I've had it. I am so insanely sick of working on my car. All it ever does is enrage me when more and more stuff goes wrong with it. So it's for sale.
You can look in my profile for information. I have a long thing I wrote at work that I'll post tomorrow. What I don't have in there is what's wrong with it, so here goes: VVT doesn't work (Hopefully throttle cable related) Throwout bearing needs to be replaced (I think this is why my car has trouble going into 1st/reverse sometimes as well, but if not, then the slave cylinder or master cylinder needs to be replaced) Valves make noise at idle (I think they just need adjusting) Two touched-up paint chips on front driver's side fender Two small paint chips on rear bumper (from tonight...I hit a garage door and it shook the garage and a drill fell on the rear bumper) Heavily damaged front bumper Tiny hole in passenger side low-beam headlight Power steering pump needs to be replaced (I have a good working stock one...it just needs to go on, along with a new belt) So yeah, that's what's wrong with it. I just have to get rid of it immediately, because I can't even stand it at all any more...every single time I work on it I just get completely enraged because stuff doesn't work and I'm stressed and impatient and I hate my car. So make me an offer...I just need to get rid of it. I'll include the extra dead 20V engine if you want it too. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

After talking with some people and thinking about this some more, I don't think that I'll be able to get even close to what I was hoping to get for this car in the condition it's in now.
So I'm going to fix everything up before I sell it, and then hopefully I can buy a GT with a bad engine and do a 3S-GTE swap on that.
