it was a facelift, i had assumed it was the poor mans fx-gt, with none of the extra options?


You're right. My fx-gtv had power steering, but with wind up windows, and they also have a lighter flywheel than standard fxgts.


did the fxgtvs have rear strut braces as well? i heard that they did, where as the normal fxgts dont.

x2. Another random difference was the location of the dizzy. It was sitting further back, and higher up than the standard small port fxgts. I even had to buy a longer ignition lead when i got new leads. It was way to short to reach :?:
1988 r31 TI Skyline.
1982 ra60 Celica (my Aussie Toyota and axle stand warrior).
ex: 1991 Corolla, 1989 fxgt-v, 1985 aw11. 1992 sw20 gt-s. 2002 glxi Lancer wagon (work hack)
next car - another a-dub please!
