I JUST BOUGHT MY CAR AND THE GUY I BOUGHT IT FROM HAD SAID THAT HE PAID SOMEONE TO INSTALL AND DO ALL OF THE MOTOR WORK FOR HIM...NOT MECHANICALLY INCLINED AT ALL!!! ANYWAY THE MOTOR IS SUPPOSALLY BOUGHT FROM SOMEONE ON EBAY AND WAS FROM JAPAN WITH ONLY 30,000 MILES ON IT...IT IS NOT TURBO...SO ARE THERE NUMBERS ON IT OR ANY TYPE OF JAPENSE STAMPS THAT I CAN LOOK FOR TO DISCOVER WHAT MOTOR IS IN MY CAR?? THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR COMMENTS... I OWN LEXUSES BUT THIS IS MY FIRST TOYOTA...4 CYLINDER!!!

Thanks for the advice...i will peel off that stupid sticker, and the motor will be powerwashed and detailed...the car sat for over two years out side...I guess that the guy ran out of money and his friend who was working on the car died...it became a mouse n snake nest out in the corner of this guys property!!!! I bought the car as you see it in my profile for $1350.00...i have taken the interior out of the car to give it a good cleaning and shampoo the carpet and seats...the trunk is all apart and was bleached and cleaned today The car smells horrible!!!...i had to replace the fuel filter and the fuel pump to get the thing running to drive it home...also the brakes were shot from sitting so new Brembo Rotors, pads, shoes and brake hardware was installed just a couple of hours ago... tomorrow the windows will be tinted, the tail lights will be tinted and a detailed bath to remove the build up of dirt n grim in all the door and trunk jams and the edges...got to clean it well before i buff it out!!! Oh...and the heater box has to be dropped and removedand cleaned!!!... hopefully the last mouse nest that is in the car!! I can't even turn on my heater or defoster!!!! I hear...clunk, clunk, clunk...Ewww!!!
