Hey everyone! Up for sale is my 1986 Buick Regal T-Type. This T-Type has been a Texas car it’s whole life until 2 years ago when it was moved here and kept in a heated and dehumidified garage while the entire car was overhauled. No expense was spared while building this car! Body is RUST-FREE and has 97k original miles with only one repaint and still looks great! Engine and all parts have less than 500 miles on them. Transmission has 50 miles on it, yes 50 miles and was just done by Jimmy’s Performance Transmission in Mudelein, IL. If you’re into the Turbo Buick scene you’ll know that Jimmy’s is the only place in the Midwest you want your 200-4R done at. Here is a list of things done to the T-Type: -#’s matching motor/transmission -Stock block, rebuilt, king bearings, new front cover, high pressure oil pump, water pump, Cometic head gaskets and Felpro gaskets throughout engine. This is a stock rotating assembly. Heads have been completely rebuilt with new guides, seals, valve job with new Manley Stainless valves and 100# valve springs. -Painted heads and block black, powder coated the upper and lower intake. -Brand New Jimmy’s Performance Transmissions 2004-R Transmission and Jimmy’s Torque converter. Fresh with 50 miles on the while setup! This was build to handle mid-10 second ET’s. -Brand new Billet Precision 58/58 turbo with HD actuator. -Converted to E85, all new stainless lines, braided from tank to fuel rail and the return as well from rail back to tank, Racetronix Dual In-tank Pump System G7X 510LPH, G7 DP Fuel Pump Wiring Harness, Fuel Pump Sender, G7, 2x255LPH Pumps AN, Pressure Switch, 4PSI, SPST M/P280S, Hobbs Interface Harness 72" -- DPK, body ground kit.th brand new AN fittings. -8an feed with -6an return. -Brand new ignition module and ignition coil -Brand new stock fuel tank. -Turbotweak 80 lb/hr injectors with integrated wideband correction -Innovate LC1 Wideband -Poly engine mounts. -Rebuilt powermaster brake system, brand new motor, brand new accumulator ball. -New calipers up front, and has the original aluminum rear brake drums.

WAY TOO MUCH to list! I have tons of receipts! I still have a few things left to finish on the car but nothing that will stop anyone from driving it and turning heads! Here are a few things that are next on my list. It needs a new headliner, needs new rubber trim around doors/windows/trunk (there are complete kits made that are easy to install). Typical stuff you’d see on a 28 year old Texas car. Also passenger power window motor is slow, I would replace this sooner than later. These cars are getting harder to find, and are very hard to find in this shape. There are tens of thousands of dollars into this car in addition to originally buying it. This setup is enough to run into the 10’s all day long. Build with the intention of running 28#’s of boost. Currently on 22psi boost. You could run this on regular 93 octane gas with a different chip (very easy to get and not expensive). E85 is cheap by me and is the choice of fuel for forced induction. I have many more pictures of this car, I’ll send them to serious buyers upon request. If you have any questions please message me or call/text me @ 847-420-31FiveOne
Thanks, Tim Search words: Grand National, GNX, WE4 |

Buick might be getting a logo makeover
Fri, 23 Nov 2012General Motors has finished off an extensive model overhaul for its Buick division, but along with its updated cars, the brand might also be getting a new logo. According to the Detroit Free Press, GM North America President Mark Reuss indicated that the Buick tri-shield logo could be getting a makeover, but offered no further information.
It is unlikely Buick will completely redesign or replace its current logo, but the article seems to indicate that it might return to color; although all chrome now, the logo used to feature red, white and blue shields. Head on over to the Detroit Free Press article to look at some past Buick logos including one from 1904.
2014 Buick Regal GS AWD
Thu, 27 Feb 2014"This is just silly," I said as I laughed my way sideways around the icy track at Circuit ICAR, a racecourse, drag strip and kart track at the Montreal-Mirabel International Airport in Quebec. It wasn't the activity that had me cracking up, though. After all, winter driving experiences aren't uncommon in this business.
No, in this particular case, it was the car that had me chuckling. I wasn't in a mad hot hatch or a rally-derived rocket - I was in a Buick. The 2014 Regal GS, to be more precise. Somehow, despite its recent product renaissance (not to mention its distant - yet storied - history of performance models), I was having a hard time believing that this attractive, turbocharged, all-wheel-drive sedan sliding around the Great White North could possibly be wearing a Tri-Shield badge on its nose.
But it was, and slide about it did. While having access to a vehicle in this setting is fairly rare, what's rarer is the fact that I've had so much exposure to it. In Mr. Ewing's recent Volkswagen Golf R drive story, for instance, his ice capades were his first experience with the new model. In my case, though, I was lucky enough to first test the refreshed Regal GS for a week back in December before flying to Quebec to drive it on the snowy, icy, winding roads of Canada's most fiercely independent province and on the track at Mirabel.
Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.
