"newer" c900's....I'm paranoid.

I'm on the market for an SPG, or at least one I can turn into an SPG. However, I'm a little scared to get into the 1988+ range as I'm not a fan of all the newer electronics on cars. I can live with airbags (no pun intended) but I despise ABS. And what's this "HVAC" thing I'm reading about? Ok, I'm still stuck in 1985, and I don't want to get into anything that the dash looks like an Xmax tree when something goes wrong under the hood. I do, however, want the water cooled turbo and stronger tranny. Can anyone give me a little timeline on when all the computer stuff became standard on the c900? I've seen a few 1993 coupes around my area, but I don't want to have to learn everything all over again.
I own a 1985 900T (4 door) with the old LH 2.2 system. Is the newer LH 2.4, or any others, any less reliable than the older ones?
Can anyone help me and my paranoia??
Thanks a lot.
Jordan.
