Any thoughts or suggestions on the car itself? The only reason I picked this up was that it's super rare to find in a 5spd. Plus, it was a good deal too. But it's got it's quirks.
Either I am going to fix this up and drive/sell it later. Or pull the motor/ecu/harness/etc. and use it in my 91 MR2.
Do you guys think it's got a blown head gasket? How would you tell?
It does smell like "burning" of some sort. A hotlap around the block leaves it with some smoke coming from the engine bay.
Engine temp needle stays solid (they always do... then suddenly shoot up as from what I've read).
I've yet to have this thing driven around much or even on the highway. No plates...
What do you guys think? I bought it for pretty darn cheap... so even with all the quirks, it isn't so bad.
