Hello everyone i just bought about a week ago my first toyota
a 94 st coupe with a 4age swap This car has bin for sale in the chicago area, my friend bought it from some guy that could not get a shop to work on it because of the 4age perhaps and how rigged up it is. I bought it from him because my miata is turning into a track car and i could use a cheap reliable daily, i really wanted a mr2 but for the price i thought i can wait another year or so to buy one the hooptie  ghey miata and hooptie  some junk in the trunk  itbs nom nom nom  NAWWWSSS BUTTON! (jk previous owner wanted a push start so he cut starter wires and made one -.-)  wireless 02 sensor -.-  least favorite thing about the car  andd what will be the death of me -.-   screw aftermarket alarms! and people that install them and have no idea what to do |

cut the extra wires, they are to long, and just tuck them in with some duck tape. it will be fine.
I saw this car for sale, i wondered who would be brave enough to buy it. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL

At least the car made it to someone who joined the site and will try to fix it. Good luck!

I'll get that shipping quote for the spoiler for you on Monday or Tuesday. The car seems like a great project. Will you be doing any exterior work as well?

lets see did more work on the hooptie
 more **** out  much better looking put more of the dash parts together  and now the fun part!!  my friend that is good with electrical crap came by today and we were trying to un- rig the push button start wires and found out that the reason it was installed was to bypass a short somewear. so now i am going to pull the harness and get a new one same thing with a body harness and fix this mess and have a daily. I am hoping to have it done by the july cellica meet at starved rock, fingers crossed! |
