Damn Davis! Yeah I'm going to go get the parts sometime tomorrow or Friday. I have to call them and make sure it is in stock. If I have questions, can I call you for help?

Davis · 03-04-2009, 06:36 PM

Yeah for sure, it's pretty easy though, so I don't think you'll need my help.

o6spdracer · 03-04-2009, 06:37 PM

Dennis are you talking about a double din head unit? You can do one in the 2. There is a writeup about wiring the fog lights up. Here you go: '91-'92 MR2 fog light modification with pics.

Davis · 03-04-2009, 06:44 PM

Hey Mark! I have an idea, sell Saki wingless so I can take the 94 spoiler!

honda_bar · 03-04-2009, 07:07 PM

The O2 sensor is inside the car under the passenger carpet?

o6spdracer · 03-04-2009, 07:22 PM

The only way to gain access to it is by removing the passenger side carpet. Check it out: Bank2Sensor2 Replacement

masagsxr · 03-04-2009, 07:26 PM

Oh wow.. its there? Daym I swear sometimes these designers/engineers are wack hehehehe

honda_bar · 03-04-2009, 07:36 PM

mixxer, would you happen to have a tiny bit of electrical tape if I needed it? I losted mine

Also, I went drifting today in the rain. Note to self: don't try to over take someone on tight turns with 60% throttle while attempting (dad told me not shift in the middle of turn) getting in third gear. I counter steered out of habit and it looked pro. I was more like

It scared me a bit. Happened again a minute later but to a lesser degree. Rain doesn't like my car therefore, I don't like rain!

masagsxr · 03-04-2009, 07:58 PM

Unfortunately not... I have a box of 10 electrical tapes. i was looking for it a few days ago and could not find it. There is a Harbor Freight in your area on your way to my house. Go stop by there. You can get a 10 pack for like $5 bucks. I'll keep looking tonight tho.. I know i have like 4 left but could not find the daym box.

Wow... colin drifting huh... Where you downshifting or upshifting? Anyway, it is bad on both cases in the middle of the turn because you looses traction. If you are downshifting in the middle of the turn then you will end up locking your rear wheel and/or ofcourse you looses traction of your tires since you have the clutch pressed in.

honda_bar · 03-04-2009, 08:10 PM

I was upshifting. It's a long sweeping turn that gets tight at the end. I thought I had it, so I begun to shift but soon as I pressed in the clutch, I slid. lesson learned.

Probably won't need the tape, just good to know it's there. I will probably pick up some stuff tonight or tomorrow.

Mark_Dorman · 03-04-2009, 11:08 PM

Hey Davis...I've though about pulling the wing off but would need to see what it looked like under the wing. Plus since my car is not a stock color whoever bought it would have to get whatever wing they bought color matched

...

I have electrical tape Colin

Morgan is getting her black door panels put in tomorrow along with the climate control, glove box, and airbag
