap out of it until I put a five speed in it, huge rev drops at top speed meant easier running.
Besides the rust they're brilliant cars, heavy steering is a problem though.
I have an '83 GJ 2.6 5 speed. Just wondering where you got the balance eliminator kit from? and roughly how much? Yes they are fantastic cars and fun to drive, could do with power steering in mine though. I will fit it once I find a complete kit at the wreckers.
Thanks guys!
