hahaha... yeah. you know the place where the blowoff valve is at? well, there was nothing there. but, lucky for me. i had extra parts at home and install it already. engine running really good now.

[S.B713]

I just recently got it, well not so recently but 3 months ago. The interior is pretty clean, it has 170xxx miles, my turbo needs a rebuild though i can see oil around it so i need to fix that soon i got a T3 Garret turbo layin around my house but dang theres few stuff gotta change to make it work not ready for that yet, a/c compressor is stuck i found one for $75 will change that but seems kinda complicated right now n havent had time Loll, few details here n there such as RPM gauge not workin and broken foglights and the freakin E-brake "sometimes" works lol, but besides that runs strong, . There was no really major body work needed, but alot of detailing since the clear was peelin off everywhere...But overall im happy with it, imo is fun to drive

[mr.asian.m2]

wow.. only 3 months? that is really a good deal. wish i could of find a deal like that. i also just got my turbo upgrade when i had it rebuild. replace my ebrake too. the new 2 also need to have the ebrake replace. doing it this monday.

[S.B713]

i use the sock turbo. just had it rebuild but, ask them to upgrade it. the normal rebuild was around $500. the up grade rebuild was around $800. up grade rebuild...i know what it is call. just can't spell it. hahaha.... feel dumb.

[S.B713]

This guy that my dad knows is chargin me $250 for the basic rebuild , So i guess the upgrade pretty much is a bigger compressor? What you think about it?

Car looks good Frankie.
Here's the info on the 95 stolen MR2,

Stolen 1995 MR2 - Spread the word.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Very rare...

http://www.mr2oc.com/showthread.php?t=311935

My 1995 Toyota MR2 Turbo was stolen off of my Driveway in Naperville, IL last night or early this morning. (2008-07-24/25 between 9pm and 8am)
Yes, the car was locked with NO keys inside. Funny thing: it was blocked in by my truck.

If anyone sees it, PLEASE let me know asap!

DISTINGUISHING FEATURES:
1995
Black/Tan
Stock one-piece rear wing
T-tops
Stock fog lights
Rogue Rev6 headlights
Clear corner signals
Cross-drilled / slotted rear rotors
Antenna locked in "up" position
Otherwise stock
License plate starts with: "VUDU.."
No front plate

SO...
If anyone happens to see any used Rev-6, clear corners, or other 95T parts for sale (on MR2 forums or Craigslist or elsewhere), please let me know. Maybe we can find this guy. thanks!

$250??? good god man. you are getting all the good deal. i said.. go for it. but, just get the normal rebuild. if you up grade your turbo. that mean you have to spend more money to up grade your engine for it to handle the new and more powerful turbo.

dave... thanks man. but, the car look better in photo. need alot of body work also.

[S.B713]

Im not plannin doin on any mods to the engine this year, just wanna catch up with maintanence, and few cosmetics and a better suspension for sure, but ill get to see yalls guys deuces on 8/9 so that'll be fun

Frankie -- Toms wheels FTW! And MAACO is still having that special for paint for whenever you want the new '2 sprayed.

Also maybe have a new guy? Met him at the town center Starbucks, his name is Jesse...has a great looking kitted Spyder and is sorta looking for a turbo kit. Told him about H-I, hopefully he finds this thread...

Yes sir... still alive... half dead though... being very busy ... didn't mean to ignore you guys.. I'm checking the board from time to time..

can't wait for the Kim's meet.. are we pushing the Lake of Houston meet further down? or.. still on the same plan?

[mr.asian.m2]

bad news guys. look like the new mr2 will not be able to make it out to this meet due to missing parts that will arrive late. i just oder it today and will take about 2 week to deliver.

so, look like you have to look at my pearl white 2 again.
