Hunty, looks like a really nice buy! Curious to the price PM me if you want, when insurance gets a little cheaper I'm definately interested in a Turbo SW20.
A few things you should know...
Buy good rubber, true for any car, but if you have a SW20 you'll get a love for windy roads and good tyres really help.
Take it easy in the wet, these babies like to kick out the back in the wet if you give them too much, just drive it "normally" and you wont have any problems.
In warm dry weather it's like driving on train tracks, you've really got to be going hard to get it sideways, but you've got a turbo on your side so it may be a little easier
The standard suspension is pretty good, but I reckon stiffer springs are definately a good move.
Short shifter kits can make changing gears really really easy in a SW20 because it's like having your arm on a arm rest and flicking your wrist occasionally to change gear.
Enjoy your beast put up more pics when you get it.
Got nothing to do with heat, but you did say you had some questions....
