Mine's got a removeable cover over the middle. You can use it with or without - without it would look a bit like the one featured earlier in this thread, except the metal meets the leather at 90 degrees, not slash cut like that one. And it says TOMs on both the leather on the centre spoke and on the removeable cover as well.

Edit: It's smaller than that one as well, by the looks of things.

I think I know which one you have. Has it got a TOM'S logo on one side of the cover, like either on the left or right hand spoke, and yeah its quite small as well.

Not quite - the centre cover has a weird TOMs logo with like a wheel and stuff embossed in the middle bit you'd press for the horn, and then the centre spoke has a different TOMs logo on it in red.

JDM anniversary I think, the UK ones had wooden steering wheels (also by momo). I've seen a steering wheel like that in a MK1 before though :-k

Well, it's not the 10th anniversary one anyway:

Wouldn't surprise me if it's off a different Toyota altogether. It looks too triangular to be MK2 MR2 age IMO.

Depends what you class as rare.

My engine's not particularly rare but certainly not common in an SW20 form...

...tis rare to see one modified and running aftermarket ECU though.

My diffuser is pretty deep and has the vanes to create the venturi effect but I've no idea if it works or not. It wasn't exactly designed in a wind tunnel so no way of knowing but I think it definitely has some aesthetic value if nothing else 8)

On my Rev 2 GTS Turbo I have:

- Factory optional Momo steering wheel
- Factory optional LSD
- Factory optional Steering Fog Lights
- 5Zigen single exit border 304 exhaust
- GReddy SMIC
- GAB Sports rear strut brace

Not sure how "rare" they are, but they are nice well built parts either way, and you dont see them come up for sale all that often.

errr, the shell and windscreen are original parts, tho the shell has been chopped up quite a lot.
some of the old wire loom is original but again chopped up a lot.

the gearshift mount is standard, not the stick or cables though.
dashboard, you guessed it, it's chopped up.
fuel tank
long rad pipes
wipers and motor but not links, all moved.
rear lights

think that's it for standard parts on my car.

suspension, front and rear subframes, hubs, undertray, bumpers, rad, bonnet, bootlid, rear wing, engine cover and bucket seat are all custom.

mazda engine, audi gearbox and apexi ecu. none of them are rare but in combo' they are a one off i believe.

so far i've just chopped up the loom and shell and just starting to build the suspension and subframes ready for the engine. shoud be MOT'd in about 10 weeks.

Oh yeah - I have a Phoenix's Power SMIC which is fairly rare, a JDM boot mat, GAB Revo Stroke coilovers (now dead though) and a Toms under body brace.

Add a spank load of other bits to that and it isn't a bad transformation from a stock UK car in 2002.
