Re: starting issue
How would it have changed after i put on the head? I thought it might have evil do with compression? But i put a new cylinder head gasket and stories to spec. It used to fire right up after it turned over once or twice?

starting issue
Not sure whatsup but when i turn the key to start cranking over the motor it feels like it doesn't have enough power and i need to hold the key until the cranking sort of picks up speed, then it will start fine. Any idea what causes this? It started after i put back the head and IN&EX manifolds

Re: rear axle swaps
Found a guy that has an 85 celica for part out. He says he still has the rear end. Would this be an upgrade to the current sr5 rearend? Anyone know if its bolt on?
