Samurai are notorious for having bad grounds. I would suggest running new grounding wire. Battery to body, Engine to body, Engine to frame, Body to frame. This can all be done up in the engine compartment and will help with probably all of your problems.

I did that to my 88 sammie, I used a grouding strap setup off of a 1984 toyota pickup that comes stock with multiple grounding points.
oh ya, I would move your stereo hot lead direct to the battery with a fuse and then also clean your ignition switch they will get dirty and do all kinds of weird things.

When I had a stereo in my Zuki, I ran power and ground wires for the system directly to the battery. I did not have any interference of any kind with it being wired this way. I also made sure the power wires were kept away from the signal cables.

You're ground wire doesn't need to go to the battery, it should be as short as possible connectiong to the closest metal.

When messing with some radios you have to run a coax type wire for an antenna system to the battery and run the shield to ground and the center conductor to positive keeping it as short as possible to eliminate computer noise and alternator wine etc. and for a reciever you have to ground the back end of the tail pipe because it will resonate at certain feqs. I know huh!
