Not on the next list to buy unless I get a really kick @$$ deal... Don't know if you guys remember Ji posted one going for free. I kept in touch with the guy its just I don't have room in the garage. The guy that was giving it away was really cool and really a stand up guy. He even called me to say how much the junk yard gave him for it. Total weight 660lbs and they gave him $17 and some change for it. This is for the whole engine, tranny, ecu, axles etc.....

.... Oh well...

Yeah i know u got 3 already... just thought I pass that one along since the car looks clean and very good price.... Or, why not just keep the red for Angie and continue on the project. You/she would end up spending about the same trying to start with that black one.

Thanks Mixer...I appreciate your being on the look out for me

I think I wanna start my own project, if that makes any sense. But we'll see...might depend on whether we find a good buyer for the red one or not

masagsxr · 05-12-2009, 02:29 AM

np..... the red one is barely on the works tho isn't it? Not much done to it and still plenty to go from making it your own

..... I do understand what you mean. Imagine if you guys get the black one you guys would have just about all the mr2 standard colors out there

IS_Angel · 05-12-2009, 02:48 AM

Haha...yeah...that'd be ridiculous if I got the black one! Then we'd have 3 na's and a half parted out turbo: Red, white, black...and the turbo used to be Aquamarine Pearl

But obviously if I got the black one we'd sell the red one. I suppose there still is a lot I could do to make the red one "my own". Time will tell what I end up doing...

o6spdracer · 05-12-2009, 04:41 AM

I have a black one...I know the Dormans want it. hahaha

Mixxer I saw you previous post. I still have my 2. You can have your cake and eat it too! Come on...you know you want to. hahaha. I saw a really clean SC the other day. Black and sexy!

masagsxr · 05-12-2009, 11:09 AM

The problem is, no room to park in the driveway.

Davis · 05-12-2009, 11:14 AM

Buy mines! It's black and red!!

The good thing about the red one is the 94 spoiler (I still want!) and the fact we did the clutch! I don't think you want to go through that Angie.

I am having that phase like you tho when sometimes I wanna sell the 2 and go luxary like Ji over there hehehehe

I think u have more than enough for the clutch. It does not use that much. The only thing with that is, there is no way for the bleeder kit to fit on that tight spot unless I can come up with another adapter. I already have one in mind I'm just lazy to make it hahahahaa..

mmm its only 30$ for alignment here xD but thats for just the front. supposedly small cars rarely need an alignment in the back.

i had a dream my turquoise mr2 had a black tom scoop. and i was just driving around maybe i was part of a movie or something... since it was 3rd perspective and the saw the car from the outside. o.0
so how has everyone been?

Davis · 05-12-2009, 11:30 AM

If you guys haven't seen it in offtopic yet!

I love Cars!

datguydeni · 05-12-2009, 11:52 AM

LOL that was entertaining. story is keep your car stock ^_^
i want to have an empty road space so i can mess around on. NO trees or Poles would be nice

Well front and rear suspension has changed so yes i want all 4 done. I know there isn't much to adjust at the back but for piece of mind, I'd like to know that its been adjusted somehow.

Davis · 05-12-2009, 01:21 PM

I know what you mean Mixxer! Any uneven tire wear yet? Maybe you don't need an alignment and your magical hands placed everything at the right angle/degree.

My closet is getting full from my old and new parts.

So next on the list is:

- 2 liters of ATE super blue
- 3 quarts of Redline MT90
- New front OEM pads, even though my pads are like at 7mm.

I just want everything to be new!!

datguydeni · 05-12-2009, 02:17 PM

i'll take your front pads davis ^_^

Yeah, shows some uneven wear on the front.. On the rear not really.

Davis · 05-12-2009, 04:34 PM

Ahh that sucks! I remember when I lowered mines, it drove straight and didn't even have any uneven tire wear haha, I was lucky!

So after spending hours doing math homework I got bored and decided to make a sticker of my future shop (probably won't happen

)

What can I say, I love to dream.

It's not gonna happen if you think like that. Nothing happens unless you're determined to make it happen. It'd be worth it in the long run. If not you can come work at my shop

. You'll be our mid-engine specialist

honda_bar · 05-12-2009, 09:08 PM

I wanted a shop after F&F

Davis, thanks for the support!

Davis · 05-12-2009, 10:28 PM

So who wants some of these stickers?

Don't worry having a shop is not on my mind right now, it's getting the experience that I need first and thennnn I'll start thinking about that!

And yes the stickers are going to be green/white since that's going to be the shop color!

No problem Colin!

Mark_Dorman · 05-12-2009, 10:37 PM

That's the confidence you need Davis...the shop will have stickers and the shop's colors will be green and white
