Doward: I see your doing up your harness. My car is done and im having an issue. She won't start. She cranks and theres no power to the coil's.(i.e. no 12v to the coil packs) I'm thinking it's the harness. It is twenty years 20 and most likely spliced some where between the igniter and the harness. Any advice?

So now I'm trying to decide... should I repaint my mouldings? They are in not-so-bad shape, but I'm trying to find things to do to my car, while I wait on my pistons to arrive :D

I've still got the R154 to finish rebuilding, as well!

I've already got MC's steel bearing retainer :)

Although, I just found out that EVIDENTLY the transmission in my truck ('05 Colorado 5 spd sport 5 cyl) is based on the Rseries from the Supra.

All I'm going to say, is that if the R154 completely rebuilt, has that same ridiculously notchy feel to it, I'll be going T56 a lot quicker than I wanted to!

(I'm way too used to silky smooth feeling of my T5 - too bad it doesn't handle power worth shit ;))
