Nice - so easily done. We can all forgive you for the Futuras now.

I actually emailed VR Wheels yesterday about getting them fixed... so that's happening, finally.

I ransacked the junk yard again for parts that I may or may not need. I'm not terribly sure. I figured I'd rather have more junk than not enough junk lol

You're going need more rubber than a 205 this time, i'll hold my forgiveness until i see some real tires on there.

What r u doing these aren't Tacoma parts.

Yeah... I'm not too sure what to do about that. I was thinking 225/45 star specs on the Futura's but idk if that will be enough. I might consider stepping up to 17's or 245/40 RS4's on some fat 15's hehehe

I know... it's bad. I have too many projects. And, Ryzen isn't gonna help if it's good. Currently I'm thinking armor for the taco with refund monies, for now.

Quick update on the E30. I just bought a bunch of truck parts so the swap has been pushed down the list of priorities a bit. I want to get suspension, tires, and the remaining armor for the truck before I really continue more with the E30.

As such, since the M20 isn't really working properly, I decided to fix it up so it's driveable because I really miss driving it. Currently, if it is dead cold, it will fire right up and run ok. It seems to misfire under light load and occasionally under WOT. Then, once it gets warmed up and I turn it off, leave it off for like 15-30 minutes, and try to start it up again, it will fire straight away and then die. Eventually it will fire and stay alive but just barely. It's really confusing.

I've tested the AFM and TPS and they seem fine. The temp sensor is <3 years old. I did a smoke test and that didn't reveal anything major (just a decent sized leak from the bitch tube but I don't think that would be causing these issues). We tested the fuel pressure and it was showing really low so I think something may have been wrong with the test set up so I'd like to redo that. The injectors are cleaned/flow tested M50 ones that are only a few years old. However I did order a new Walbro 255 because I do need it for the swap anyways. That should be here sometime this week, I hope. Other than that, I got new spark plugs, fuel filter and engine bay fuel hose (even though I redid that like 2 years ago... stupid cheap AutoZone fuel line). If the fuel pump doesn't fix this I'm going to be seriously puzzled...

Regarding OBD1 vs OBD2, there is no reason to go OBD1 anymore. Just get the ews deleted, plus any other stuff you don't need (secondary O2s, evap, running loss valve, SAP) and it's literally plug and play and you retain all the OBD2 fault code reporting, you can use an OBD2 bluetooth adapter - great stuff

Looking forward to swap progress!
