[Mk2] [Generic] MR2ONLY FEATURE == LOOKING FOR SOMETHING "SPECIAL"

[mark_a_thorpe]

Hey guys, I'm currently on the hurt for a 2 for a feature in mr2only magazine.

Something rather special, cosmetically speaking this time.

I've seen quite a few gorgeous looking non-standard cars on here, but thought I'd ask you guys which one's you think are a bit "special"!

Any links to threads, profiles, pics etc would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Yehhh I saw this one earlier today mentioned on the US boards. It's certainly an interesting little project there!

Is it your car?

Might not be "special enough" but Ive made the following cosmetic mods to my Rev3 jap import...

Aeroware front lip
Toms side skirts
Toms Rear bumper with UK size plate
Rev5 spoiler
Clear corner conversion
De-tobleroned and clear side repeaters
Lexus IS200 wheels and spacers
Colour coded rear grill (by maybe removing that this weekend)
Colour coded headlamp surrounds
Turbo engine lid
"Twin Cam 16V" side decals similar to turbo
Personal plate
Stainless exhaust
Upgraded the interior to Alacantra

HOLY HELL!! That's one heck of a turbo!! Did you rob a truck turbo or something!!

edit: also, what rear bumper is that??

[RyanRs]

Lockys96 i command you to sell me that rear spoiler !!

have you ever thought about changing that dinosaur T88 for a GT4088r or even GT4094r ??? i would imagine you would see a rather big improvement in spool in the 4088 and poss more power just due to it not being 'a dinosaur'! lol -after all the T88 is a 700-850 RWHP intended turbo!

non of the parts are going, apart from oem bonnet, wings, doors, boot.

all for lighter.

turbo will be changed for gt3582r in a couple of months.

well that spoiler certainly isnt lightweight!! Good choice with the gt3582r, will work nicely with that setup. you should see a good 600RWHP on C-16 with that turbo at higher boost! pretty much like every other 2.2 gt35r 3sgte does hence why i am following the trend!

Vote for Lockys to appear in MR2Only

Awesome car!

[Steve-O 2007]

Was that the Pheonix Demo car that was on that ebay that had the front splitter or what ever it was stolen when it was on the ship on its way over here?

I wanted it but Insurance would have been way too much for me with all them mods . Its a Very nice car
