I have an 85 T that came factory black. Someone painted it to look like GN trim. If i wanted to restore the factory look, does anyone know what that is? Any pics of one to follow? I.E. chrome bumpers, moldings, etc.

Found this on ebay, someone selling a T as a GN. Asking good money too. Mismatched fender trim, badges, etc. Vehicle report shows it a T-Type. http://www.ebay.com/itm/231100005615?forcerRptr=true&item=231100005615&viewitem=

Although i am all about keeping things stock, it seems like with a IC conversion the bolt-ons are a bit cheaper for the HP gains. I want a low 13 or high 12 second car. any opinions if i should convert it? Just the ported intake along is $750 for the hot air, no less the countless other items...

Just got a car that needed a bunch of work to get it running just to find out the engine is shot. Going to have to rebuild. Whats parts can be done at home and what do you recommend having a machine shop do? I am very mechanically inclined but just haven't built out a motor yet. Any...

My oil feed line broke just off the connector on the bottom of the engine. I removed all but the part that goes into what looks like a brass block on the engine block. No matter what i do i cant unscrew what is left of the line. I have tried wrenches, vice grips, etc. Is there a trick to this? I...

Question on routing. Basically the MAP sensor is in a T with the cruise and goes into the middle rear of the vacuum block. and no where in the vacuum diagram does it call for that. On the back of the intake there is a connector that goes to the fuel regulator. One side of that T is capped off. I...

I thought i saw in a view pics / vids of people leaving the wheel well trim off when redoing the car. Anyone like this or think it looks cleaner?

Got the car apart and turbo out for maintenance. I have the valve cover loose but i cant get it out. Do i have to remove the AC/Alt bracket to do so? What a pain. Thanks.

I was trying to replace the PCV grommet and it crumbled and about 1/2 fell into the hole. Looking at the intake it appears as if this would be the valley pan area underneath and no where in the actual intake tract. Can i leave this be and put back together? Thanks, Kaine

Is it common for the Tack and Boost to go almost half way and really not do much? Is there a track of wiring that i can check for corrosion that is obvious. Not sure where this stuff in finally connected to. Also what is the vacuum line the comes in from the firewall and goes into the column...

As the title says, i learned about him in the Black Air movie and realized im not that far from him. Maybe an hour. Is his place a real shop and can you stop there, do you need an appointment, can you buy parts from him? Does he do work on them anymore? Thanks

As you may have read i bought a gnat clone t-type in pretty rusty shape. No frame damage but rust everywhere. I have 3 things i can do, bear in mind i paid 3k for the car. (1) Frame off restore, needs a bit of metal work (lots of time, effort, and major money) (2) Pull drive train and place in...

Been looking around and it seems allot of the cars in show condition have the fiberglass nose at the very least. I think it looks very clean. Wondering if anyone has fiberglass bumpers hoods, etc and what is your thought of them on a daily driver? Thanks.

Meaning is the body, frame, and suspension the same for all Regals no matter what drive train and trim package they got? This is assuming stock.

Broke my turbo last night trying to rebuild and need a replacement. Anyone have a decently priced one? In a bit of a bind. Thanks, Kaine

As you might of read my other thread, i bought what i thought was a decent T-Type off of eBay. It turned out to be a bit worse than i thought. Today i tore into it and replaced all of the vacuum and gas lines. I bought a rebuild kit for the turbo. - While trying to replace the PCV grommet it...

Anyone know a good resource and how to look the specifics up. I removed the turbo (hot air) to rebuild and i need : Turbo drain grommet Throttle housing to turbo gasket Exhaust to Turbo gasket(s). Any gasket i am forgetting Thanks

My dreams of owning a Turbo Regal went up in flames as soon a the pile of rust was delivered. I thought i was buying a car with a little rust in the common areas as i owned a monte ss back in the day that had the same issue. Turns out this car must have been a flood and is heavily rusted in and...

85 200/300 - > 87 245/355. What can i do to get to the later grand national power that is cheap and a good recipe? Thanks!

New member so a big hello first. I think i am getting an 85 TT that needs some love. Always wanted a GN and this is the closest i will get. So lots of work to do in the next years. Anyway PO put GN stickers on the car to make it look like one. Is this frowned upon in the community?
