    What did you do to your GN today?

    Hooked up the battery tender and put the cover on my '87 Turbo T. That pretty much takes care of this year!

    Positive or Negative?

    Dumb question from a Noob. When working on electrical do you disconnect the positive or negative battery terminal? I just installed a disconnect to the positive side because it was easier to get to and I didn't /don't think it really matters. But, a "friend" said it was a bad move. So, what do...

    Correcto!!!

    That's a good one! The only thing wrong is the Michigan reference. The last white guy living in Detroit was a liberal Democrat so he didn't believe in private ownership of guns. He was raped and murdered last December. Now, if he was a West Michigainian or a Yooper, having that small amount of...

    Cool Weather

    What a beautiful day! Drove the 87 Regal T to church this morning. Sky clear blue, temp about 35 F. The beast ran better than it has all year! Idle was smooth as a baby's butt and the turbo pushed me back in the seat just as nice as could be. I almost skipped church and kept driving.

    white text on a yellow button...

    I agree! My first gen Ipad doesn't like the white on yellow either. I can dim it by tapping the yellow but then the rest of the screen is dimmed also. Whine over.

    What point does one need a rear end girdle?

    You mean things on these actually break? Before I bought mine, I was told Black Cars are tough and last forever. Now it looks like that was a lie!

    Scanned this for you guys before it went in the trash

    Last September I bought my first 87 T type. It went to three car shows this summer. I realized after the first show that most folks have no idea what these cars are. I'm sure other owners have noticed that also. The last show had a GNX clone entered. It was a perfect clone but the owner had it...

    What did you do to your GN today?

    Put an air freshner in my 87 T type. It probably won't help much but I have to start somewhere. Last week I rewired the Scanmaster and the Vacuum/Boost gauge. Well somehow I managed to overload the 14 ga. wire and it filled the car with smoke. I pulled over and yanked the smoldering wires...

    The joy ride might be over.

    Any kids or step/kids? When my wife passed almost 9 yrs ago, her "adult" kids from her first marriage, became total butheads. The step daughter talked so much she made it easy to change my will. Now neither of them talk to me or come around. It's amazing what money will do at a time like this.

    You guys ever take your car on long road trips?

    Last fall I drove my 87 T type to a family reunion. I must have put over a hundred miles on it that day! The scary thing is I have to drive through Amish country to get there. Try as I might couldn't miss all the road apples. Washed the Beast as soon as I got home.

    New here from MI

    Welcome to the wonderful world of Regal Turbos! I'm new to this also. Bought my 87 T Type a year ago. I've been living under the hood for the last few weeks. It seems like in order to fix one problem I have to fix a few other things too. Anyway, welcome again from Fred in Wyoming, Mi.

    speeding ticket

    I thought we were exempt from speeding tickets! Everyone knows these turbos run more effiently at 80mph. So we are just trying to save the environment. Good luck with your ticket!
