Yeeaa....
Mom wants to keep it stock therefore my dad has to keep it stock. My brother and I hate them for it, and my brother wants to steal her engine for his 90' show. Dad doesn't want a supercharger in his truck since he doesnt plan on keeping that one for while. Brother is too poor for any more mods on his current project. Myself. still waiting on the right turbo t-top to come along to empty my pockets with cuz i refuse to do a 3sgte swap to a sunroof duece ... or do anything in general with the sunroof. |

My lack of gf at the moment means I have to vote based on my moms auto 93 integra twin carb which fails. Where do you order a mom with some taste with cars, mine hates my MR2s except the t-top cause it is "cute". She also drives a 93 Celica with so many blind spots it is like driving from inside a sealed box and keeps going on about how she could smoke my 91 if she tried but that car has the launching ability of a beached whale.

Since its getting cold my 91t doesn't see the road much any more. I would have to say that my mom's 99 CRV w/AWD and my G'fs 07 Ion are both faster than my 2. for now... over night frost = no traction.

I hate the sunroof... If it was if it was my choice i would cut the top off and make it a target top. Only thing is that im affraid of is that the framing (i believe) are stuctured a little differently between ttop sunroof hardtops. My luck, if i were to do this, i would be driving down the road hit a bumb and my car breaks in two...
now that i think about it ive sceen mk2 japan converatible kits such as this: trd2000gt-spider2.jpg - Image - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting oh boy now this has got me thinking... |

My G/Fs 1986 MR2 is faster than my MR2... But mine has 150K on the clock, hers is ALL original and has a hair over 70K.
However, My Rx-7 wouldnt even notice an MR2. So her 2 is faster than mine, but my 7 is faster than her 2 I think it equals out...On a side note my G/F is sooo into Toyotas she has owned close to 10 now, and currently owns a 1988 Corolla GT-S, and a 1990 Corolla SR5, along with her MR2. She has owned a Celica, a Pickup, several other two door Corollas. Whereas I have had dozens of 7's and two 2's... Its nice having a girl who is almost more into cars than you are, yet is attractive, and doesnt interfere with man time.. (Garage time ) And yet has much more knowledge and understanding about cars than most men (Product specialist for Dodge, Saturn, Toyota and Lexus.) I have to be the luckiest basterd on the planet.Last edited by LokiRx7; 10-26-2008 at 08:13 PM. |

my gf has a 03 v6 mustang
I don't own anything slower! my mr2 is built and once it's broke in and tuned I'm hoping it will make somewhere in the 350-400whp area. My dd is a 02 Acura 3.2TL type-S and it smokes her mustang! Then I have my motorcycle.....not that I need to go on but I have a 01 Suzuki SV650S; I'm expecting the mr2 to beat the bike on the freeway, haha but if anyone is in the Milwaukee, WI area and is looking for a bike, let me know, I want to sell mine! |
