I take it you are refering to the 5GTT ?? If so, ph2`s took over from the ph1`s in 1988, and ran up untill 1991. The raider was identical to the standard ph2, other than colour coding

Thanks KRIS sorry yea a 5 GTT just Info is limited on them with out being a full member and I'm trying to get as much info on them as possible before i decide to buy or not
Best bit of advice i can say is just be careful about what car you look at and buy if you decide to get one, there's a few people out there that claim alot of things there car does that it clearly wouldn't and have been poorly tuned/repaired.
If you wanted to, if you see a car you like link it on here and we could give abit of advice on it.
like this you mean.....https://www.rtoc.org/boards/album.php...ictureid=13166

Thanks and as I've had a wide verity of cars over the years so i know what you mean with claims of 1000's of BHP with just a Induction Kit. from what research I've done so far the main thing which seems to go is turbo and head gasket, so I'm assuming first thing to do would be a bigger or twin core radiator? and maybe just maybe the odd hole descretly near the front to help disperse abit of heat
They only have cooling problems because owners don't look after them or if they have a prob some seem to want to bodge them together again.
A standard cooling system is well up to the job even on a tuned engined.
Gaskets go down to poor cooling system of more commonly poorly tuned carbs, if everything is spot on you shouldn't be having any problems.

I know where there is a LHD rear engined 5 in Malta it's been stood in same spot for 10 years as i see it evry 2 years and the dust is so thick on it i wront a date on it 4 years ago and it's still there it's white in colour. I did ask abot owner but nobody knows about the car or owner might have to take a trip over with a trailer or is that cheeky as fook?
Im from malta to dude and i now the 5 your talking if i was you i don't go near it if you don't like some one screaming at you i will shot you next time and if you looking in a 5 gtt in malta will be hard to find one and will be over priced all the good ones the 6 i now to tell you the true are in good hands and owners want sell them
The Malta mafia massif. Don't mess with them.
Mind you, I can't blame him/them. Putting up that you might just go and steal it is well out of line.
I would have said join the club and buy a good car based on the sound advice of the membership base here, but we don't want a pikey thief in the ranks.

Yea I'm going to join the club as I have enough info on them to warrent buying one now.
Should of worded it alot better didnt mean to say just turn up and take it was going to get alot more info on it see if it did have owners but it now does so no i won't be going to "steal" it and i apollogise as how it may of sounded as i'm far from a thief and a pikey
