I got my 98 mr2 turbo waxolyd, it shouldnt cost too much (sub 50), but ive heard its something that you really ought to do.
ECU wise, myself I just user optimax alone, I guess you could whack some octane booster in too? It depends if you have the money for the extras like a new ECU
Tell me when you get it and your in notts mate, would love to see it

My thoughts are the same as Avi's, I'd check for spacers when you get it peccy.
