Okay, I'm obviously new here, so I was hoping to get some advice through the simplest means possible, asking.
I found at MKII today, it was sitting in a junkyard with the hatch missing. I was scrounging around and traveling from yard to yard across the county looking for parts for my MX-3 V6 when I came across this gem. I'm infatuated with it, but know utterly nothing about anything to do with this car. It is silver, no paint fading, no big dents. The motor is there, I did some looking and found out it is a 5MGTE. Everything seems to be there, but what really wowed me at first was the fact that the Celica Supra badge on the hood isn't faded. Then, on the inside, the steering wheel said GT Grant which perked my attention even more.
I'm just looking for any resources and write ups applying to the 5MGTE motor specifically. Also, I feel so dumb for not checking, but I don't know if it is an Auto or Standard transmission, so any info on the trannys would be great.
There is a really great man I used to go to for information about my MX-3. Unfortunately, he gave up attending message boards, but this is a write-up he made detailing information about the MX-3 V6 motor http://plaza.ufl.edu/mugen23/K8.htm. So there's some info on me and what I'm looking for, I'd just like a little help here. I must be crazy though, I just spent half an hour pacing around my room and talking to myself about what I'd do to that motor.
