Cheap GT3071R kit on MR2 forums. Tempting but too big me thinks...

Nah, just the Australian delivered ones from 89 - 94 I think. I guess they thought aussies were more tough than japs Once you're moving it's barely noticeable. Parking is a bitch at first but once you get used to it just seems like the norm. People that complain about no PS need to harden up

Power steering is overrated. I prefer cars without X100.

LOL!!!!!! So much win.

Yeah, they come with SW20 rails The cloth is okay but it's a bit over the top for my interior. I think simple black/grey tones look great. The passenger side has a cigarette burn anyway.

Woot. Paid for and being sent on Monday!!! Getting my mate (motor trimmer) to make the centre bit dark grey. I don't really like the current design.

Who? The guy you see in your bathroom mirror each morning?

The old owner said he took it off for a reason. Something about the pod filter was knocking into the side of the engine bay. WTF?? From memory, I think it was some kind of black seal

Still got some stuff to get done. It's going in for some work in the next few weeks (gearbox, suspension, possibly bodykit fitment/respray) and then I'll bring it out. Also gonna make it a bit more 'track spec' soon because I'm going to do a hill climb this year So got Recaros coming and a few other bits and pieces.

I think that's what you'd call it. It's stock but when I got the car it was missing a hose. Pretty loud PSHH sound. So annoying.

LOL. *Grabs popcorn*

Yeah, mine will most likely be below legal height pretty soon Other than that they can't get me for much. Maybe atmo bov?

Yeah, P's FTL. February needs to hurry the f_ck up. I can't wait to be able to go out to dinner and have a beer, drive through a booze bus and not worry about losing my license for drink driving and high-powered vehicle

Sif Shan would be on his P's That would be a funny sight though.

At the age of 18 I had no interest in driving. I could walk/skate to school and friend's houses. I didn't even like cars at that stage. When I started working I realised that I needed to drive. Did 15 hours on my L's and then fluked my P's test. Once I started looking to buy a car I realised how awesome they were

That's a fair while. I thought I was bad @ 6 months late. If I got my license at 18 I would be getting my fulls in 4 days Unfortunately I've gotta wait til next year.

I've never seen an MR2 come with bucket seats from factory. Not even the late models. I don't doubt you though. Here is a 1998 interior. These seats look a little bit more bucket-like than mine, but it could just be the angle. The only differences I've seen are leather or suede trim upgrades. Surely you wouldn't classify them as buckets?

It's already fast enough with the GEN3 engine and current power mods. I might raise the boost later down the track but for now I'm very happy. Handling wise, again it's pretty damn good (in stock form, mind you) but I am doing a few upgrades. So far I have bought BC Coilovers, Cusco front/rear strut braces and I guess my lighter wheels and decent tyres count as handling mods too (or braking more-so). Future plans include sway bars and a few other small things. I'm not "autosalon fagging". The Recaros are for holding me in my seat through fast corners. If I wanted new seats for cosmetic reasons I would get my mate to retrim them for cheap. I'm taking my car to Haunted Hills later this year so all these mods are for a reason

Got a mate with genuine Recaros in Sydney who's selling. $1200 or $1350 with SW20 rails. Only problem is one small cigarette burn. I'd probably retrim them though as I don't like the fabric design. Just sent him an email seeing if he'd do them any cheaper for me

Turns out you were right Kris As soon as I asked the seller if they were genuine he changed the ad to "Bride STYLE seats" haha. Ah well...

My old Supra was listed as an 88 instead of a 98. Doesn't make any difference at all.

Good point. Have just sent him a question asking if he can provide proof that they're genuine (with a receipt or something). I know when I've bought some items they come with a certificate of authenticity.

He didn't buy it for himself He actually owns an RX7 with the plates "RTUNE". It's insane. They're not copies. Genuine BRIDE dude. Did you misread the word "cuga" as "copy"?

Woo, my boss is lending me his spare car so I can take my MR2 off the road for a while. Time to get it all fixed up! Also considering some nice Bride seats as a birthday present to myself. Like this: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Bride-cuga-seats-pa...rts_Accessories

I don't need Foxtel either I haven't watched TV in about 3 years!! I don't know how all you guys have so much free time It's not fair.
