So I...guess...I'll PayPal you $220, and I'll receive fronts+ steering bushings in about a week? PS- that's a pretty good guess. I came up with $39.75 for a 1kg parcel+ security fee. Assuming a 1 week timeframe from payment to mail-out, I'm in. If this is a correct assumption, let me know, and...

Drop a tps? Just test the resistances per the tsrm, and adjust its position if necessary. Use the search function for "knock sensor rewire" there's a number of threads about it. With a code 52, you're losing half your wot power.

Do the simple things; Check for tight connections at all four points- TPS, AFM and both KS plugs. If no changes, Test and adjust TPS per TSRM. Test AFM per TSRM. Have you done a knock sensor rewire yet on this car?

Stick with a fan clutch. More reliable. I used to have Flex-a-lite 210's and the thermo control fried on it, allowing it to overheat. Then a temp sensor fried on it, allowing it to overheat. The a connector came loose, allowing it to overheat. Also, electric fans will run on for like 5+ minutes...

You still haven't answered 3P's question- Have you checked for codes?

Teeny update from Canukistan: I'm stuck in a hotel room in Vancouver right now, but I did order a few parts: Aaron at Driftmotion will be sending me a new set of brake lines to fit the Cobra brake upgrade- the final parts that I needed to complete the conversion. I also just ordered new front...

By 'timing is dead on', do you mean the ignition timing? Can you verify that the cam timing is definitely correct? ps- Love the new pic, JJ. It should be entitled- "Meanwhile, Down under..." OR- "Meanwhile, during I.J.'s commute"...

Today, I ordered new upper control arms for the front suspension restoration I'm doing.

It's an EBay unit from a long time ago. It's also being replaced for a slightly larger one. It fills the entire space perfectly between the two frame rails, but it was with a kaminari bumper, set back a bit. So I can't say as to wether it'd fill the factory grill.

Ok, zip 30046. I'm guessing this'll be roughly a 1.5 lb package?

I would love to have an NA for daily driving. If I didn't have the MR2, I'd have probably gotten one. Ps- MA71 is the designation for the turbo chassis. Sounds like you're looking at an MA70.

Ugh

Is there an additional shipping cost to GA, USA- 30046, or is that accounted for in your pricing?

and?

"Infamous" 7MGTE?

Ronnie K- Please pm me your paypal address(or put it here for all), and I will send you funds for front+steering rack. Most importantly, I need to know a timeframe for these parts. Thanks!

True, but they don't sell the front Cobra units. In fact, Ford doesn't even sell them anymore- you have to go to THEIR source- PBR in Australia. I suggest that anyone doing this upgrade be sure to buy the calipers WITh the brackets, and not bare, like me. Luckily Airhead was able to hook me up...

I hear ya. I wouldn't be able to do this at all, if it wasn't for finally having the MR2 as a daily driver.

Today I pulled off all my front panels and the front suspension for replacement. Also got my new front rotors in.

^ That's a pretty good deal. In my case, I bought two knock sensors still connected to the knock sensor harness, so I got both plugs included. Seems that some Toyota vehichles had KS wiring subharnesses, which unplug from the engine harness. Kind of a good idea.
