Its Turbo Time's MR2 Only Magazine photoshoot!

Its been a while since I last posted in show and shine, my car has changed a lot since then. This shoot was done for issue 15 of MR2 Only Magazine which came out last month. Photographs by: Mark and John Hulbrock (blurvision) and Mark Balzarette.



Custom Top-Mount Garrett GT3076r (True Twinscroll)

Trunk-Mount Intercooler Dual 10" Slim Fans inside duct direct air out between tail lights and behind licence plate (folds down)


And here is the cover of Issue 15!


The car is apart again, I just painted in the motor bay, tucked the Engine bay wiring harness, and in the process of Installing CRW axle cages, a Southbend 6 puck clutch, and a bunch of heat protection.

I also have been working on a section of my website just for the car, it will have a ton of in depth pictures and information from all of the build stages.


More pics in my next posts

Here are some more:




The next 2 shots are a close up of the scoops behind the rear windows that I fabricated to feed air to the trunk mount Intercooler, Iv had alot of questions about these in the past so I made sure to get some good shots this time around:

One of my Favorite shot's, Mark's dad is hanging out of the window of the M, I'm driving down the center lane, and along comes a state trooper. Somehow we didn't get pulled over lol


These next shots really show how deep the candy red gets in low-light.

Thanks guys! those seats are actually an ebay special, I got them right when I bought the car cuz the stock seats were moldy and I was broke lol. Surprisingly there pretty comfortable and look good too.

It's a very sexy car as is...

Painting the carbon would tone it down a bit, which to some might look better. More of a smooth, quiet yet aggressive type stance as opposed to really showing off what it's all about. Keep em guessing per say.

You can go either way with it and it would still look great.


How do the 1/4 scoops vent into the truck? Do they just go past the engine bay and dump into the top corners or the trunk?
