  1. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? :lol:

  2. Don't have any videos sadly, but it sounds bad right now since the cars been doing nothing for over 6 months(Do run it every week for a few mins, but not long due to the cooling system problems). When I start making some proper money i'd be wanting a new exhaust and rims, but for the time being its just what I can afford. :( There's lots of rust on it sadly, but thats really because of the 2 winters(Last one should count as 2, as there was so much snow) and then threes all the rain the North east of Scotland gets. Going to sort it out though! I find Toyota's in general seem to be left out by people modding cars over in the UK! MR2's(Mk2's) are becoming more of a rare sight. Celica's the same as well! But the last gen MR2's and Celica's are still common! Shame about it really! Tuned MX5's are starting to appere more and more though! Feel a bit of a car hipster at times though, when seeing what's popular and what's not! lol

  3. The 4A-GE does sound great! Our MR has a after-market exhaust on it added by one of the last owners! looks nice and i plan to make it shiny again! And maybe add some tips on to them! (can see the backbox, and a pipe at each side of it, but there quite small) Our was in a Ok state when we got it, but its been left outdoor the past 2 winters....First was due to its MOT and getting work done to it, and the other was because we were moving and were storing stuff in the garage! :( And As Mk1's are known for Rust..its worked wonders for the bodywork! But No amount of sanding and Glassfiber Cant fix that! lol And thanks for the link to Fensport, I hadn't herd of them! I've not had to get any parts for it until now(Other than a thermostat, but got that from a friend of a friend). Most people I know have a Euro of some sort like a Vauxhall or a VW so I havent bothered asking them for websites! lol

  4. *Spams your profile back:cool:*

  5. Managed to take the pump off today! and it's the hardest I've ever had to take off! Problem is not with the 4A-GE engine(same as in the Corolla AE86) but its that Toyota never really engineered it that well! Really just taking the engine and dumping it in the back! And unlike the AE86, the engines transverse mounted with the gearbox right next to it! So its really not ideal to work on it while its in the car! But It's off and Going to order the parts! And if it runs fine then, next year I'll be taking it to trackdays! It Could be there as when the cars were made, it was easer to have them installed in all of them rather than add/remove parts depending on what edition it is! And Wish My local Toyota dealer had that, Ours know nothing about older Toyotas! And they could get parts for ours but charge crazy prices! Tempted to open a thread about the MR if the new water-pump solves the problems! Have a plan for it if it does! :D

  6. I'll be giving the MR a good clean when I've fixed the water pump! Things been lieng around for ages! :( Bad thing is the Mk1's are known for Rust..and it was outside During all the snow we had in the winter! :( And moving house never helped! But I've got a Plan for it if it is just the water pump that needs fixed! :P And I'm not sure what the Box could be, Toyota's got more advanced after the 80's so it could be anything! :( does it look like it should be there or not? Our's doesn't have the original sound system in it(No stupid Sub woofers or anything, just new speakers) and there's some dodgy wiring for it! I'd have a quick search online maybe?

  7. Hey! I do Still have my MR2, just been nelglecting it for the past 6 months! :( When i have the time, the weather is't wanting me to work on it! Theres nothing under the Driver's or passengers seats on mine that we diddent put there. :(

  8. 'm not a fan of Speed or Aggression boost, but in the case of the Tempesta i like it! Also i like how the carbon cars have diffrent boost types, the Carbon X12 is a Stunt boost which just turns the car into a rocket! lol

  9. I has it for PS3! The Hawker is ace as well, but thats mainly because it looks like a Sagaris! lol Most of the cars ingame are copys of ones i love in real life!(Watson R-Turbo is another one i use alot!)

  10. Yeh! Had it for ages and just started to replay it again! :D Great game and the carbon X12 is Epic! lol

  11. It is an epic pic! :P I got the original from the website Speedhunters, They had a feture on the car it's self, which has some nice photos of it! And they also have some desktop sized pic's as well! Heres the link to the Car Feature of it, and heres a link to the Desktop background of it! :)

  12. Just a quick message to anyone who looks at this(dunno if you exist?) that i'll be on here more and more often! :)
