313 BHP Caribbean Blue MR2 T-Bar Tubby
An image featured in MR2 Only Magazine.
I'm regretably now selling me MUCH loved MR2. After plenty of thought and pondering whether to or not I have decided to see if anyone would like to become the new owner of this beastly eye catching car.
I am the 2nd owner of it in this country and have owned it for 4 or 5 years. Driven originally daily then progressed to just weekends (when I started working in London). Then I got the bodywork done now just Shows/Spring/Summer times.
As you will see but the images its a pretty specially looking car with a fresh 2 year old lick of paint all over, images of it rubbed down can be supplied. I decided to go 2 colour to make it a little unique. The Black for the roof is a BMW black mixed with blue specs from the bodywork colour creating a truly ONE OFF look, which looks AMAZING in the sunlight.
My reason for sale is simple, I need to be running something cheaper and less expensive, something less addictive to buy bits for!! I'm looking to buy at some point so I just can't own her anymore.
The details:
Caribbean Blue 1994 GTS Turbo. (L Reg)
Milage: 101,900km or 63,317 miles
2.0L Rev3 Turbo. Non-abs & Electric folding mirrors.
Taxed until End of May
MOT will be 12 months as from beginning of 2009
Oil changed every 3K miles.
POWER: 313.8 BHP flywheel. 285LB Torque @ 1.15 bar with Dyno graph to prove.
A MASSIVE amount of documentation comes with the car about 2 to 3 inches thick of paperwork.
Engine Mods:
Greedy IC + Spal fan
AVCR (set to run 1 bar & 1.15 bar)
APEXi Induction Kit
SSQV Dump Valve
Blitz NUR Spec-R Exhaust (pretty fecking loud and sweet sounding!)
Gearbox: Nearly fully rebuilt about 500 miles ago with new shifter bushes for an extremely tight gear change. Probably the best feeling gearbox in the world!
Clutch: RPS 6 puk installed same time as Gearbox
Fidanza Lightened flywheel
Most recent service I had the following done at Rogue Motorsport:
1) New standard discs all around
2) Carbotech brake pads all around + new brake fluid.
3) New arial mast
4) Short shifter kit installed
5) Gearbox rebuild with some new gears, new gear sleeves and sets + new oil
6) Clutch installed
7) New slave cylinder + new clutch fluid
All work costing £1800.00! Ouch!!
Suspension & Chassis:
TRD Strut braces front and rear
Tein Super Streets with Top mounts
Michelin braided brake hoses
TRD Anti Roll bars (currently unfitted, may install soon)
Wheels - Kei Kruss High Gloss Black 17" alloys + kerb scraped spare in shed with tyre + wheel spacers on rear
Tyres - Falken 452s all round. Loads of tread all round.
Bodywork:
Front - Rev6 Front with black grilling
Sides skirts - TOMS copy + black grilling
Rear - TOMS copy rear
Spoiler - Carbon Fibre Ripspeed
Windows - completely replaced with Blue UK tinted glass to match bodywork
Number plates - custom, I created artwork and had them made.
BMW side repeaters.
All door trim changed.
New T-bar rubbers as well.
All decals etc have been removed.
Work carried out by Gary Chappell of Chappell Coachworks, Kent
Interior:
AVCR roof mounted pod, looks the nuts!!
MOMO Millenium steering wheel
MOMO Knob shiny (cant remember name) classy looking
Seats - Half Alcantara and leather + door cards
Dash - Custom sprayed blue dash plastics same colour as bodywork
Dials - Speedhut dials with blue number illumination + KM to Miles delimiter/converter.
Mats - Brand new mats been in car once with them installed. Black with blue edging very thick and strong cost about 70 quid for pair so very good quality.
Sounds:
Alpine 9850Ri with iPod adapter (negotiable with sale)
Alpine Components
Infinity Rear speakers
2 x 10" MR2 Neil Sub boxes never fitted (with no subs im keeping those for new car)
Alarm:
Clifford 650 CAT 1 Alarm
Bits needing attention:
Clifford alarm needs a service and tweeking by technician
There is a couple of stone chips on front bumper just need sorting.
There is a scratch and dent on the driver under rear quarter window. Lorry cut me up and I was forced into a couple of road cones. S**t myself!
No servicing needs to be done for a while so really drive and go! You really get a genuine top car for your money here. I have spared no expense.
Instantly own a 313 BHP sports car! So no more mods needed for that. Will see of plenty on the road! I have done all the pre high costly mods possible so you won't need to.
Give me a call or PM me with questions or viewing. No time wasters, tyre kickers or silly offers please, I wont rush in selling.
£5000
