9-5 chassis is far superior, but the hatchback is great to have.

Expect to need a direct ignition cassette at some point (many carry a spare), SID screen is probably missing pixels (search this site for BBA Reman for info on who to send it to for rebuild), crank position sensor, MAP sensor, maybe fuel pump, clutch cable, etc.

 

whats been done

So far he has replaced the brakes, tires, fuel pump, water pump, clutch cable, some belts(s) sid has been replaced, updated gearbox, radiator, etc..He kept going on and on. He is very anal about his cars so everyone tells me it will be perfect. He always fixed anything that was wrong. I still worry though!

 

Pics pics.

 

not until next friday =( i have to wait that long!!! in the mean time i have a 98 cavalier to sell for $1200 if anyone wants it.

 

expect a fantastic car!

 

1995 SE Turbo Coupe... hmm best year for NG in my opinion.

This will be a great car for you, and you can make this car a lot nicer with very little money via a tune and suspension upgrades.

 

Sounds nice. If you have a little money left over, you can make these cars a lot nicer to handle with some suspension upgrades.

 

Cool. i am sure it will be much better than the Cavalier I am driving now...I just really can't believe Im going to be in a Saab again. The sounds, the smells, the buttons, the turbo gauge...I probably would like to do minor upgrades. It already has a OG9-3 grill on it. I didnt look close and thought it was a 9-3 the first time I saw it (then I saw the back) It has the ivory interior, I prefer black but I cant complain. I need to order 2 rear speakers the seller says they are distorted. Where can I find these? Thanks for all the info guys, I am getting really excited. Wish I didnt have to wait a whole week!

Throw an aftermarket set in there, will sound better anyways.

Any 6X9 will fit in there, it is a deep dish.

 

So if i find one that fits it will work? I was under the impression that i had to have ones that work with the system? I dont know what I would get. I dont have a lot of money but I love good sound. I really loved the Harman Kardon in my 99 9-5 se and 03 9-5 arc. So that is what I would like to recreate as much as possible. Any suggestions?

 

Today is the day! He is calling me this afternoon and he is going to pick me up and go get the car! Pics to come soon....Im so excited to see it!

 

I also have a '95 900 SE, what suspension upgrades do you suggest?

 

using the search function

 

Ok here is the car with pics! It drives like a dream, and I just replaced the rear stock blown out speakers with some Infinity ones and it sounds much better. I ordered some Kickers 3.5" for the dash hopefully that helps too. Here are the pics I think its nice...It has some trouble spots in the paint her and there but...maybe a lil elbow grease.

 

forgot these!

 

Car looks great!

 

another problem is the left licesne plate light us rusted in there. And the 2 front seats are in bad condition. Hopefully I can find a couple seats somewhere. Does anyone know where I can fine a 96-98 reflector panel for the back? Thanks for viewing!! Happy Saabing!

 

Looking good! You even have some speedParts mats that can't be found anymore.
