go to http://quasimotors.gar.net the 9k is a COMPLETELY different animal. The 91NA is not as much of a maintenance nightmare, but definitely more so than a C900. The >89 models are a bit more simple, but you'll probably have to do a heater core in one regardless! Heater core? Oh yes, this is the part that they build the rest of the car around. THey leak causing coolant smell in the cabin. BIG JOB. Where are you located? I have a '92 C900T 5 sd for sale. Quasi's site covers the 'what to look for'. I just got a '95 9kCS and am very impressed with the car, I just wish it had been 'sorted' at least a little bit before I got it.
