ok this is my favorite car of all time. it looks badass and is amazinly fast. they are easy to make go fast, with a few mods i have seen them run 11.8's at the strip just from a new downpipe, intercooloer and chip. the car would actually run almost the exact same 1/4 mile time and 0-60 time as the porsche 930 of the time. with a stock 1/4 of 13.7 (under rated) and a 0-60 of 4.7. i was wondering what everybody else thinks of this car

they were about the most amazing thing on the street in 86. I found a regal sport in a junk yard mangled a few years ago, and pulled the engine (basically the same as what was in the GN), and changed the intake to a Kenny Boyce dual side draft setup. I also got the turbo headers from Boyce, but the engine is still on a stand. I have never done anything with it

i almost had a buick regal t-type that had the same motor as the GN but the guy got into an accident with it and the car was in bad shape when i went to see it. it was kinda a downer cause now i have my truck and would def rather have that car

ya.....i love the car my uncle has one with less than 10000 miles on it....he take it out every so often.....all original.....apparently he told me that a guy offered him a GT2 for it but he declined the offer......idk much about the worth of this car though

The one I found was a t type sport (I think sport just meant cosmetic options). I was planning on dropping the engine in a datsun mini truck for my dad, but it never happened

Many of the t type regals had carbs, and were detuned. The restricted exhaust and tight torque converter were not condusive to good turbo operation... This would explain why I went with an aftermarket intake and exhaust

ive always loved them, if they werent so popular they would be the ultimate sleeper, great cars, i would very much enjoy owning one

GNX is kick ***. I love that car. Sucks that they made so little. I remeber watching a show on it where 2 crews had to make a faster one, then they raced' um!

i saw that show and thats when i got hooked

Just a thought How about you edit to GNX (you know the whole Grand National thing) Then I will remove this post and no one will know that you spell as poorly as I do

You know what i ment! lol
