Sorry to make such a long intro thread:( Postive and negative feedback welcome!!!

i have seen this car in person...and let me be the first to say it is absolute sex

nice mr2!

~snap

his wheels are worth more then most of our cars


hahahahahah

i'm going to agree with thatcelicaguy even though i have not seen the car in person and say that mr2 is pure sex

Wow. thats all that I can say... hella nice work

Damnit. I wanted to be the first person to say that car = sex.

Thanks for all the kind words guys!:) Its a blast to drive I should have dyno sheets soon. I am expecting to put down 320whp+ on 15psi:)

Damn. NICE MR2!!! They are our actual brothers. Same 3s genes and inherents. We just look different. That is a sweet ass MR2 though.

>


CEpt for the whole engine in the rear and rwd and all


Thats a sweet ride though!

I tell you guys what replace your cams ASAP!!! I still can't get over the difference the hks ones have made!! I am thinking that tree branches would have worked better than stock 3S cams lol. Also I went the route of trying to mod the CT26 that was a HUGE and costly mistake!! Do not let anyone convince you other wise the CT26 is JUNK.

looks like the mr2 i was gonna buy til the guy bought it out from under me...so i bought his celi. and thats the story of my car in a nutshell.


cept ur mr2 is a crap-ton cleaner

Never really been a fan of shaving the side moldings, but still a very nice ride!

if i had 4 hands id give it

I'd hit it several times... absolute sex...

love the car. welcome to the site.

how much power is it making at the wheels?

hows the idle with those cams on a stock ecu?

do you have any piggy back to tune with, or are you just using the factory ecu with upgraded injectors and nothing else?

Gorgeous. Congrats man.

I want to make love to your car, whats her number?

Although, I'd go with some gunmetal rims with a polished lip, but hey, she still looks beautiful with the gold.

bill from autolab did all the work to the car. i dont know if you've heard of him or not but hes on the list of guys that do good 3s swaps on one of the stickies. he is def. one of the gods of the 3s.

those cams in the car make it sound freaking mean

i think that they have an estimate for 320 at the wheel at 15psi. he still hasnt had a chance to take it to the dyno yet so, we'll have to see.

very sexy did u take the pics? they are awesome

I have seen you on MR2oc.com before. Awsome mr2 you have. Mine is getting a total overhaul right now. Going from full veilside to full border.

Hey, i live in kentucky too. I'd love to see this thing in person some time.

It idles actually pretty good it really gives it that deep cammy sound. People look over at my car then look away and then look over like WTF? Mark is correct Autolab in louisville Ky did ALL the motor work on it. On pump gas with 13-15psi it will easily put down 320whp. I am using a SAFC to tune it works pretty good I would like to move into autotronic soon when I get some money. Its a absolute dream to drive with the 255s on the back it hooks perfect and hte 5 way takico suspention hold it all on the road! Its going to be the feature car in next months issue of Tuner Zine Magazine check it out!!:) Thanks for all the kind words honestly I didn't dig the wheels at first! LOL But the really set the color off the color has added pearl and added flake to really make it shine!:)

....i love this car.....

very nice pics......!!!
