I would've thought you would at least want an AWD piece of shit to throw a ton of money at. :D

Zing...

For the most part this will be an epic fail, but I would like to keep this car on the road if possible. More to come after this week.

PS, I am looking at a block with a broken off front ear, and cracked rear motor mount holes. There is hope yet, more to come over this week.

GreaseMonkey Strikes again.
But dont worry, as per his ad on here " The car is in damn good shape for being close to 20 years old" http://mitsustyle.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28635
"Someone must want a nice and easy to repair winter project.." also from that thread.

Sorry john, i would have warned you had i saw that you were interested buying from him.

I am up to date on Greasemonkey, his add was a little over the top, but most of this stuff he did not do.

It just turns out the person who did the motor work did the biggest hack job possible. I have another 6 bolt motor I am looking in to, or I have parts to put a motor together.

The engine was rebuilt at some point, but nothing was done right, nothing was torqued properly, the bearings, rings, cylinders, and crank shaft are toast after xxxx miles. And its all stock 6 bolt parts, no 2g pistons etc, no washers under the stock head bolts, the timing belt was no were near right, but some how it ran, the motor had hardly any compression, the cylinder "cross" hatch is horizontal, no were near the 45deg its supposed to be. There were missing bolts in the oil pan and rear main seal housing.

The list goes on, but if I can get it up and running soon, then sell the Toyata I drive now I would back were I started money wise anyways.
