Sweet! did you see it online? if so, do you still have the picture or site? Just curious if i know the guy. Ive passed out roughly 30 stickers here in Japan.

Welcome aboard too, nice to have you here.

That's an awesome rolling shot. Looks perfect for a desktop.

And your MR2 looks great, too! Do you have pictures of your street-setting?

koffee-black · 12-19-2007, 05:20 PM

Thanks guys, only got pics of my old wheels....also blew 2nd gear last night at the drags, still managed a 13.2 with no 3rd gear. Im sure a mid 12 is in it. First time running too!
