Just a slight bump, haven't been able to come up with anything local (or near-local). Just seeing if anyone has, or has come across, what I'm looking for?

Selling 1986 blue running, driving, manual transmission XR. Starts on first crank everytime. Strong runner with mods. Going to Kansas in about 8 weeks. Delivery is doable Give a call for additional details, mods, photos, videos & wallet friendly price within budget. 847-688-1234 Sent you a PM.

Stating your budget could get a few people interested. Are you looking for a stock or modified, low/high mileage, crusty or minty..... Fair point. Only based on what I've purchased them for before, I'd be aiming to stay near the $3-4,000 range for a clean example (with some wiggle room available). ...

As the title states, I’m probably in the market for another XR4Ti. Only mandatory thing is that it be a manual. I’d much prefer a running/driving example, as I don’t have the means to transport. If the condition and price is right, 3rd party transport could possibly be arranged. I’m located in Kansa...

Mine definitely got a fair amount of attention, especially at the euro car meets. Everyone was surprised it was more"euro" than their Volkswagen's and Audi's. But most of the attention came from older guys who had had them or knew people that did, never found someone who disliked the car, ...

That's beyond awesome. Anyone playing hockey on the roof?

If it helps any, my buddy is doing a 5.3 swap in a 2.3 auto notch back mustang, the 5.3 (all aluminum) weighs less than the stock 2.3 setup.

I'm all about the vw's, have had 4 (3 mk2, 1 mk3) in the past few years. Of everything I've owned, I've been most attached to them. I don't understand the cabrio thing though, but I'm against most convertibles so my opinion isn't valid. Is it an 8v or 16? And CIS (mechanical) or digifant (electronic...

Edit: I apparently can't read.

Which brown wires are we talking about?

The horn on my XR hasn't worked since I bought it, checked fuse when I bought it and it was good so I've pretty much ignored it until now. Anyways when I installed my new euro turn signal switch I found a couple wires I can't figure out where they go. http://i.imgur.com/vaQlR8t.jpg?1 These come out ...

I'm in the Waldo/Brookside area of Kansas City, there's another member who doesn't post often that isn't far from me.

I'll be honest, I haven't actually looked. I just remember the IHI downpipe I had made, figured the T3 would be similar.

Since my tax return is here and I've been itching on waking up the XR, I wanted some opinions on whether or not I had a decent start point. I know for certain I'll be picking up one of Merkur Depot's radiator/IC combos, the hot side piping kit, and the silicone BOV adapter. From there I was leaning ...

the condenser and intercooler would take up the same space in the engine bay most likely. Rather then starting a new thread, has anyone adapted this intercooler to work on the XR's? I've searched but came up with nothing, I've verified it is the same intercooler that stinger advertises on their web...
