1991 MR2 N/A
Base model
T-tops
Crimson Red
103K miles

18" Voxx Monza wheels - I'm not a fan. Presently looking into 16" staggered wheels.
Tint
Upgraded speakers, amp behind driver's seat and 10" sub behind the passenger seat.

Pictures aren't the best, so bear with me.







Plans for the future:

16" or 17" wheels, staggered and flush
Coilovers of some sort. Looking into BC Racing.
Front sway bar
Cheap eBay intake, and a EMSPowered Exhaust.

My friend works at a local camshaft shop (Delta Camshaft) so I am going to have a spare set of 5S cams sent in and made up for free. Maybe if I can get my hands on a complete 5S head I will have the head gasket-matched and valves lapped.


Questions, comments, concerns?

Holy $#!T! She's beautiful man! I might be joining you and having one of my own up here, if things start going in my direction. I got a couple of idiots really testing my patience right now and they are either being very disrespectful, or they made an error. We'll see. But she looks good, very nice and clean and petite.

Looks like it's been very well taken care of. What are your plans for it? Is it just a toy or will it be a new project?

Yeah, what are your plans for her? You going to go with a rear end clip for the swap or you going to go V6 on her?

Plans are to leave the 5S in for the next couple of years and build up the suspension components, and later on down the road I'll swap in a 3rd gen 3S. The motor is barely broken in, and I intend on milking that for as long as possible.

93 front lip
93+ shifter and twosrus short shift kit
New shocks and springs
Dished wheels


And it'll be good for a while. The 5S in this chassis is quick and has plenty of torque. I'm not looking to go super fast or put down big numbers right now.

Oh nice MR2. So you need a complete 5s head? I have one from a 91 MR2 if you need it. I have the whole engine actually.
