Florida_tgp. I have actually found a guy in Orlando with 2, a red one and a black one. He says that they both have the same problem with the Power Master system. Which is not to bad seeing as that my GN has the same system and I have two to spare. Now I need to get the money and I might buy them both. 8)

Quote from: turbo90gpNot to be an ass or try to scare you or anything, but the proper term is TGP. Many people will soon be on your behind about calling it s GTP as they are 2 completely differnt cars. Just a forwarning! When you do finally become a TGP owner, these boards will become very useful as the TGP is not an easy car to keep running!

You should try owning a Supra!! Head gaskets are done every oil change... My TGP was a godsend, even with its tranny eating habit.

Wow our troops having a cool chat. Though..I don't know what someof those letters are or Sv??numbers are? but cool to see some communication here.

Hay TurboGTU. It does get hard to understand (I get confused myself). Those of us in the Navy have short ways of saying just about everything. What are you intrested in knowing and maybe one of us can translate for you.

NOSfearato,

One more Navy guy to the chat. I'm at NASB in Me. I'm an SCPO and been in ME. for about 15 yrs, a P-3 Flight Engineer. I own a 95 GTP and will have a 90 TGP in a couple days now (dont think I an mixing up my GTP's and TGP's). What the hell is going on in Sig lately I've been deployed there alot in the past but now I'm teaching SERE. I love it here and might retire from here, maybe one more flat top, started with one go out on one. I want to get this TGP fixed up a bit, maybe keep it for a long time all depends on what it will take in $$$.

Nice to see another A/C bubba. I was a swimmer on H-46. I'm meddown for now. I'm at HS-7 here in Jax working the Phase/IMC shop. Hoping to get back in the air soon though.

Umm..Everything....Im code Eliterate... LOL.

That cool. Well for starters my rank and rate (job) is AE2(AW) which is an Avation Electriction Second Class, the (AW) at the end stands for Avation Warfare, that is a qualafication I have earned. I am equlvant to a Seargent in the Army, we are not really equal on the work level but pay wise we are the same. NASJAX stands for Navel Air Station Jacksonville, any thing with an "NAS" and two or three letters after is a Navel Air Station. What else I cannot remember what else we have said.

I hear that! I've got a few customers that own Turbocoupes, and they can get rather interesting.
