Notice that the a/c hoses and dryer are missing...
I ordered a new condenser, o-ring & gasket kit, orifice tube, dryer, 134-a fittings, etc. Then during engine break-in, I discovered a steamy little problem in the passenger side floor... Ugh!
So, needless to say... I now have a new heater core on its way..

yeah mine is cracked and held together by black duct tape. It's working so far but I must get a new one.
Yeah, my heater core was doing the same thing but I ripped mine all the way out to reduce weight since I was racing her.

Thanks, Jake.
He's stoked about this car. Glad he likes it over a 1990 supra turbo I found...
I picked out 6-8 wheel styles (within a budget lol) for him to choose from. He picked the MB Old School in gunmetal, so we're gonna put 18 x 8's on it. It's been fun so far and I'm glad he appreciates REAL CARS.
