what are the 5 most common problems in an mr2 1991 ttop non turbo? if anyone knows please answer because i am about to get one

well the things ive had problems with so far are these and ive had the car for a year

1. alternator - ive heard very common
2. t-tops will leak a bit - easy and cheap fix though
3. clutch - they just arnt that great and go if you beat on the car to much
4. tranny (syncro's) - right now my second gear syncro will grind if i try to shift it too hard.
5. coolant/overheat issues - it just seems like these cars always run hot anyway, but the system is so long going from the front radiator to the rear engine that alot of people either dont bleed it correctly or have issues with lines leaking. And some of them can be kinda a pain to fix.

These are just what i can think of at the moment. But i love my car and definetly dont regret buying it. Such a fun car to drive and gets plenty of looks from people since i rarely ever see another one driving on the road.

EDIT: i thought it said turbo and not NT so some of the things may not apply since i have a turbo. But im pretty sure the alternator and t-top issues are universal to both. Not sure about the tranny and clutch issues however
