1990 Pontiac Sunbird GT 2.0 OHC turbo from North America
Summary:
Hot little sleeper!
Faults:
One can expect a car with this many Km's on it to have some problems, but so far the only major thing is my transmission.
Either it is my synchro-gear, or the aluminum teeth on the gears.
I've replaced the alternator, and front rotors.
General Comments:
This has been a great little car.
One of the best points, is it has great looks, it's hard to believe the car is 11 years old.
Performance is pretty good, I have to do a few minor adjustments to my turbo.
Inside the car is will put-together, and comfortable.
The fold down rear seats are perfect for my subs.
A lot of people have offered me good money for my car, but I will not sell it.
When all is said and done, when you nail on the gas, and gear down, you get going mighty quick!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I'm a 20 year old female and just got a 1990 Pontiac Sunbird GT Turbo, automatic and it needs a lot of work done to it. I need a little help with this one; I know a little bit about cars, but I could use some help. If anyone one has any information it would be greatly helpful. I can be reach by E-mail at
Smidget_82@Hotmail.com. Although I did fall in love with this car even though right now it needs a lot of work, it will be all worth it in the end. I don't think I would ever sell my car either they are a great car. I don't know about the speed, but I'm not a speed person with good reason.
Thanks Very Much
Tiffany.

Hey, I have a 90 Sunbird GT Turbo and man I have the same problem with the transmission, my synchros are gone on third gear, and that's probably the same problem in your car. But I must quote that the car really does move in 2nd gear. Hehehe.
