Interesting that it has a blank switch for the sunroof, rather than a block-off.

The engine rebuild was a result of a thrust bearing failure (TBF). The Porsche 928 TBF problem is only an issue on an engine that has not had a simple crankshaft end play check during it's routine maintenance. It is most often the result of a previous non-informed owner; which happened in my case. Below is a link of how to care for this issue so it doesn’t happen to you.

Sorry to say but TBF is a very common issue on Japanese imports with an automatic. Although most of them have very low mileage and make them desirable, they have sat for hours in traffic and accumulated a disproportionate amount of hours. A significant number of otherwise pristine imports to Europe have suffered from this failure, turning it into a nightmare. Especially if the block of a GTS engine is shot.

If you don't mind the additional fender guards of Japanese market cars, then this might be for you. If this is a legitimate GTS engine rebuilt. TBF normally means (but not always) that the bearing has spun, turning the block into a coffee table base.

Does anyone have insight in how many JDM GTS there were?

Rob Edwards

235 in left hand drive, 15 in RHD spec. So 250 overall. Only 12 were 5-speeds, 9 LHD and 3 RHD.

My GTS does NOT have rear air from factory but does have both seats heated; factory assumption guess that its always cold in Canada.

There are other small differences, KPH speedo, daytime runnong lights etc.

It does have a sun roof, not used much if at all.
