This might be a better question for mr2oc but im going to go ahead and ask... He wants a built car in 2 weeks for 7k? Not going to happen, take your time or blow your stuff up. The prices between the brand names you have mentioned are huge. Autometer vs. Defi, Spearco vs. Berk. Look if you want bang for your buck, I wouldnt shoot for more than 240-285hp. Ive doubled that on my mr2 and its way to much. Hes a honda boy asking to boost power, so the first thing you should do is NOT listen to him and make him do brakes. 93'' Toyota Mr2 brakes will be perfect, new rotors and some good pads and some ss lines Berk side mount ct-27 or a td06 is your best turbo choice (if you go td06 get an ex wastegate just incase) 3'' downpipe Some decent tires on your rims. Just snag some azenis, cheapy racing tires so he can learn hes not driving a Honda anymore. If your die hard on nur spec understand at WOT your going to bleed from the ears, I sold mine asap I use a Blitz SBC ID w/ power meter for bling but any EBC will do. If you REALLY are going Standalone ECU, dont go Apex-i Intake, get a KO Racing or Turbohoses Velocity Stack, ditch that AFM asap. Dont do toms scoops, just please. Dont bother with Co2, just get a Joe's Water Injection Kit Which TEIN are you going with? Flex? Super Street? Etc.? Shop around, TRD pillow ball mounts are the only ones that arn't metal on metal TRD Struts and sways should be obvious Not sure in what you mean by "Supra style" but if your reffering to removal of that line in the side vent, 2 sideskirts do it. Greddy and Toms, or you could shop around for just the vent on ebay. |

If your goal is 110whp, im just curious why you feel you want that number? Seems kinda like a waste only to get you in more trouble, gutting the cats out of a cali car will get you a "gross polluter" ticket. Just a heads up. |

was it love, or was it the fact youve settled into a relationship and just expect it. Thats what I was hung up on, talked to someone everyday for 4 years, it just was like in my routine. It was changing my routine that was the most difficult thing. not diminishing your thoughts, just maybe a second viewpoint to see from. |

Straight up, a break is. Im curious to see if I can do better, if I cant lets get back, If I can your on the curb. A break is an insult, but its a trick people who think they are better try and pull. If you care, you are there, if you question it, then you don't really need that person, you dont have to see them everyday, why a break, why not just say im gunna be with my friends for a bit. Thats the point. QUOTE(Jen @ Mar 26, 2007 - 12:05 AM) [snapback]539822[/snapback] I swear to God, Miguel has the worst relationship advice ever. A break is like this, it's a time to work things out, with a promise of being together in the end after everything is sorted out. When I go on a break, it is basically a friendship. No kissing, no sex, etc. Just a friendship. During this "friendship" period, you work on the things that needed to be worked on. After both persons feel as if they are both ready to start the relationship over, you do. Usually during this break/friendship period, you fall in love with them all over again. I wouldnt take relationship advice from you lol. Reasoning behind who you dated and what you did with the,. Migga has great advice in my opinion, why play relationship games. Get to the point, if your ment to be, your ment to be, dragging it out will only make things worse, anyone can force themsleves to love someone but the cliche of "true love" cannot reach itself in that manner. Nada Surf - Popular, listen to the first 15 second or so. |

Orbital, yes I have driven a 500hp rwd car but no I dont drift it. I have drifted in the past with a MKIII supra, the MKIV are a lot easier to get tail happy personally. Its just not a sport for me, he did a rookie mistake and needs to go back to basics instead of going in head first. Playr158, the car is heavvvvily modded to be a great drift car, hense why its been so sucessful in the past. Its a car, yes. But its a responsibility given to him and he just threw it away like all the respect he has with the things handed to him. Ill bet if you were 16, got a free viper, supra and anything else you desired you wouldnt have respect for anyone not of your "level" |

QUOTE(BLINKYxMUNKEY @ Jan 28, 2007 - 11:03 PM) [snapback]522133[/snapback] Can't to see him drift in the D1 series. He is going to get destroyed. Also glad, that wasn't his supra either. I 100% wish he was in the supra his dad got him, not "his" supra. No respect for people with free things, they learn NOTHING in terms of respect. Its to bad he wrecked a good drivers car because VH1 wanted ratings. Another child from a celebrity which is trying to leach off mommy/daddys fame. Sad.... QUOTE(ThrwnSprkz @ Jan 29, 2007 - 10:19 PM) [snapback]522464[/snapback] i know everyone hits the wall... i sure have. and im sure i will again. but hes 15 and yes he used to talk very cocky before. hes on one of my other forums. I have respect for him tho, hes a lucky kid who recieved the chance of a lifetime, i hope he does well... ill be rooting for him more than I root for Sam H. or Reese M. (i dont care for them as drift drivers) but hes accually hit the wall 3 times now (that im aware of) he wrecked at Irwindale before too, understeered right into it on his first lap of amature qualifying back when the viper was still blue. But heres a pic thought you'd all enjoy... LOL ![]() He still talks trash, hardcore. Hes on the supra forums often untill they all laughed at him for crashing. But I guess his "Hours of practice" didnt help. Why do you have respect for someone who has earned nothing? Achieved nothing? Done nothing to get the things he has? So if somoene handed me 10 million you would be like damn hes a hard worker he deserves that? I think Sam is a great driver, Ken and a lot of them, this is not a sport I am good at but like to watch. I hope he crashes agian and gets hurt so we can see 10 books and 100 episodes on "the trooper was hurt, but hes GOING TO COME BACK Watch Hogan strive to victory" junk. |

A HONDA revving to 9k maybe, my car doesnt sound anything like that near 9000. All cars sound different, but the second I had to drive that sound more than 1 hour I would want to kill myself.

Tufy runs 10's, it wouldnt even be a conest. (no Thats not fast at all, I dont believe its a 400 hp supra either, wether it be stick or auto, or modded or not. I saw rims but who cares? The civic is gutted with an expensive motor and im guessing a build. So no, thats like me trying to race a semi-truck with my mr2 then brag out it. Building a 10 seconds civic is cool and all, yes its fast but at the end of the day when you get out of your car and walk to your door, you turn around and its still a civic. You can spraypaint crap gold, wont make it anything other than crap. |

Ya like 90% of the people on mr2oc think its ugly to, the headlights dont exactly match up with the slope of the mr2. (least the MKII) Its hard to do, just do a flushmount or rev6!!!!

http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/price/Toyo...ent_Stand_Alone Is thge power fc from horsepower freaks, a 3s is a 3s. AEM is a brand found here. http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/price/Toyo...ent_Stand_Alone You could also go motec but thats like using a nuke to kill a fly. Not needed for our applications. Good tuners will have access to a dyno, a laptop to tune, and a wideband among other things. Perhaps access to racegas if you want an agressive tune as well. and most of all experience. the Hydra Nemesis is also an option http://mrcontrols.com/ Its not widley known so unless you know a tuner familar with it dont go that route. I have it, and im satisfied, but if I went back id go Power FC. (hell i wouldnt of used the 3s either haha) |

Well look at it from their point of view to. Random kid on city property, id investigate to. They never know what your up to. But ive been watched in many places when taking pictures of my car. Had cops (3 or 4 of them off duty but showed their badges)walk over and ask me for a ride when my friends and I lined everyone up. (93 rx7, 91 mr2, my mr2, evo, 86 rolla w/ 20v, and a turbo s2k) cali has far to many automotive laws. Nice picts by the way |
