Wondering about the condition of the 87. If in good to excellent
shape, you will indeed be fortunate. Great cars.
The seats from the 87 Turbo are the same. As a matter of fact, 86 to
87 are identical. But of course, that is provided they both have the same
color and type of covering. Peugeot used both cloth and leather. Believe
the STX and the Turbo both came standard with the leather. Don't think the
85 seats will work. But that is only because I have no experience with the
85's.
The ride should be identical. The front suspension will be different
because of the different engine, but I notice no difference between Turbo
and V6 equipped cars. I know, I have both. They are GREAT touring cars as
well as awesome sport cars.
Don't think I am familiar with the "two pump" system. To which are you
referring? The steering?
