I just joined today but I have been reading for about a year and a half. I have a 1990 red with tan ,sunroof,cd and leather 1G5WP14V26F217141. I just finished rebuilding the motor and the turbo. A valve seat came out of the head just before christmas and broke the piston and combustion chamber in the head. It only has 109,000 miles. Now i am looking for ideas to improve the performance. I put in the 1.6 rockers when the motor was going back together.

ARE YOU SURE? HIS 9TH DIGIT IS AN 8 AND MINE IS A 0. ALSO THE LAST SIX NUMBERS OF HIS VIN ARE MUCH HIGHER THAN MINE. ALSO, THERE ARE DIFFERENCES IN THE 4T60 AND THE 440T4. FOR INSTANCE, THERE IS ONE FIBER PLATE IN THE FOURTH CLUTCH ON THE 44O AND TWO ON THE 4T60. ALSO DIFFERENCES IN THE VALVE BODY.

Thanks Jay. Do you happen to remember if the interior was cloth or leather?

 

I've found a few new VIN's lately besides that one(mainly from a few craigslist cars). I'm planning on getting my vin numbers posted into an actual online database sometime soon...

No info on these cars. You probably have them already though.
