[MrDrabke]

So, i´ll try to post at first one picture, if it works.
Because when not, i don´t feel silly for posting mass of photos for nothing.

Thats how my car looked like when i bought it.
one owner before, original paint, all service done about 110k miles.
No Rust all over. The bottom of the car also original.

WOHOOOOO, it works!!!!
So on.
After i bought this nice and in good condition car, i´ll started working in making it a little better and nicer.
I decided to paint the frontbumper, because of age it wos not looking soooooo great.

Next thing was a Mongoose Stainless Steel exhaust System from england.

New Speakers at front and rear. Not that big bass thing, but better than doing brrrz, brrrrz...
[/URL][/img]

Sportsprings, used, but OK.
Sideturnsignals in white for the front.
[/URL][/img]

Next step, front and rear Black Diamond grooved and drilled breakdiscs with RedStuff EBC pads.

Then, painting some things on the dashboard in car colour.

Also bought some Ronal Turbo´s, which fit perfekt an the MK1.

Puh, and go on. Then, putting the batterie in front because of the engine swap.
[/URL][/img]

And some more little things.
But this is how my car looks now. Pictures from the swap will be posted later.

I just hate you so much now the car looks brilliant

I see you have aluminium pedals (looks like from twosurus.com) are you happy with them?

[IanParkhouse]

Like it. Not sure about the white in the cabin but I want your wheels!

[coanda]

Your MR2 looks gooooooood on those Ronals!

[elbon50]

Very nice looking car Frederic

It seems that you have it in a lovely workshop,which helps to keep it in good condition as well as work in comfort in all weathers

Don't want to seem critical but there are a few things I would do differently

Yes looking good! I like the ronals as well. What are the original wheels? They look good too..

[IanParkhouse]

Who else has been looking for a set of R10s now then...... Just me??

[MrDrabke]

Thanks!

The other rims were ATS Cup, also 7x15...also oldschool looking.

elbon50: no, it´s good to hear other ideas.
just tell me what you mean!!

About 2 years ago i decided to do an engine swap for my aw11.
My choice was the 3sge gen3 from the celica GT with 175HP.

[/URL][/img]

After we have removed the old 4age engine (was in good condition with no oil "eating")
[/URL][/img]

i had to do some work.
other enginemounts for the 3sge
[/URL][/img]

and a seperate oilcooler with thermostat
[/URL][/img]

then we did a revision on the 3sge
[/URL][/img]

and last but not least if painted some parts of the engine and we build a light flywheel from fidanza and the clutch from the beams engine.
also a lsd from the MK2. so currently i-ve got 3 cars in one
[/URL][/img]

[/URL][/img]

so, every seems very original and fits perfekt without doing any cut at the body.
[/URL][/img]

This year i want to do some other nice things.
and yes, I LOVE MY CAR!!! [/img]
