I think the labo lid is a terrible idea. the MR2 engine bay has a habbit of getting dirty real fast... that and its E/W configuration lacks the symmetry of that sweet N/S V engine.

I do agree but i like looking at the engine.
But i dont think ill do it. Completing the LED's DAY DRIVING LIGHTS first

MANDALAY

Do you think the custom glass company you referred to might be a good option for replacing a broken a targa glass?

I suppose you would need to borrow an unbroken one for a pattern, and it would have to be exactly the right shape so it wouldn't leak.

Nah they could alrady have it on their inventory but i wouldn't even bother get one from thewrekers or ebay , they are cheap

You might be aqware that here in Melbourne we had a some what heat wave come through.
Did a lot of driving in the hot weather around 35 degrees celcius.
Well the car was great :)
You know on those really hot days with a N/A it feels slow, but this engine kept on singing.
Water temp as per normal 91
Rotrex oil stayed 53 - 61 great as max allowed is 80 degrees
Oil temp as per normal 91
And my air intake was only 46 degrees with a lotttt of spirited driving :)
So the intercooler set up is keeping it below 13 drgrees aobve ambient

Also got to use my Ferrari horns , did i scare the poo poo out of the guy that nearly cut me off :)

Just in case you missed it i put the plugs for the Motec in the ashtray.
One is the head phone plug for the Motec Knock control modul where as the other plug is is the can for the lap top.
Tuning is easily done on the move.

So here is the part anodized. Just waiting for the round windows and its done.
This way when the lights are one the ashtray light will light up the panel





Most of you know that im into sound systems but in my BMW not for the MR2.
I want to hear my engine :)But i had to change it for a reason. It also had to be OEM
Well had a bit of luck.
I told a mate of mine that works at Toyota to keep eye on a CD/ NAV unit from Toyota,
A specific one that has a pull out unit.
He got back to me that he had one that a customer did not come and collect and i could have it for a steal as it was dead stock because a new one was released 5 months ago.
Well $300 Aussie :) not bad considering they were $1200 !
The reason i wanted it , is so i can put my MoTec MDD display in it.
ill fabricate a shell for the MDD to the same shape and size as the NAV and also see if i can still have the NAV opperational
The MDD has the same colour illumination as the green in the head unit:)





What ill do is hard wire and make a custom bracket and relocate the Sat Nav to the inside part of the lid of the cubby bin in the centre consol

It just keeps getting better.. how can this be?

Well searching for the OEM look i am not 100% convinced on my wheels even though i spent a bucket load on them.
They are up for sale soon.
I finally found a new set of discontinued rims 17 inch and staggered that look like the REV 5 OEM's :)
I bought them last night. Now all ill do is give them a silver finish

And to round up my Christmass presents i also bought this one



AND ITWASNT FROM SUPER RARE KIETH , aka SRK

It cost me $500 and its the correct version B for the REV 5 MR2 :)

Got to love Japanese Yahoo !!!!!!!!!!!

Down with evil tau!
