    Hi Everyone! Am having some trouble starting my 3200. Have looked through the forum and tried some of the previous solutions but drawn a blank- any extra thoughts from any of you would be much appreciated before I have to call my specialist out. Just to run you my problem: Basically, the...

    Chipped Side Glass

    Upon another look at it today, I'm pretty sure it was an attempted break in- all the marks are on the drivers side, just forward of the lock. Fortunately they didn't seem to do any damage other than cosmetic, the locks still work. Probably chipped the glass with the end of the tool as they were...

    Chipped Side Glass

    Cracked turbo pipe/ extra loud turbo whoosh?

    Hi everyone, I'm a bit of a newbie here and have just introduced myself on the newbie forum. To cut a long story short I have a 2001 3200gt manual and am English but work in Sweden and have the 3200 with me in Gothenburg for the summer months. I've had the car 18 months and it has been...

    Hej from Sweden!

    Just saw the glaring auto correct errors- trying the GT capabilities of the car, not "gym" capabilities. That would be difficult at best
