South Carolina...charleston specifically

nnamssorxela · 08-20-2007, 06:57 PM

Worst comes to worst if I dont get an mr2 you guys can use this to meet each other!
I do however plan on purchasing a 91 MR2 after I get the buying/insurance sorted out, but there's always that unexpected problem...

I'm in Charleston, SC and would like to get to know some other MR2 owners. I'm only aware of seeing one...today in North Charleston just off spruil (sp?) Is there anyone else out there?

yo, i used to be an mr2 owner, sold it to a guy in columbia, now i own a buell. im in summerville

nnamssorxela · 08-20-2007, 09:41 PM

buells are the coolest bikes. I think that they really did what no one else has ever done with a bike, went outside the box with crazy styling that just works. Why'd u sell your 2?

wanted a bike and one toy had to go for another

the mr2 was becoming a money pit.

Wow, I haven't been to chucktown in years. I went to summerville and goosecreek h.s. I've had my mr2 for 6 years now. It's highly modified and I will sell it in the next year or 2. Im sure you will find another by then. Im in ATL now though.

I've got a 1988 T Top that I hope to get back on the road in about 2 weeks
there is few MR2 running around here but can't get together with them.
Chatted with GhostRider a few times and sorry I didn't get to see his MR2
Hey Ghost got any parts left and whats a gruntbox?

GhostRider · 08-25-2007, 03:59 PM

gruntbox is for the supercharged cars with bigger pulleys, the pulleys creat a lean condition under 3500rpm and this fixes that and richens the mixture a bit. I also have a turbo for sale too. I just got tired of pouring money into the car. Ill get another someday.

nnamssorxela · 08-25-2007, 04:45 PM

Ghostrider, you have a turbo for sale? how much are you asking?
Thanks,
Alex

GhostRider · 08-25-2007, 06:01 PM

its a garrett t25 that i bought from my friend, who said it was rebuilt. Has very little shaft play. 125 and its yours.

ah lol, not sure about the fit on a subie, what kind of subaru? I was going to use it on my 4agze but i dont have that anymore

nnamssorxela · 08-25-2007, 10:49 PM

well a subaru's turbo set up is some what unique I'm told... but I'm sure any turbo can fit. It's an 02 WRX.

gotcha, not sure if you would want to use a t25 on a wrx, i was planning on using it on my 1.6 L engine.

nnamssorxela · 08-26-2007, 10:53 AM

yeah, I checked out my friends subie, and the t25 is just a little bigger (the stock ones are tinnnnny) It probably wouldnt be worth the work.
thanks though,
Alex

GhostRider · 08-27-2007, 07:43 PM
