Yep, no Doonk on gear change. Had a little closer look at the exhaust. I don't think its standard, the piping looks too big. Oh well never mind
The air intake is standard tho, and I don't know how far I want to try and push the insurance lady on what is "minor modifications".

Re: I got one

So now I've got the car, what do you guys recommend I do strait away in regards to some maintenance that might not have been done by the previous owner?

Re: I got one

Dude! When Did The Headgasket Become A "maintenance" Item? I Wouldn't Change It Unless I Knew Something Was Wrong With It!

Re: I got one

Man, the local Toyota service department is going to love me if I get the head gasket changed.
Any recommendations on brand/specification of transmission fluid, oil, coolant additives?

Re: I got one

Ok, went and ordered distributor cap, rotor and dust o-ring for the distributor, and so did TRD2000.
Found out that between his car and mine, (90 vs 92) they have a different distributor cap. And the o-ring they have none left in the county, so they have to come in from Japan. It will be a few weeks before this job finally gets done.

Re: I got one

The head gaskets are known to go on the 3SGTE, but to my knowlege you dont have to pull the motor to change it.
