Its a differential so yes it does require gear oil. What weight, quantity and where to find the fill hole I do not know.
I imagine the gear oil will have leaked out without the half-shafts installed, ...

Grounding Points - 6G Celicas Forums

The intake manifold ground runs to the ecu. It goes through the wiring harness, it does not attach to the firewall. On the 5sfe it bolts onto the manifold next to the VSV, Vacuum Switching Valve.

Summit racing sells shrouds I think.
If I were you I would order a plate of 1/16" aluminum from some place like metaldepot.com. You should be able to get a 2'×3' for maybe $30, dont quote me on that. ...

Why dont you just run a closed plenum feeding the ITBs.
The point of the ITB is to increase throttle response. When you open the throttle there is a delay while air fills the intake manifold before re...

Fourtunately thats the easier seal to replace, the axle doesnt have a clip inside the tranmission.
The dust cap isnt always on replacement axles, its the seal that failed.

If only one fan comes on, try this again with the a/c on and the wire unplugged.
If both fans dont run you are having a cooling fan issue.

The water pump cannot fail in this manner, it is an impeller driven by the timing belt.
Could be the headgasket. Unplug the sensor located on the bottom tank of the radiator, this should cause the rad...

Yes the plastic on the tank deteriorates with time but if the cap is defective it can cause pressure to build until the radiator explodes.

I dont think a jdm cylinder head will pass inspection. You need an egr valve, and possibly some other emmisions equipment which may not be present on a non US or non California spec head.
