Discussion and technical advice the SW20 MR2. 3S-GTE, 3S-GE, 3S-FE etc
Anything and everything to do with maintenance, modifications and electrical is in here for the Mk2.
yeah im trying to look for some carbon quad lights or just the carbon covers if not, funky styling do some nice one's,
no its not a custom colour, i wanted a nice classy sort of yellow not a really bright colour and found this, wasn't sure i'd made the right decision when i collected it but when i got it home and started to but the window's and trim on it started to grow on me,
As a fellow veilside man must say really like what you have done. Looks great. Loving the carbon fiber parts as well. Look great against the yellow. Everytime someone sees my car in the flesh they love it, so dont know why there are so many non-likers on here. Each to there own i guess.
cool! well its coming off the road in the next couple of weeks so i can start putting the motor in, gotta plumb in the boot mount and all the other gubbings! guna take my time and try my hardest to get a factory finish, oh and a pair of v8killers wings!thanks for all your honest comments/opinions, i'll take it to as many shows as i can next year so you should at some time see it in the flesh.
Like it mate.
At last someone has fully flushed the kit into the car!!! =D> Hate it when the kit just looks bolted on. Had my custom Veilside fully flushed for afew years now.
Nice engine set up buddy and like the 19"s!!
Good effort.
ahh i was waiting for that question,i have re fabricated the fuel filler neck and put the little black plastic vent behind the passenger rear window on a little hinge and when opened hey presto! i fuel cap! one of my favourite mod's actually, simple but effective,
Did i miss something here? What on earth happened to the car. that rhing was a beaut if i remember right. A real piece of special jap tuning. Did it get smashed or something. Why has it been broken up?
it got broken, Xxxx said that his costomers are making the switch to the mrk3 mr2 so he broke the car up to fund tuning/testing on his mrk3, he had some sweet ideas but the next time i went up he'd had an incident with his mrk3 and a foriegn lorry,

i cant believe he broke the car jsut to make an extra buck. car's like that are impossible to find and to actually get it in the UK makes it a very very special car/ Im just very sentimental about any car being broken but its even worse when its something as rare as that. Gutted that it doesnt exist anymore. was looking forward to the beast rering its head in the future.
Oh well, Im sure youre laughing all the way to the drag strip!
yeah i know, what have you seen or heard about this car since its been over here?acheivments etc.. i've found loads of imformation about it overseas but not alot over here, i'd love to see a vid of it or something if you know of any??im gagging to hear it start up,

Not getting bitchy but thats not the first jap tuner's 'special' that he's broken either if i remember right?
no i admit its not good to strip these sort of cars, much better in there full glory but its happening all the time nowadays, the respect of the original modifiers hard work/graft and money decreases over the owners after
