How about a motor swap? Cheaper than an IS350
 Seriously though, it's a shame to hear that you are going to part the car out. This has been one of my favorite cars on 6gc for a while. If you do part, I might be up for a quote on your TRD quickshifter. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

does your car have a crank position sensor? i see this on the cars i work on a lot. when the sensor is cold, it works fine, but when it warms up the internal wiring starts to expand, then causes the ecu to think there is too much resistance in the sensor which makes it think that there is an open in the circuit. since the ecu needs the input signal from the crank position sensor to run, when it thinks there is no signal, then it will shut off. i'd look into that before selling your car.

yeah my mech friends are looking into that. presure2 told me its near the oil pump area, which means getting near the timing belt. then i'd have to get a new water pump, timing belt, oil pump or seal (maybe), the crank sensor, and all other crap while im there. plus friends time away from more important things. im just not willing to replace things anymore, kinda out of that phase (wanting a new updated car).
Thanks for your input QUOTE (BonzaiCelica @ Jan 17, 2010 - 12:10 PM) get the two door yaris instead. It looks way better too small. how does that saying go....
