mr2andy · 02-27-2009, 04:20 PM

Hey guys.. got a quiestion for yall cali folks. I have a spare 3S motor that was built by DPRRacing. dprracing is based in california and I just want to know if any of you have heard of this shop and how good they are.

I got this built motor together with the car I purchase. The previous owner was putting this spare motor up together during his spare time then he got deployed to Iraq and never have time to complete it.

I have a short block + the head... I'm sure the short block was built by dprracing as they actually engraved their name and serial no on it.

Heard they are really good machine shop back then but it going down hill lately....

Any input will be appreciated.

Cheers
Andy

Davis · 02-28-2009, 01:41 AM

It's just plastic anything that will cut will suffice. Unless you want a nice clean cut then yes dremel it .

Hey Colin for sure! Just let me know when.

So one of my master techs dads just bought a 93 na smg sunroof.

I loved how he came to me and asked me questions. I was like wah O_o your the master tech!

And my master tech that I'm working under right now, his name is Jose, just gave me a copy of his Porsche clubs track video. Pretty sick!

STREET FIGHTER. It is full of PHAILS.

mr.asian.m2 · 02-28-2009, 02:02 AM

i'm planning on installing foglight on a na mr2 for my friend. but, after you cut to fit the foglight into place. how do you screw it on? is that where i have to weld something for the screw to go in? or ducktape? anyway, i hope you guys take pics and alot of pics for me to see. this would help me out alot too. also infor on the wire to the foglight... thanks guys.

Davis · 02-28-2009, 02:04 AM

The brackets should already be there from factory Frankie.

And if your lucky the car would be pre-wired for fogs. If you take out the corner lights and look around you'll see a small connector hanging. And yes that is the connector for the fog lights. Pop in a relay, wire up the switch and BAM, lights!
