Default Newbie from WA

Hi I'm a newbie to the 850's. I bought a 94 850 tubo wagon last week and so far it's really fun. Have had some noisy valve issues and working on that also want to replace all the "maintenance" stuff to get the car to ground zero for my records. Soon I will be doing timing belt, serp belt, cap rotor plugs, etc, etc. I had a 83 240 turbo wagon for 11 years and modded it quite a bit in the last five. The b21ft is a great little engine and I'm amazed at the hp the guys a turbobricks are getting. I just got tired of it and wanted to start over with something smoother and a more powerful platform. Just drivng the 850 t w/o mods is fun. The only thing i miss about my 240 is that i knoew every little thing that was wrong with it, which wasn't much so you can be content with it's future in a way. I'm excited to tune my 850 t and do some minor suspension mods down the road (sways, maybe springs, and definetly new shocks and struts).

GOOD TO BE HERE!!!
