Hello MR2 owners. I just bought my 2nd MR2. The first one I owned was back in 2000. It was a 88 N/A MKI with only 33,000 miles on it. I loved driving it, but sold it for something more practical. I regretted it everyday. Now I'm driving a 93 N/A MKII. It's a pleasure to drive and I have plans for it. Maybe not big plans, but we will see. So far I've put an Alpine deck conected to my Ipod Touch, ordered 4 MB Quart 5.25" with components, 3.5" Kickers, a shift knob from Twos R Us, a tune up kit (cap, rotor, plugs, and wires) and a Weapon-R Secret Weapon Intake. Any advise on entry level mods is greatly appreciated. Look forward to talking to many of you!

Always cool to see another northerner rollin' around in a 2

I'm in the west metro myself, make sure you check into the regional forum!

Regarding mods, unless you're just interested in tinkering and don't really care what the result is it's important to have a plan. What would you like to accomplish with the car?
