My MK1 MR2 Blue project Car

[SJ80]

Hi

I am SJ, this is my first MR2 and a project car for me, am firsty addressing the few issues it has (Anyone have a radiator or some front splitters going?) and then working on the cosmetics. I hope to also race it in the Toyota Sprint Series soon so will also be looking at upgrading a few things. Am new to bangernomics so apologies already if I asked something dense

Anyway here is a few pics from the day I picked her up.







Also plan to frequent the likes of JAE and other japs shows etc so hope to get to meet you all

Thanks for looking, any comments, suggestions etc most welcome

Welcome along SJ, the car looks good, although watch what you say about bangers

I may have a spare rad in my shed, I'll have a look, the items wanted section is a good place to start looking though..

[SJ80]

Sorry in no way meant the AW11 was a banger, I just meant using a spanner etc, its a bit foriegn to me, last car was brand new (and I have an excuse of being a girl )

And yeah have put an ad there thanks but if you have one, let me know how much

Cheers

No probs! You'll find the wanted section useful for a lot of bits you may need, including after market performance parts etc

Pop your location up on your profile, it will help for any local mk1 members who may offer advice parts etc..

Good luck getting her ready for the sprint series

Welcome along!

I currently have a mk1 in the sprint series (have a look in my garage)

I prefer to use the word Nails rather than bangers!

cheers

bu88er missed that, barkstons just near me, wasnt that the reverse one though? I cant imagine the 2 doing that well in reverse


And will update on my car, it went in for MOT this week and failed badly on brakes, £600.00 later its apparently all fixed yet didnt start this morning due the battery being drained RARRR

Having a play this weekend though and hopefulyl get an end to all these niggles and have my first mods to fit which include some funky retro knobs fors the dash pics to follow.

Finally got to my first cosmetic mod hopefully on a roll now

anyway nothing major but I do love my new switches for the lights and wipers, nice clashy metalic orange





appreciate they wont be to everyones taste but I like.

Nice looking car, that MR2 looks far from a banger.

It measn the circuit is reversed, the car still goes forward
