Look mint :)

Not sure about the plank of wood holding the boot lid though :-k

Where's the engine from, a Celica?

Love the colour!

And that bit of wood is all class. I had a bit just like it holding my drivers window up when the regulator broke =D>

Like the clear indicators they go great with the colour. The engine is very clean but looks different to mine which is a K reg (same rev?) Could be that my engine bay needs a good clean!! Nice motor though :D

Yours (being a rev2) will have the earlier revision engine, they look quite a bit different on the top.
The one pictured above isn't from an MR2 though, Celica or Carina most probably. Thinking about it, probably only a Celica as I think the 2 litre Carina had a 3S-FE.

Thanks for the comments guys

I think the engine is out of a rev 3 MR2, the performance is not too bad with that filter one however I am going to try a K&N on it to see how that goes.

As for the wood.....might keep that :lol:
