Great Little Old BEHEMOTH
Headgasket blew - Got a mate to fix it. Big mistake.
Ignition Coil wire shorted.
Great First Car.
Make sure you know the history and don't get a Series III I have heard.
Seats don't go back enough for tall people.

A reliable, inexpensive car
Water pump broke down at 300000km (but what can you expect?).
I've had this car for several years now, and have seen others fall apart around it.
The engine isn't awfully powerful, but it keeps going and going and going.

Radiator leakage.
Roof aerial continually falls down when on a highway.
The car looks nice and sporty with spoilers, metallic silver duco and blacked out chrome with alloy wheels.
It's fun to drive.

You should have a look at http://autospeed.com/cms/article.html?&A=0427. This guy has a series 1 TRX. Apparently it does 1/4 mile in around 11 seconds, and has around 340hp at the wheels.
I have a Series 3 TRX, with SR20 turbo from an S13 Silvia.
It's doing 12.1 down the 1/4 mile, and at the moment it's getting lowered springs. If anyone has a chance of putting a turbo in a TRX, go for it!!!
I have a series 2 bluebird tr. x and it feels a lot better than the series 3 to drives, but I still wanna wack a turbo on it
Bobby.
I own a series 1 GL with 50000 on the clock.I've fitted a side draft Webber headers and a Waggot cam this car rev's its nut off. Its also being air born and in a puddle deep enough to fill all ash trays in the doors. only problem the spedo don't work in summer only winter. Never misses a beat.
Corrosion has now ruined the car (due to the salt on Norwegian roads).
Otherwise nothing has gone wrong since I bought the car in 1991.
The car is VERY slow, but its reliability is remarkable. I have done nothing with this car, but it never stops. I am very satisfied!

I have the same car but with a turbo on it running 14psi and producing 105kw at the wheels.
TRX's are much more fun with a turbo.
