Good reputable places to get parts from?

lmp9002002 · 10-20-2009, 11:17 AM

Ok well I've got a '92 NA thats in good mechanical shape, but is too stock for me. im looking into doing things like new springs, shock tower support bars, new brakes, blue LED's in the gauge cluster, among a few other little things. I've been wondering, since it's pretty hard to find parts for mr2's, where do you guys get all your stuff from?

More info needed. What kind of drop are you looking for or are you going to lift it?

Ebay quality strut bars or TuRD quality? Stock pads or race pads?

About a 1" drop- i've had my eyes on the Eibach Pro-Kit springs but not sure where to order them from
Definitely TRD quality strut bars, i've had some bad experiences with ebay quality parts.
Not necissarily stock or race pads, somewhere in between. Noise and dust isnt a problem, just want something with some stopping power for agressive driving on the street.

You can get TRD springs (1" drop, pair it up with some Koni Yellows and you'll be in heaven) and TRD strut bars from Aaron at Lithia Toyota, our sponsor. At least I think he still has some in stock. Better act quick!

I get my pads and alot of my other oem related parts from Twos R Us - Parts for Toyotas from Club MR2. I'd recommend, leaving the front pads stock (A few people had given me that recommendation also). If you get anything more the fronts tend to lock up quicker. I run Porterfield R4-s's in the rear. Working out so far in AutoX.

Happy shopping.

Oh and all of our sponsors would be a great place to spend all of your hard earned money!
