Congratulations. I'm personally not a huge fan of the exterior, but the interior is nice. Good luck with it though.

Nice Luke. The drop looks good, I'm not entirely sure about the grill. I like that the huge Audi rings are gone, but it still needs something...maybe a Quattro badge in one of the lower corners? Haha, i actually thought that, and did it.... didn't notice your post till today ![]() ![]() -------------------- |

^^ That is one mean ride. I like to see those, and I rarely get to see them. But when I do, it's always a treat.

What do you do for a living? Because whatever it is, I need to start. I want tons of cash for a new EVO.

Not a bad DD...at all. So is that really an Evo or does it just have the wing?

It's a 2010 Evo GSR, and the wing is an option. The wing I liked was on MR Touring, but I didn't want an Automatic. I did however want the two big options (sight, speed & sound and Navigation), which comes with the spoiler...so Eh.

![]() 5sgte all-trac a work in-progress Looking real good. Any particular reason you decided to go with a Turbo 5s instead of the 3sgte? Is it because it is already 2.2? I am guessing that is an ST165 chassis? -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204

Probably a 5S bottom end mated to the 3S head. Budget stroker motor, but they make a decent amount of power. There was a guy selling his 3S/5S stroker in Portland for $3600. It had a dyno proven 360ish whp in a MR2. I think he sold the bottom end. The head is still on CL.

^^ Sweet! I have been wanting to get one of those for the canyons. I bet that lil guy is quick, huh?

It had a dyno proven 360ish whp in a MR2. I think he sold the bottom end. The head is still on CL. For real? On the MR2 I am keeping, I think the rings are going out. Every now and then (usually in idle or high RPM) it dumps some smoke out the tail pipe. Has an exhaust leak too... Also, I have noticed I cannot rev past 5rpm instead of pushing to redline. It kinda acts like there is a rev limiter and stops supplying power.. Like 4.5k-5k RPM.... That kinda bothers me and I dunno what that is. I kinda suspect the Turbo is going too.
