G'day from Oz

Allen Walker · 04-07-2008, 01:14 AM

Hi Guys and Girls,

I bought myself a MR2 last Friday.

She has 49,000 Kms on the odometer and is JDM spec rather than Australian spec.

I've skimmed through some of the threads in the forum and the forum looks great.

Best Regards,

Allan

Welcome Allen, clean deuce you got there.

Allen Walker · 04-08-2008, 07:42 PM

Thanks!

The car got the clean bill of health from Brisbane Southside Toyota yesterday - only the aerial antenna needs replacing. I'd budgeted for some new shocks so now they aren't needed for a while I can upgrade the stereo and speakers.

Cheers,

Allan

Thanks...hey i was wondering the same, I bought the car from a really good import yard, they have lots of skylines - maybe that's where they come from, they are the only modified part that came with the car, I'd love to know if they really are for definite!

I've just ordered some TRD parts to go on (thanks to the thread that advises you what to change after it's been serviced);

front and rear strut braces (they're going to take 2-3 weeks from Japan),
oil filler cap,
radiator cap,
HT leads,
and Short Shift Kit - which comes with a new gear knob.

TRD have discontinued the HT leads so I was lucky to find a distributor in Sydney that had a set. Very trick looking. If anyone wants the part numbers - although I'm sure everyone knows already here is the website...

TRD ENGLISH TOP

I'm hoping to order some CF parts from madpsi.net as well to really trick this little car out!
