NY Newbie with a '91 N/A

Hey everyone, my name is Ron, I am 17, and I just picked up THE '91 MR2 that I have dreamed of owning since I was a little kid. The exact one actually! With that said I didn't know/care about the turbo/non turbo thing back then! We might get to take care of that eventually as you can tell by my user name. I have been here before, didn't post much though, and I cant even remember what my user name was then. I was in the process of buying an MR2 from a relative at the time but then decided to go in a different direction. It was re-sold and wrecked a couple months later. I have been into the DSM world for quite some time so I know about turbos and have a good bit of general knowledge. (BTW check out DSMTalk.com if your into 1990-1999 Eclipse, Talon, Lasers, great place) Hopefully this will help me in the process of a timing belt install which is first on my checklist and the reason I got my car so cheap. (Free for an early Christmas present! ) The timing belt blew when my mother drove it to work today actually. She called me up and asked if I wanted it since she was going to sell it anyways but didn't want to in that condition. Needless to say I accepted. With all of that said I have to start searching for a T-belt! Oh and here are a couple pics of the car. Only difference is now it has factory toyota wheel covers on stock wheels. If your not into the body kit, dont worry, it will only be on until Upstate NY winter rips it off! Not that I hate it, just if I get the money it will probably be changed. Let me know what you think!

Picture of a Picture, FTL

Yeah, with the body kit, most people don't like the invader front bumper however I think that problem will be solved like you said with the upcoming winter
