5sfe ST204 questions, Engine help Options

[jbcustom]

I just bought a 6g celica last night, a used ST204 w/ a 5spd. I am very happy with the exception of a few things. The steering of the car is extremely tight only going to one side, as I found out this car is a salvage and sustained damage to the front passenger fender. Is this problem correctable with just alignment and balancing, or could it be a more serious matter such as an axle problem or power steering problem? Another question I have concerns my engine, when decelerating the throttle is extremely jerky and makes a harsh rattling noise which can also be described as a rubbing noise.

Last but not least, how can I get the cruise control functions to work incase I do get lazy on long straight aways? In my old beemer its a wire, but I would think it would probably be an electrical function in this Toyota.

Let me know, and thanks for your help

I am getting the car looked at tomorrow by a reliable mechanic, suspension right now doesnt worry me, as that I am on the road to upgrade , however, what worries me is the status of the radiator, seals, clutch, and the tranny. I'll post some pics of my car so you guys can see how great the interior looks vs. the underhood. I got suckered into buying the car and got ripped off for a salvage in the end, its my first bought car no biggee i guess. I have many mods in mind to improve and hopefully surpass the handling and performance of the original car in mind.
