Yea... Thanks... Just gotta use a crowbar and get the crumpped dust shields all the way off my brake discs and she is good to go... The craigslist mts have seen better days so they might need replacement soon but should be allright for a while... Good to be able to drive her again...

I couldnt help but wonder about the almost 30 year old wiring harness.... I know for honda civics j crxs it was big to do mil-spec harnesses and tucked engine bays with companoes like ry-wire and chase bays.... I wonder if there are toyota 22re guys doing wiring harness upgrades or swaps... Iduch prefer to wire in Toyota color coded correct wires vs standard black, white, or red insulated wires... I feel like where the battery was i could do some cleaning up of the rats nest....

Like this... I got a apray painted blue connector. I think one of the green ones is for a tach. I got two more going nowhere and some loose wiring. Name:  1376340091.jpg

It would help a good bit to just clean the wires themselves, and then loom it. Available at any parts stores. Made a world of difference in my engine bay. Under my dash is a different story....

Finally got down there with a crowbar and got the dust shields off the rotors, disconnected the negative cable, to reset the cels... Didnt loom the wires yet, but did some little readjustments underhood. . She just has a minor oil weepage from the front somewhere (i think oil pump, or front seal) and the tires have seen better days... But for 250 off craigslist they roll...
