Engine: 1.6L 4-AGE 16v

Exhaust: stock-o-standard (as far as I can tell....)

Suspension: stocko also

Wheels: *ahem* again....stock....tongue.gif

Modifications: Ram air pod intake (I though it was just a pod, but the mechanic is calling it a "ram air pod" dunno.gif )

Stereo Audio / Visual: Yup, you guessed it. Stock. tongue.gif

Estimated Power: car is listed at 80kw. I'm guessing the pod maybe adds another 1 or 2? maybe not....

So here it is! my 1988 Toyota MR2 AW11. Picked it up this morning, took it to my bro for a detail and then went for a quick spin through the suburbs. Love this car to absolute peices. Its so amazingly fun to drive!

Current plans involve rims (badly needs rims. I'm thinking either some white enkei rims, or some 5 spoke bronze). Paint will at some point need redoing (lots and lots of chips). Interior I'm going to replace all the cloth with an "angry" orange vinyl. Needs a cd player too. Thinking of naming her "Black Betty" tongue.gif. if I can get 6 digit plates, maybe BLKBTY would be a good choice, if I ever go personal! tongue.gif

Let me know what you think!!!!

    Wanted a SC but there's a chance I may not pass my drivers test, which would mean selling the car!

    If I pass I can always do a quick conversion if I really feel the need. for the moment, 80-something kw is more than enough for me! Gotta learn how to drive first tongue.gif don't want the next pics of my car to it wrapped round a tree tongue.gif

    Damn that's one big mother of a siren (I'll assume that's what it is).

    Looks like it'll be a good car, the sharp lines take a while to grow on me though...

    Yah, its slightly large tongue.gif. As for the sharp lines, the first time I saw this car I thought it looks really...um..."interesting" is a nice way to put it tongue.gif. It grew on me though smile.gif.

    Hehehe yeah, I'm having the L plates ripped out in about 2 months, if I get in before the new regulations I'm going to leave the car without plates, but if I'm late, I'm going to replace the L plates with some pimpin green P plates. Should look pretty hot tongue.gif.

    I would personally get rid of the spoiler and chuck diablo's on it.
    Not as big as these though.

    Good choice man.

    And it's good to see an intelligent new driver on the road.

    Good luck with those plans... And get the rims with the blue...

    Nice car, looks clean.

    Usually I don't like wheels with centre caps or assembly bolts that much, but I think they would look pretty good on that sort of car.

    hehe, I'm not sure if I qualify as intelligent, but I try to at least think twice about everything do first! tongue.gif

    Yeah I'm really liking the idea of white rims. Going to be a bitch to keep clean, but thats why my brother is a car detailer tongue.gif. Pity he still charges me tongue.gif

    Thanks again! smile.gif

    Some engine and suspension mods would be all I need to keep me satisfied, how much do these beasts way?

    Never the biggest fan, but the 'gearshift above the shoulder' (not quite literally but you get the idea) seating position always intrigued me! They look fun for sure!
