This is my seventh motor vehicle. I am 21. My first car was a 1971 Jaguar XJ6, and boy wasn't she beautiful.


Then I owned a road legal go kart.

Then a Honda Hornet 250.

Then an R33 Skyline (350hp atw)


Then a Honda CB400 VTEC (no pic on me)
Then a Mitsubishi Mirage.

And now...

Model: MR2
Series: SW20 (MKII)
Year: 1992
Bought: April 2014
Mods:
High flow turbo
ARC Intercooler
ARC Air Intake
BOV delete

Boost gauge
Momo steering wheel
BC Coilovers
Camber bolts
RCAs
Was running steelies but just booked in two track days and so put my track wheels & tyres back on & got an alignment.
Greddy OLED boost controller & HKS Fuel Cut Defender are being installed on Thursday, boost is increasing to 16 PSI.

    Nice car & love the colour. Bring it to an MR2 meet (2nd Wednesday of each month & Rhodes). I don't recall having seen an MR2 in AU with steelies before.

    I plan on bringing it mate :) This is the first MR2 in Australia to run 0 offset and steelies. I'm pretty sure, but happy to be proven wrong.

    Cool. Btw, having the front license plate there would block a fair amount of airflow to the radiator.

    UPDATE
    Front camber bolts have now been installed and is running the same negative camber as the rears. It had a full leakage test and fixed all oil weeps and leaks (one out of the cam cover and one out of the distributor o-ring). I'll take a photo of the front camber soon to give you a visual idea. The car was also lowered even more about a month ago just to get it sitting better.
     
    WHAT'S NEXT
    24 FUN is getting a full service on Monday
    Hubcentric wheel spacers (5mm for the fronts, 15mm for the rears)
    Ordered undercar LEDs, just something fun to install and something which I can turn on and off when parked for fun (will feel like NFS Underground 2)
    Ordered a red and a blue shift light, going to set the blue light for 6000 rpm and the red light for 7000 rpm which will look mad! Going to install them behind the cluster so the whole dash will light up at 6000 and 7000 rpm!
    Eventually will install a Greddy Profec OLED which is sitting in my room
    Fuel cut defender
    Maybe upgrade cooling system?
    Will try to put up pics soon

    This is all going in the MR2 (yes, even the two 1200W RMS subs) within the next few days. Being such a small cabin, it is going to be so loud.

    Are you able to fit fatter rear tyres to improve the tyre to guard gap?
