    Other cars are 1997 Toyota 4Runner (for sale), 1992 Toyota MR2 Turbo (also for sale), and 1986 Porsche 944 spec car.
    I'll trade the MR2 and 4Runner for a low miles FJ80 if anyone is down.
    Looks to be a decent forum.
    welcome man

      welcome man, for a second I was like oh shit, we have the same(similar) line-up of cars!

      My winter beater is also a 4runner, slightly older than yours(10 years) :D

      Any pics of the E30?

        Thanks guys. I am pretty excited about it.
        I just spend around $1200 on parts to go on it, so it won't really be driven until I get in there and do the timing belt, water pump, suspension, fluids for the whole car, etc.... Also on the lookout for some winter tires, and some summer wheels and tires.
        Here is a pic.

            I'm in Salt Lake. I'm watching KSL, for the screamin deal to appear, but it is not urgent yet, as all the suspension and engine refresh parts are in the mail still, and I don't expect to start daily driving it for a while yet.
            What do you have? Where are you located?

                Not sure yet, I may autocross the car a bit, so I gotta find out what class, what size, etc... so not sure. Gotta get it running right first. I'll be sure to check here when it gets there.

                  I think I seen a pretty new set of winter tires in my buddy's shed at our shop. I will see what they are and what he wants for them. I am in Utah county.

                    I got my car running better today. I switched out the cold start valve, changed the fuel filter and ran some Seafoam thru it. I also discovered an exhaust leak :(

                      Any problems with the MAF? I know mine was loopy and kept throwing the idle off.

                        My idle is only a little weird when the car is cold but only fluctuates like 50 RPM's or so.

                                I still don't know why when I told you how to take your temperature orally you still insisted on taking it in the rectum. How did you do that alone?
