Mr2 Rear Slottled Canopy?

SVX92 · 06-16-2009, 07:13 PM

I've seen these on a few MR2's, and as far as I can tell most were some sort of TRD item. Just not sure what it's called, much less where I can get some good images to try and replicate one. heres a vid if anyone knows what it's called.

YouTube - MR2(TRD2000GT) TC1000????

Are you referring to the rear window louvers?

my bad had I done a search I would have found that bad boy. Yet another useless thread, so mods you can lock this one or delete it. Thanks for the reply's everyone. It was driving me nuts.

As of Thursday I'll be a proud owner of a 91 MR2 non-turbo!

What?? You got a deuce?? Pics???

tstoney82 · 06-17-2009, 05:58 PM

i want one of those.....pretty sick looking

SVX92 · 06-17-2009, 06:02 PM

I'll post pics once I pick the sucka up! It's got some work to go, and I'm thinking about selling the 300zx and using the funds to do some work on an engine swap and light build.

I've been spending a lot of time looking at houses too though, so I may be putting it off a bit.

Ya I found one outside of corvallis for 3500, I offered him a bit less and will be picking it up for 2900. It's got 212k on the body with a newer engine. Some dings on the outside, but it is a HARDTOP! this made me very excited. Really the only reason I'm buying it over an already turbo model.

SW21T · 06-17-2009, 06:28 PM

Nice find, can't wait to see it. What color is it?? The dings not a biggie.

tstoney82 · 06-17-2009, 09:59 PM

i'd scoop up a hardtop in an instant. wouldnt care if its turbo or not. but i like my t-tops. plus the wife thinks its sexy......

SVX92 · 06-19-2009, 03:17 AM

So I drove that bad boy home. It's got some different things that could do with fixing. All in all the purchase went smooth. Pictures tomorrow as it's late now.

To answer the question Yellow, it's the blue/green, it's a 91. Ran well, does make some rattle and such from what sounds like the heat shield. The brakes are pretty well in need of being resurfaced as they make a god awful screech.

I couldn't be happier about getting one, aside from my savings took a hit. However I'll probably more than make it up if I do end up choosing to sell the 300zx. I don't really want to, but sometimes you got to choose. I just like having the light and agile mr2, and the low end torque of the 300zx. Plus the MR2 would be horrifying in winter conditions.

as a side note the g/f loved driving it.

Just as long as she doesn't dare call it "cute"

SVX92 · 06-19-2009, 01:16 PM

too late, her and my mom both called it a "cute" car lol. I was sad to hear it, but meh, at least she wasn't nagging about me getting it. She almost seemed to want it more than I did

Nice but still want pics!! LOL it's not that bad, I drove mine in the winter before...Only problem I had was making it out of the drive way

other than that it handled normal as long as you don't step on it..
