if you want to see the gears, there are clear timing covers on ebay. plus they are two piece so you dont have to take the thermostat housing off to change timing (if you have adjustable gears) or do a timing belt.

i have the air filter its broke

and i have the strut bar but i have a question about the vacuum line i have the schematics or whatever you wanna call them but it doesnt compare to the engine the bvsv only has on port

Not only are u missing the air filter but u are missing the mass air flow sensor as well. Hopefully u actually have it as well, its just not in the picture. I can say one thing though....these cars are fun to work on in my opinion. Me and a friend changed the head gasket on mine and it was a great learning experience. I barely knew anything before that and now i would be able to take the head off myself

i doubt it but does this have anything to do with the mass air flow sensor

looks like a A/F ratio and oil pressure gauge and the safc. not directly connected to the KVAFM.

The car has been bastardized like children like to do. They think they are so much more clever than the professional engineers at Toyota. Like the one piece drive shaft, kids you are going to kill yourself.

The key is to getting the systems to work right tougher. Stock is good because the Engineering has been done. Am sure there are after market products that work well. You just need to do your homework. About the "children" remark, I swear some people never grow up! My brother "eligible for social security" is in a lot of ways not as mature as my 9 year old nephew.
