There are Toyota alternatives (as well as non-Toyota alternatives) to the rare JDM MR2 cupholders while still maintaining the OEM look. It might take a bit of creativity to get it to fit the bracket or to make a bracket, but you can make it look OEM.

Seth W · 08-12-2008, 01:42 AM

I think toyota took their idea from the germans when designing our cars

SE-RMR2 · 08-12-2008, 02:52 PM

yea, well anyways i will be down tonight w/ my car and hopefully i can get my mounts fixed so we can dyno this weekend...

So would you guys like to go to PIR after we dyno??? Also does anyone of you have a pair of 15" rims to mount my drag radials??? Since i sold my 17's to James.. then i have nothing to mount my drags on...

Well i really just needed them to mount for drag radials... but what kinda are they???

cjrxthree · 08-12-2008, 07:45 PM

So I've seen a couple wheels/rims on craigslist that seem pretty good deal/cheap. So I've posted a couple misc. things for sale of my own, and had a couple emails. One being $350 for my original set of pokemon cards :P.
So if the deal goes through I'll have around 400-450 tops to spend.

I found these:
17" rims and tires
Which I think look pretty good, I think they'll fit? 5 lug right?
I don't know anything when it comes to this..so, tips, hints, anything helps.

Also, I found this which will all around cost more, but i see named brand, and I like the look of these as well..
18 inch enkie alluminum alloy rims and tires

Any one recommend 1 or the other, will they both fit?
I also don't know how long the postings will be up, but just trying to figure out..what to look for and whats good and what is..meh.

Ahh, good job on flying though, that's a LONGG LONGG drive. 14+ hours

.

But ouch @ that delay!

Gairloch · 08-12-2008, 08:34 PM

Correct, 5 lug. You also need to find out the offset and the bolt pattern though. You need the bolt pattern to be 5x114.5 and I can't remember the required offset off the top of my head right now. It should be in the wheel forum though.

Judgeman · 08-12-2008, 08:49 PM

there is an autocross at PIR this sunday, is anyone els going to come?
