This is the first MR2 ive owned,

1991 Black SW20 3SGTE.

I absolutely love this car. Ive been researching them for about 6 years (and im only 20), and i finally bought one. Unfortunatly some of the mods on the major MR2 website arent exactly mature to say the least, which normally would make it pretty hard to be enthusiastic about the MR2 scene and make it hard to tune without advice.. but there are ways around that. All ive had time to do are some basic mods:

KYB AGX 4 way adjustables
EIbach pro kit
diamond cut corners, orange bulbs.
Momo shift knob
TRD Boost gauge
Dual gage pilliar pod
Police scanner with integrated speaker-in-heater duct (drivers side)
2 way radio mount on roll bar
camcorder mount (hope depot ) on center console..

I would have a LOT more including the ATS racing upgraded Greddy TDO6 turbo kit, but ive had to replace nearly everything in the engine bay.
