even with a bigger exhaust on it? i'll take pic once i get the new exhaust. and see what you think of it later.

Thats beside the point Davis.. I just don't like it when people make excuses. My point was there is always time to spare. Its long overdue what his problem was wasn't it? Pony up the $$$ to get all the parts needed and spend one day (weekend) do everything. It was probably because the bad control arm/tie rod that contribute to the rotor of warping because you had to constantly fight with the wheel to drive it straight. Yes it is probably not bad but driving it over time could have lead to it. Anywayzzzzzzz

You and me both about the grill Davis..... Anyway, how have you been? You've been MIA for a bit.

datguydeni · 10-21-2009, 01:16 AM

the car drives straight. but i understand the whole chain reaction part. Frankie is helping me source some of it. probably be buying a rotor tomorrow. have it installed on thursday or friday. still unsure of my schedule at this moment.

randomxzero · 10-21-2009, 01:47 AM

Deni have you checked craigslist?
here is a link call them and see if they have the parts you are looking for they are in San Diego idk how far from you but it should be worth it..
Toyota MR2 Parts

datguydeni · 10-21-2009, 01:50 AM

i actually went there on energy way with my uncle. car is stripped... it's sitting on the ground this was about 1 or 2 months ago. 91s and 92s is all i see there.

randomxzero · 10-21-2009, 01:51 AM

you should call often and see if they got any 93?
whats the difference on the control arm and tie rod form the 91 compared to the 93?

honda_bar · 10-21-2009, 01:57 AM

mix, where you headed for 2 weeks? I wanted to come!

Frankie, what res where those pictures taken in? I wouldn't mind putting up a high res pic in my apartment

datguydeni · 10-21-2009, 01:58 AM

91-92

93+

notice the bushings in the 91-92s there's more than one for the tie rod also these are adjustable for caster
the 93 on the other hand goes through only 1 bushing.
93s are not adjustable.

i'm going to check if the parts match for the control arm though...

masagsxr · 10-21-2009, 03:00 AM

Can't.... 3 of my brothers already bailed (personal reason). I'm going because I didn't want to leave my cousin hanging on top of that it is non-refundable air fare. If we move it, we'd each have to pony up another $200 plus pay the difference with they air fare if any. Thats more $$$$ out of everyone's pocket. Anywayzzzzzz it is what it is.... Alright i'm out... see ya'll in 2 weeks.
