Hey Don! Hope yer doin well. cheers.

I just wanted to say Merry Christmas to all of those 'maniacs that celebrate it! Cheers and thanks for another good year of tips and general great free help.

Order from Randy @ BIC, his customer service is tits. Suprasport also treated me well for my turbo... gl.

Very nice car, Dave. Congrats on the new aquisition! I'll be dying for a ride in that next year, keep me in mind, bro.

I found a Koyo R0171 on Fleabay for $300 U.S. new. I haven't picked it up yet, but after research, it looks to be a good choice. I thought the price was right, too. gl with your pick.

I'd recheck the mani gasket and check the torque on all the manifold bolts. If any of them are stripped, then it could be causing a leak under pressure. I'd also ensure the integrity of the bov. gl.

I swapped my '88 manual driveline into my auto '90. Kept all the sensors, harness, ecu, and outer engine components off the '90 and just swapped it all onto the '88 motor. The clutch pedal wire must be jumpered to stay active so it'll start without the clutch being depressed, so be careful of...

These cars are cool money pits. Keep a huge bag of cash for "just in case" , if you buy. Pics would be awesome! gl.

7/16 thread roll sounds like it's gonna hurt going into my soft head, Ian. Ohhh, you meant the car, my bad.:biglaugh:

The coilpack order is: 1-6, 3-4, 2-5 the firing order is: 1-5, 3-6, 2-4

What kind of hp are you trying to make? BC heads are big $$...fill in the rest of the parts list, bro! Oversize valves are great, but if you aren't shooting for mega hp, money might be more effectively spent elsewhere, imho, gl.

If the body and interior are mint then the driveline can be fixed/changed. (If you have a garage and tools and alot of patience/money). Supras are cool. Money pits, but good drivers when they are all fixed. Costs a shitload, though. Post some good pics! gl.

I use the factory cup holder in my '90, no problems. I just use the back one so I don't hit it accidentally. My console lid stays up np as well, unless you have to panic stop...

The wiring harness can be used with a manual trans. There are some extra plugs that won't be utilized for the auto tranny. The ecu I'd be wary of, since the identifiers have been "scratched off"...you can however, use an auto ecu for a manual, I am. I'd rebuild a jdm engine just like a used...

That is one sweet score for a kilobuck. I'd change out the fuel filter and perhaps drain the tank and clean it, but that's maybe just me...at least run some redline SI-1 or techron thru it. nice car!!!
