� KYB sport suspension
� Custom strut mount camber kit (i'm selling them if anyone is interested)

I have looked, and still, you have the most modified Lemans. there is one 89 that is I believe in Mexico that I found on this website, the owner put a 1.8 liter from a corolla and a custom fitted bodykit, but I would not consider it original like yours.

I have tried to, but they are not sending me my authorization like what they are supposed to, I have tried it 3 times. I will try again. Thanx for the advise, I was going to ask you one more thing, I just recently found a recall report on my model year pertaining to an electrical problem with the transmission and driveshaft. It talked about the driveshaft vibrating abnormally at short times. Mine has been doing this and I found out this is whats causing the idle surge on my engine. Do you know what I could do to fix the electrical problem with the transmission?

My LeMans has the three speed automatic, so that will still mount to a 2.0 liter OHC turbo?
