What year car?

That sounds like it could be a large intake leak. Like between the airflow meter and throttle body. Make sure it is hooked up, and no cracks.

In my experience, Porsche owners are one of the first willing to race. I think they only go if they think they can win. People buy a car like that because they can afford it. Would you take a Chevy Cavalier or a 996?

Acting crazy in what way?

If you are sure you are getting fuel, but not spark, that does narrow it down. I don't have your repair manual. But with most Toyotas of that age, fuel will not be delivered unless the ignitor signals to the ECU that the ignition trigger occured. I would look closer at that distributor...

The ECU rarely goes bad. You need a pick up signal or the EFI will not operate. Are the injectors pusling when you crank the engine?

If you have intermittent starting I am thinking the starter contacts inside are getting worn.

Well, it depends on what fits I think. They are platform cars, but the the platform may not be identical. I am sure somebody here knows. I would change the diff rather than the whole assembly myself, just so I know what I am getting

Use the engine to drive a pump that drives a blower? Why not just use the engine to drive the blower itself. Sounds highly ineffecient to me.

He drove really well too. Consistent 14.7, give or take a tenth at the most.

Eric's V8 Supra

I say you are absolutely right about that.

An automotive stethescope works best.

Has anybody considered fabricating a hydroboost unit for braking? It doesn't take up very much space at all.

The only place I don't use this SN is the Corral, and that came first, by far.
