I decided to replace the under tray bolts with stainless steel ones so purchased a pack, some washers, and today got out under there after work and started changing them over.

Re: Jacks' TRD rev5
Your TRD is absolutely awesome, especially on the Futuras.
I can't believe I have only just come across it.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Can you share some more info on your wheel/suspension setup? Are those Futuras 17s or 18s
& what tyre sizes? Are you still on the Eibach springs only? How do you find ground clearance with the kit on and that particular wheel/suspension setup?
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Sorry for the third degree but in that last batch of pictures the car sits JUST RIGHT, often TRDs can look a little high or can make their wheels look tiny, but yours is bob on

Just incase anyone else was wondering about the wheels, they're 17x8 and 17x10 and the tyres are currently 215/40's and 255/40's.

Yes I'm still on the eibach springs, although have been pondering over changing them to lower it a little.

The ground clearance is actually spot on from a functional point of view.

Re: Jacks' TRD rev5
There's been a couple of little updates recently.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
My life took a bit of a change recently and I ended up moving back to Cornwall, good for all the lovely b-roads but bad because it meant travelling to work.
So there was only one thing for it, I employed a daily beater

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Hopefully this means I can spend more time on the mr2, it's certainly been kept alot cleaner recently
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
I updated my headlight bulbs to Osram night breakers, to be honest I was expecting them to come through more white but I'm still fairly happy with them.
I think now I'll change my sidelights back to regular bulbs rather than the white LED bulbs I have in there now.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

I also decided to change my front indicators to the original rev5 clears to match my clear rear lights and clean it up a little, I'm very happy with the result.

I finally managed to fit the exhaust that I've been meaning to fit since July and I also decided to go back to the white center panel.
I really struggle to decide which I like better but I'll keep it white for the moment because I think it kind of gives the car a cleaner look.

still not fully sure though!!

The exhaust isn't exactly to my taste because the tips are a little big in my opinion and my preference would be a tad quieter
(I think this is why I put off fitting it for so long) but it looks alot better than the tiny original tailpipes and is quieter than alot of n/a exhausts too so it'll do for now at least.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
And today I got myself out in the sun to give the car a wash and decided to top up the waxoil and re-gummi pfledge the seals again.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Re: Jacks' TRD rev5
yep, a cheap little peugeot
The choice with the bomex spoiler was to either hack it up and see if it looked any better or sell it for a profit, was a no brainer since i didnt think it looked good to be honest but part of me still wishes I saw it through.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
the peugeot is a means to an end.

certainly no fun to drive!!!!
