Back after Japfest! :D Was fantastic to get the car out for a proper drive, even if it wasn't on show. https://i.imgur.com/DcnVLCc.png I installed a custom intake setup before I went, as I needed that intake noise before taking on the drive! :mrgreen: Custom Intake Stuff! I opted for a dry filter, a...

I feel that one. Too easy to collect bits and bobs and do nothing with them. Bought 5 Gauges expecting to throw them all in, when I have no pods to put them in, and there's way more involved in installing them than I anticipated. Have to drill and weld two nuts to the exhaust for EGT & AFR, find...

Appreciate the kind words Yoko! Getting pretty stagnant with the progress at the moment, as I don't want to start anything too serious before Japfest just in case! Have just gotten some 52mm gauges in, but I'm gonna hold off on installing most of them at the moment. Some good stuff coming after japf...

Was being dense and thinking this was a few days after Japfest! #-o Would definitely be up for it! Hadn't heard of Yakushi show before, but look like a great time! Hopefully see you there, Wilkie sr! :mrgreen: https://i.imgur.com/1N1aY3k.png "Don't judge my nut & bolt management. I know exa...

Back Again! :mrgreen: Exhaust Stuff! So I got some O2 Sensor studs from GT4 Play. Went to go install them and I'm fairly sure its a shared fault between the new midpipe and me. Basically there was some weld spatter in one of the threaded holes, and I ended up shearing the new stud. :clap: So welder ...

Exhaust Stuff! New Midpipe! Brand new by BM Catalyst. Welding not perfect, but at least won't leak as much as the one that came off. Have puchased new Lambda sensor gasket & studs / bolts to mount the old sensor on this pipe. https://i.imgur.com/XHRNZ8M.jpeg I have also recieved new OEM Manifol...

Appreciate the motivation as always, Paul! :mrgreen: Severe lack of updates! I've no updates in terms of actual stuff I've been doing as I'm still waiting to get paid at the end of the month. I did however improve the wiper situation, but the middle wiper axle thingy has worn oval, and wiggles way t...

THE CAR IS BACK TOGETHER. MOSTLY. https://i.imgur.com/YaopMBJ.png Note the mesh protection, and the aluminium Mishimoto visible through the grille. No more AC condenser bits falling out everywhere! :D With coolant in the car, drips and drops stopped, I wanted to get it rolling. I had to wait for a ...

That's great to hear! Have a lot to do still to the car before I will be happy showing it! :mrgreen: Definitely looking forward to meeting everyone! https://i.imgur.com/1N1aY3k.png "Don't judge my nut & bolt management. I know exactly where they all go, and they will stay there until they a...

Back at it after christmas! Got some parts in finally, and was able to do some much needed work before the car is back on the road. After I got the sheared coolant plug out, I had ordered some stainless replacements, and some new crush washers. The bolt is an M8 x 10. I also replaced the bolts that ...

Cheers both! Hope you have a great Christmas too! :D Next update should be really soon, I have been going at replacing all the coolant hoses every day, and I've only got two left to do. Feeling good about the current state of things! :mrgreen: https://i.imgur.com/1N1aY3k.png "Don't judge my nut...

Fresh MR2 owner here! Been working hard on freshening up my G-Limited since I got it, and my goal is to get her ready in time for Japfest! :D I would love to see some other MR2 owners, be they AW11's, SW20's, ZZW30's or anything in-between! https://i.imgur.com/Ot8FcCr.png Hoping to see some of you t...

Slowly getting there! A few setbacks, but progress feels steady for the first time since removing the bumper! Water Stuff! I flushed the coolant using distilled water, slowly producing cleaner and cleaner results. My idea was that I could simply dilute the existing coolant with distilled water until...

Honestly Wilkie, I'd dread ever having to fix the AC in mine. It was bad enough just trying to take it apart! All the best of luck to you when you go through with it! Glad you appreciate my posts, I just thought it'd be great to try and keep the forum going! So far, the Mishimoto looks to be a direc...

Been a while! Have been waiting on a new radiator for about a month but have it now, so work is back on! Radiator Stuff! I finally got the old radiator out. I ended up having to cut the old hoses, as I was unable to reach the clips with the shroud still on, and they were degraded anyway. I was unabl...

Paul, you read my mind! Got some sub stuff in the works, as I always need a financial distraction! :mrgreen: I know however, that once I have a sub fitted, I'll want to get all new speakers, which will not be cheap! Luckily with this head unit, I won't need an amp. At least for the volumes I'll be l...

Think I should post an update, as I'm on the verge of getting ahead of myself. No playing around with bulbs in this update, as I'm about to spend a lot of money on a mishimoto! :pray: So naturally I spent money on something else. Radio Stuff The radio I purchased originally never quite worked right,...

Thanks, Wilkie! Trying to get her healthy at the moment, she's not bad but just replacing fluids etc before I start driving! Appreciate the interest and support! :mrgreen: https://i.imgur.com/1N1aY3k.png "Buy an import they said, now my radio is looking for Japan flavoured FM!" "Don't...

Bulb Stuff! Put new bulbs in the ignition ring & cigarette lighter (blocked by FM transmitter) https://i.imgur.com/cE7HmuK.jpeg Really coming together, I'm starting to get hyped with the interior. Feels like it's coming alive again! Only thing left is new radios & Climate control lights. Th...

Seems that most have moved on. Either just from the forum or the car too. It's a huge shame but there are a few sticking around. I've just got a white G-Limited so I'm fresh to the forum. Was quite sad to see I may be a little late to see the forum blossoming. :cry: Those who are still here will kee...
