Re: Mr2 Rev 3
Car was crying out for a boost gauge so a Defi gauge and controller was fitted
i had though about wrapping the original boost hoses with clamps or cable ties to stop them expanding under load but I decided against it and ordered some samco hoses
The interior lighting in an Mr2 is more like candles then bulbs, So the next thing ordered was some LED bulbs. Took two seconds to changed and has made a massive improvement over standard.
To go with the blue hoses, A set of new HT leads turned up
I'll get them fitted and take some new photographs this weekend

Re: Mr2 Rev 3
Stupidly i bought and fitted hids!
But seen the light (pun intended!) and bought and fitted osram nightbreakers.
Old vs new
Both fitted
Now to tackle the side lights
Old vs new
Not the greatest of updates. Ive recently fitted a greddy intercooler too so pics to come of that,
On the lookout for some
Recaro speeds or brides but i might treat myself to some status racing seats
