IMHO - the Alloys are the only thing that begs to be changed.

Enjoy your ride.

Cheers

i personally like the alloys and its not inspired by arush's gto. actually arush's gto and my car both are inspired by the ferrari.

Even the wheels are fine. But it could've been better, that's all.

Overall, it's a very sweet looking car. Keep it up!

thank you so much. i myself wanted the elegant look to remain.

guys what kinda job do you think we shou;d do to enhance the engine

What body kit is it? I have an MR2 turbo myself - and I like the origibal shape. The TRD kit is ok - but I'd like something more traditional - something that goes with original 80s design.

Anyone looking for an MR2. I have one - a hard top MR2 Turbo - very very special - that I might be willing to sell to a serious buyer. Don't expect a bargain though as this ones a direct 2005 import from Japan - and now restored to better than new.

No offense, but the MR2 always looked better in stock form..your kit kills the car. I'm sorry, I'm just giving you an honest opinion. For performance read up on TRD information for the SW20 chassis.

Dude
Doesnt it cause problems with the lip so down?

salty dog · 11th September 2008, 12:34

I agree with nitroxx. What would really work if you could just add working flares that allow the widening the track by just 2 inches on bothe sides - but then should curve back to the original body lines. Is that possible to do - I'd love to do that to my MR2

I agree, your car would have looked better if you had made subtle changes and lowered the car with some awesome aftermarket wheels.

The quality of the work is good though.

But at the end of the day its you who has to like it, so if you are happy then cheers:

Errr... where are the front turn indicators? Hidden in the vents?

desigNation · 15th September 2008, 20:17

i suggest you go for a better set of wheels, with lip, this looks really outdated.

TOYOTA make the MR2

MAZDA make the MX5

both are coupes
both are good cars and both come in N/A and Turbo versions

cheers

I second the comment above mine. I'm sorry but Toyota will not be happy! MRians will smile uncomfortably. The back is all J-Lo man! Not done! Sorry!

wildchild4lyfe · 28th June 2010, 10:26

its all about personal taste!
i personally like it even though it is a little too pimped for my taste.
i feel a good proportionate spoiler would do justice.
cheers and keep up the good work.as for performance...boost boost boost!
