Chris, 1987 GTA (R9) 2.0
Might well be different (it's designed to run on 89R+M / 91RON petrol and has a different head design to its European counterparts), but being pre-OBDII nowhere here has plugins for it for annual testing.
The smog laws did mean it's only certified 49-state, can't get a tag for California (That's why the 1.4 was multi-point injection) but here, the age of it the testers pass it if it can actually get to the test station...
Mine appears to read from the following: engine coolant temp, intake manifold temp, knock sensor, oxygen sensor, throttle position, manifold absolute pressure, crank position.
Genuine AMC test sets are thin on the ground and expensive now on ebay so depending on cost, you might have a winner here, the GTA has a small cult following, similar to the 5 and 19 there.
