Pretty much stock for now, so far only has a tint on all windows cept windshield, navan wing spoiler, and pioneer sound system. Coilovers are coming in a months or so, (shipped all the way from taiwan, damn customs) and currently rim hunting. Getting VLSD soon for it soon also, will be slidin around :).

ac427cpe - I thought the JDM MR2s game with mid mounted 4AGZE's (S/C version of my engine). ???

ac427cpe - I thought the JDM MR2s game with mid mounted 4AGZE's (S/C version of my engine). ???

Ha I think he went all out on this one, 3sgte is what like anywhere from 200 to 245 hp stock aaaaaaaaaand whats the 4agze like 120 or something I'd rather go with mk2 mr2 engine...either go big or go home :D

That MR2's gonna be quite a project.

I can't even imagine how you'd fit a 3sgte in there.

While its visible daily on here below

the mr2 has been done for about 2 months... just no shocks yet.


edit: OZ, it started life as an 85 n/a but i shoehorned a 3sgte into it, redid the wiring... new mounts... new everything. it's not the same mr2 anymore, it went from a 112bhp car to a (taking it to the dyno soon to be tuned) ~250rwhp car that weighs about the same (it's on a diet)

it's not a jdm car, it's a usdm car with a lot of work ;)

next project: fiero GT or mk2 mr2 with a countach v12 :D

http://images.cardomain.com/member_images/4/web/220000-220999/220444_14_full.jpg

There is no room for the project car since I fly out on the 25th to Ohio to pick up another 1989 LeBaron GTC Turbo II that is in near mint condition. I'll get some pics up as soon as I get it here. You can see my cars by clicking on the links in my sig for their CarDomain sites.

ac427cpe - sweet! Have you considered a 4A-GTE conversion from here? You can sit an intercooler on the top of the engine bay at the rear and feed it with scoops. Wind the boost up a bit and gorrrnnneeee. :D

Whats the point of an automatic supra?
Install a higher stall converter and it'll spool up a hell of a lot quicker.

the intercooler does go on top in my current setup, and no... no 4agte engine in this car... maybe the next one. with the 3sgte i can do the same modifications the second gen turbo guys do, but i weigh 800lbs less.

Whats the point of an automatic supra?

Quicker 1/4 times...that and not everyone wants a 6spd...although if I ever got a Supra it would be either anthicrite or RSP 2 best colors for the car.

currently i'm driving around a 2001 Accord 4-cylinder 4-door automatic...AKA the most boring car on earth. it does what it needs to do (transports you) and not a thing more. no excitement at all. i'm sick of it.

can't drive my 240SX since it's rusted to shit. a sale is pending, if only the fucker would call me back.

i'll be buying a new car within the next week. options are...

'86 AW11
'89 240SX
'90 240SX
'90 240SX
or
'90 240SX

and yes, the last three are seperate cars.

i'll keep you updated and if i get one of the above, i'll post it's pic in this thread.

Have you thought about a '90 240SX? :thefinger

Ricochet - I think I'd rather roll in your car over every other car listed yet. SWEET!

For the only remaining pic of my car that I possess, please see the sig.

Details:
1994 Honda Civic LX
D15b3 Single carb 1.5 engine
5 speed manual (transmission dodgy)

100% fully stock and about to get some minor panel work done and some new wheel trims (Because the other ones are curbed)

It's going up for sale at the end of the year and I'm going to buy either:

a 1994-1998 Accord (EXi-S or VTi-S manual)
a 1992-1997 Ford Telstar 2.5 XRi or Mazda 626 V6 Sportshatch
a Peugeot 306 OR
an E36 BMW 318i (Least likely due to unlikelyness to find a decent NZ-New example in my price-range)

Dayna, I want that white car. That thing is pure sex.



theres a lot more pics of it in my gallery if you're interested

Ricochet - I think I'd rather roll in your car over every other car listed yet. SWEET!
Thanks a lot man, but all the RX-7's (especially Dayna's orgasm on wheels) and that Camaro SS really stand out more to me :)

wow, if just looking at it does that to you, I'd hate to see what would happen if you heard it... Ever heard a supertrapp muffler on a rotary?

I know three people with fd's, more than $10k - $25k poured into each one and no other automobile sounds like it. I have to dab my crotch with a wet towel every time they leave our local hangout spot.

this car sounds completely different. it idles like a bridgeport, FD's flow through a turbo, and this one still has factory ignition, where the ignition in a FD is a direct fire setup... I've already gotten pulled over for it being too loud.

Moss - go the peugot out of that list. :)

Ricochet - no way mate. LOVE what you have done with it. Some well thought out power upgrades, looks killer and very understated. Very, very well done.

I use some white pile of shit that someone apprently thinks is a Honda Prelude. Being that it starts to get asthmatic above 5,000rpm I do wonder though.
I would love to say I drive it, but being that it has no brakes, no power and suffers chronic understeer its a bit more like piloting a small whale.
I used to dive an EF9 SiR, which saw 8,000rpm on a daily basis, that was a real Honda.

I also drive an 8ton Mitsubishi Canter, but they won't let me take it home, apprently its to big to have as a company car.

i have no pictures but i drive a 93 ranger single cab

mods:
hmmm where to begin, oo how the the glass pack that the previous owner put on it. thats gotta add at least 60 hp
and i cant forget the broken motor mounts- those alone are enough to get me into the mid 10's at the track :banghead:

no my truck really sucks. i hate it but it will be fixed by mid summer hopefully and maybye if i learn how to post a damn picture ill show you how gay my truck really is

Moss - go the peugot out of that list. :)

Yeah, that's what I really want, but the SR sedan (ugly), XN and XR hatches are the only ones I can really afford. While they handle great, the engines are a little weasy, now an S16 or XSi on the other hand would rock, maybe I can get a Jap-import one for a reasonable price. But I'll see how that pans out.

At least parts shouldn't be a problem on any like they were on the Jetta. All four cars are relatively common on NZ roads :D I probably will get the Accord though, I loved the Red EXi-S my dad used to have :D (Even if I was too young to drive it and consequently didn't)

Whats the point of an automatic supra?

Same point as an automatic Porsche 928 - they're not really sports cars (the MR2 and 911/944 were for that), they're Grand Touring cars. The point of the GT genre is to make cars that cover lots of ground (such as driving across Europe) very quickly and comfortably, with room for a friend and luggage, and then if your sports car isn't available that day for some reason, your GT car can double as a track car. When you compare the Supra and 928 to other GT cars such as the Jaguar XKR or Aston Martin DB7, having an automatic is more understandable, even if a manual is still preferable to you.

Ricochet: NICE! I'm not at all a Civic fan, but that is by far the cleanest one I've ever seen, has lots of go and just enough show to look great. In fact, I'd say that's one of my favorite cars posted so far...

MBTN: I didn't realize your FC was so clean - so many are so beat.

Here's my car. Meh, it gets me around, starts everytime, is quiet and comfy, and gets good gas milage. 1.6 DOHC, 5-speed, only mod is a factory CD player put in.
