Should know I am having my doubts on a full rebuild on that engine, if that is your *toolbox*. jk.
 
probably knows someone with the tools needed.
 
knows the truth; it seems all you need to take these cars apart is a 10,12,14,17, and sometimes a 19mm. LOL
 
knows screwdrivers and hammers also come in handy
 
should know it's probably the knock-off Greddy BOV PR also includes in their fmic kit. just get it and throw it away, the pipe will be flanged for a 1g BOV anyway.
 
should know it's not a problem :)
 
Should know I have another question for you guys

I don't know what it's called. In the shop manual it looks like it's a part of the strut itself. Anyway, you can't really see in the pictures, but its starting to rust through the clamp piece that the two big bolts are holding on. Is this cause for major concern?

should highlight exactly what he's talking about but from what I understand, your saying that the strut itself is rusting away at the mounting bracket?
 
Is right, the mounting bracket is what I meant to say

Both struts are rusting on the L and R. Rust is starting to poke through on both sides of the bracket too. The car came from Ohio like that

should know that unless you could weld some extra steel in there for strength, your gonna need new struts.
 
should tell Alan11 that he should just get the kit without a BOV and buy a 1g BOV.
 
Should know i just talked my friend into a 1g bov for his 2g. He was going to buy an expensive one I was like WTF dude no. Just get a 1g bov. One resident DSM parts guy is still trying to get rid of all his shit for 35gs it will take everything he has he has the 35g in cars with motors to go in them alone and youd still have a spare motor left over. Also an 88 celica alltrac comes with it with a motor and trans
