EBC greenstuff maybe.
 
Take a pic & we'll see (transmission). Most likely is.

I have hex bolts on inner cv boots, so that means turbo axles.

Coilovers are ceika, just another budget brand. Build and fit looks good.

Went for a decent run this early morning, she feels great.
Suspension is still firm but no crashing on big bumps like previously.
My home alignment feels good to, I was conservative with toe so it has more weight when changing direction now. Will leave it like this for a bit, to try out.
Definitely wont be taking it to get a "professional" alignment.
Might even check the daily driver now :p

On another note, maybe the cold weather contributed or the lack of driving recently, gee it feels quick...
Sorry Richard I decided I don't need another 150kW!

turbos always want to keep boosting when the temp drops :)

Car looks good mate - just needs some nice rims then it'll look even better.
 
Definitely know what you mean about when the temperature drops and the car feels quick....Up here (Darwin) its always hot so when it comes around to the Dry season and it gets fairly cool (12 - 16 degrees) my car feels a lot quicker too!  Might be just in my head but the turbo sounds louder too?

Most likely the colder air has more oxygen, me thinks.

No secret, cold air is great for forced induction. Especially with MR2's & their high intake temps.

Hi Nissky, What was the problem with the aircon? I have just recently done the same conversion and now the air con doesnt work - I am hoping you have an answer for the same issue..

White trd's?

Reminds me of the old car...

 
Wheels are a while off anyway as current tyres are almost brand new, unless some cheap ones come up on here ;p
