A few questions from a newbie

[dcrusupra]

well i drive an 87 non turbo. u can expect the head gasket to blow, or bhg, the radiator will go, the engine will last easily into the 200,000 mile range. the only body kits ive seen are insanely expensive. but check ebay. they might have something cheap. and for fixing it, its like any other car. customized parts are a little harder to find but everything else is pretty easy. as for the GReddy or HKS, a little of both would be great. u dont need to be religious with what company has more parts on ur car unless ur sponsored by them. the interior parts are a bitch to find. and the stock 7m-ge (non-turbo) or the 7m-gte (turbo) doesnt have a whole lot of room for upgrades so ur better off getting a newer engine. the popular ones are a 1jz-gte (turbo) or a 2jz-gtte (twin turbo). and the new problem on my car is the tie rods are bad. but thats a fairly cheap problem.
