Have just purchased 89 250 bhp turbo.I have noticed that the brakes look bigger than my 87 turbo i used to own.What is the standard spec for a 89 turbo(I know it has more power,but not sure about the rest!)
Thanks for any help,
Andrew.
 
Compared with a 220 car:
  • Bigger disks and callipers (and crucially the calliper mount that allows upgrade to "big red" or "big black" brakes)
  • Bigger KKK K26/8 vs. K26/6 turbo, slightly higher boost as standard
  • Hardened 1st and 2nd gear ratios, thicker driveshafts
  • Standard LSD with oil cooler on transaxle
  • Thicker anti-roll bars
  • MY'89 only had standard Koni adjustable suspension (M030 option otherwise)
  • 180mph speedo vs. 160mph
  • Usually leather interior (standard from MY'89 on?)
  • 2 vacuum connection banjos on inlet manifold vs. 1
  • ABS and later offset hubs to allow for that (compared with original MY'86 Turbos)
Probably missed some bits others will doubtless add.
 
Thanks Fen.
I did not realise it had all of that! Considering how little it cost to buy compared with 911s i have had,i think it is so much car for the money!
Thanks again,
Andrew.
 
Leather was not standard for all markets.

Turbo 250 has "stiffeners" on the front members.
