Newbie- Cornwall

Post by spencersanford »

Hi guys, made a thread a while ago when i got my MR2 but thought I would introduce myself properly.

I am Spencer from Cornwall.

I have been wanting an MR2 for years, and got offered one dirt cheap this year so could not say no.

It's a 1997 2.0 16v GT in black. When i got it, the paint was horrendous, I think the previous owner sprayed a car next to it as it looked as though it was covered in over spray. So I have been sorting it out bit by bit.

It is my second car so will be doing a few choice mods, if you have any suggestions please let me know.

Also, I can't seem to post pics from Photobucket, do I have to have a certain post count?

Cheers, Spencer.

Bought some Rev1 wheels, got them home, then realised they don't fit :( Fail.

Rev1 wheels only fit rev1's. Rev2 onwards, they don't fit due to bigger brakes.

Out of interest, why you putting 14" rev1's on your rev 4?

Because when I bought it, it had some 17's already on it, wanted to get some standard wheels on and get rid of the 17's. I was looking for the Rev 2 onwards 15's but couldn't find any, completely forgot about the brake difference and bought these #-o
