^NXT is great for consumer use. Very easy to use and apply, but breaks down too easily. Especially when it rains. Makes a great top coat though! haha

1991 mr2 sway bars

Sounds like a great deal to me... too bad I think I would need stiffer sways

xltinlx · 02-03-2010, 11:31 PM

tempting.. should iiiii?

Cjung · 02-04-2010, 12:07 PM

I really want to buy it... but I dont have spare money.

masagsxr · 02-04-2010, 01:01 PM

LoL Christian... You know you got your $$$ hidden under the bed hehehehee

reaxion07 · 02-04-2010, 01:30 PM

Wow, if that's $175 for both a front and rear sway, that's a really good deal. My rear cost $150 new (got it as a gift), and I bought my front bar for $150 used. Cjung, what are you going to use the car for? I've read that the TRD is perfect for daily driving/occasional track duty. I've had the rear on my car for years, it was perfect when I was N/A.

Cjung · 02-04-2010, 08:28 PM

Yea, I know they are a deal. but I am not sure. I just want to make my car a driver's car. Not sure how else I could explain it. Since my car is lowered rit now, I definitly need a stiffer sway than stock. But later on when I take my engr classes, I want to design RCAs for my car. Which then I wont need super stiff sways. The thing is that is not till next year or so, and I am not even sure if I could use the machinery for personal reasons.

Either way, I cannot get sways because I have given alot of my funds to my parents (needed money badly).

O yea Jeremie if you need a hand on your car let us know. I would not mind learning about the 3s. I like Wrenching for experience

casper721 · 02-04-2010, 08:31 PM

Jeremie, i sent you a PM

casper721 · 02-04-2010, 08:37 PM

guys, do you know the phone# for madpsi?? or who they are on these boards?

all the links on their website goes to emails ... which i emailed both possible addresses, and still no response.

Mark_Dorman · 02-05-2010, 02:12 PM

^MadPSI is on MR2OC. It might take some searching to find them though.

o6spdracer · 02-05-2010, 02:32 PM

I tried to do a quick search for their number for you Darin, but nothing...what are you planning to get from them?

casper721 · 02-05-2010, 04:20 PM

i was looking to ask them about their wb fenders and the areo roof. but they're hard to find, and there's no contact info other than the ordering and retail emails, which i've tried already and no response still. i got on their facebook, and contacted the sales email they posted on there too.

i dont think the wb stuff is available yet, according to fb ... they're taking orders next week i think. woo hoo!! i just hope someone gets back to me soon ... i swear i'll make the trip to San Jose just to hunt them down, hahahah

then i was thinking, since mark/jesse is selling replica parts for the trd wb look, i might as well just get those since it's readily available. we'll see ... i wanna be different! but the trd look is what i've always wanted!! ugh, i'm so torn! =P

and yes, i did track an authentic one down ... but it's $5k

i've decided ... carlo and i are going to "start" working on my mr2 after vday hooplah. the tsx is now finally done, and the mr2 parts are just stacking up lol ... time to get grimey!

casper721 · 02-05-2010, 04:34 PM

guys, and girls ... THIS SATURDAY (Feb 6th) is my club/lounge event at Burgundy House in LA (off of Santa Monica and El Centro).

Old school hip-hop ... Remedy to rotation radio!!

I'll be cashiering, so just mention the mr2 boards and i'll let you in for FREE!

Hey, Mark suggested that I check out the chat…So what’s rockin So-Cal?
Mark I think it was early 09 I saw you guys out on the road pulled over by Zuma beach headed north. If I remember correctly there was also someone in a new Lotus. If it was 08 my mind is really slippin and it’s been a longer while than I thought!

I’m interested in finding a shop out my way with a seasoned wrench or two that knows the AW11. Any recommendations from the group? Who do you guys see when you’re not up to it yourself? Thanks, I’m in Thousand Oaks.
