tbh... i dont really want to spend that much money on this particular mr2 because:

1) its an outofstate car (not a cali car)
2) rusted everywhere

so far for now buyin a used mr2 or a rolling shell would b the best option

Mark_Dorman · 11-06-2008, 04:11 PM

Hum...there's plenty on the market and they're not as expensive as they were a few months ago. Might be a good time to buy.

honda_bar · 11-06-2008, 04:15 PM

there are a lot of people here in socal that post and never come to this section

I have been sending them messages...

Hey Colin there is a set of 95+ Brakes on the other f/s site. Call me if you need details.

Tin, I'll call you later about looking at your car.

honda_bar · 11-06-2008, 04:26 PM

turbo ones ji?

o6spdracer · 11-06-2008, 04:45 PM

YUP!

Edit: I see you posted already! Good luck!

honda_bar · 11-06-2008, 04:50 PM

Yeah that's a bit high for me... I would take the MC and the front calipers for 400 but thats about it.

o6spdracer · 11-06-2008, 04:53 PM

You have to get the TRD lines too. Shoot him a PM and make him an offer.

honda_bar · 11-06-2008, 05:00 PM

I do?

money is a issue right now and that isn't a priority... I think WE should just trade...

o6spdracer · 11-06-2008, 06:10 PM

SS Brake lines are nice. I changed them out with my rotors/pads/fluid. All together, they made a huge difference in stopping. I like them because they are TRD! What trade are you referring to?

masagsxr · 11-06-2008, 06:22 PM

ur car for his

o6spdracer · 11-06-2008, 06:40 PM

Haha...I was trying to play dumb. His car + $$$ for mine?

masagsxr · 11-06-2008, 07:29 PM

heheheee... Colin, give Ji your car, plus the front end you bought plus maybe a 6 pack

o6spdracer · 11-06-2008, 07:50 PM

huh? What happened to the cash?

Cjung · 11-06-2008, 08:35 PM

LMAO Ji needs his cash mixxer

honda_bar · 11-06-2008, 09:47 PM

I meant brakes

I dragged my car home, I miss driving it a lot more than I thought...I'm pretty conffident that there isn't any frame damage but the alignment is off, thats for sure. Also, I think that the hood is in better condition than I thought and i don't think it should be a prob to fix. i towed it home because the guy was really wanting to bone the insurance company, all he saw are $$$$$$ kinda scary.

Davis · 11-07-2008, 12:54 AM

Sooooooooooooooooooo......................... I ****ing broke the tap in the hole!!!

I got the other side rethreaded, so now it's being held on with 5 bolts at least....

EDIT: Errr why did I say 5 bolts? when it's 1 bolt and 4 nuts.

Cjung · 11-07-2008, 12:56 AM

wow... the fitting of that is worse than mine

hope u get it right

masagsxr · 11-07-2008, 02:39 AM

Huh??? Something happened to your car too davis?

Mark_Dorman · 11-07-2008, 03:02 AM

^He's talking about his TRD strut brace.
