<![CDATA[Looking at a 1989 Dodge colt GT turbo, opinions??]]>hey all, I am looking at a 1989 dodge colt GT trubo 5 speed that the guy put up on a curb so the front passengers side wheel is bent back a little, as in a few inches. What sort of suspension does this car use? typical strut and lower control arm? possibly an easy fix?

Are these fun cars? looks about the size of a metro, except with 135HP. Im assuming T2 turbo, maybe T25? what are my performance options? just jumping up the boost and installing an intercooler with a turbo back exhaust? looks like a fun lil car.

The guy only wants $100 for it, so Ill probably buy it anyway. Would a 4g63 bolt into this? 😄 and for all of you wanting to snake this from underneath me, HA! its in minneapolis and I won't tell where!

i know the turbo on them is really small...
