NA inner fender, Turbo inner fender..... Any difference?

[jdpolzin]

Just wondering of there is any difference between the pass inner fender in a NA car versus our cars? I cant tell any difference.

I don't know about the driver's side, but the passenger is the same so I would assume the driver's is too. THe only difference with the passenger side is the four holes that have to be drilled. two for the relay bracket and two that were just there for no reason, but i drilled them anyway. I made a template of the holes, worked great. The plastic fenderwell on the other hand IS DIFFERENT. It has a mount for a map sensor, and it doesn't have the correct mold for the a/c cannister(brain fart can't think of what it is) but u get the picture, might work but beings mine only had a chip busted out of it I threw it back on.

Ok, it looks like the NA one has a couple humps just behind the coolant reseviour that the one on my GN doesnt have??

[usetaboost]

are u talking about the plastic inner well or the inner fender?

[jdpolzin]

yeah the plastic inner, I'm sorry!

[usetaboost]

Yeah they are different, not saying u can't make it work but they are different. I u absolutely need to use it you'll have to cut down the map sensor mount if that is on there, those are the "humps" you're talking about. Then u would probably end upwith holes in the well. I had one of those I thought I was going to use but like I said, mine only hada quarter sized chip in it so I put it on. The lower plastic part that unbolts is the same on those if u want to keep that for a spare, I did. It's youre call what u wanna do with it!

The plastic liner on the driver side is different as it has no provision to mount the PS reservoir.

I have a NOS N/A one and it has raised pedestals that the turbo cars don't have.

[jdpolzin]

Hmmm what is the reason for the raised parts?

You can use the NA ones in a pinch. 81-87 coupes and sedans use the same wheelhouses. They all have the provissions for the PS reservior and cruise control servo EXCEPT the one used on a 1981. 82 and newer have them. The difference on the left side is that the turbo one has a molded cut out on the side to clear the turbo spec air cleaner assembly that mounts on the frame rail. The NA is molded straight in that area.If you are running a K&N or big mouth than the turbo spec wheelhouse is not needed. The only difference on the right side are the humps molded on the top. The NA uses the humps or bosses to mount the ESC module and some relays. I used them to mount my 3 Bar MAP sensor for the TurboLink.
