Rear end was picked up today, disc brakes and LSD, oh yeah (no pics, 'cause it's rusty as hell).
I did find a Toyota only salvage lot in eastern PA that's chock full of Toyota goodies. I'm going back next weekend to pick up a manual steering rack, so that'll be one less accessory belt I have to worry about losing. The trans between the SR5 and GTS is actually the same, you just need to swap the bellhousing because of the location of the starter is on opposite ends. A lot of folks have told me that the stock brakes are pretty good and that all I really have to do is get some good racing pads. If I were making this into a show car, Brenbos would definitely be on the list.
I actually got lucky, only two trim pieces are missing, the dash is uncracked, and I have a friend who's being forced to get rid of all of his extra parts because his boss frowns upon his pack rat ways. I don't know where you live lt1s10, but the guy I picked up the rear end from is parting out a GT-S coupe and he lives in Jersey. If you have somebody looking for stuff, let me know and I'll get you in touch with him.
Head's getting sent out to be reworked, will post pics when it comes back.
