My smooth 2

Post by Mbland »

Well normally i hang out on mr2oc but thought id share some of my pics with you guys...

Well the story so far:

I got my standard RED rev 2 turbo back in august. For first few months i got a few jobs that needed doing sorted before starting any mods and had the car dynoed and it made 222bhp with an airfilter and gutted downpipe. Next up was some new wheels 17x7 front and 17x8 rear wrapped in toyo t1r 205/40/17 and 245/40/17's. Next was the exhaust luckily picked up a rare Hks super dragger exhaust off this very site :D. Then... i decided to do something with the body work like a subtle front splitter etc but then mods kinda got out of hand and one idea led to another and this is result............... :D

WOW love the paint work, nice car.

The wheels in the pics look a bit "Halfords" IMHO, dont mean that in a sh1ty way just my 1st impressions.

Some TE37's in the "dark gold" prob has a real name but... would look uber on your car mate. Kei Racing RSS would be funky or even some old skool Advan 3 spokes \:D/. Agree with Cj82 JAp rims look best on a Jap car.

But sweet car mate

Ummm, bit of a mix up for me. Not keen on the colour but looks nice!
Love the smoothed rear spats but not the deleted side stripes. The kit overall looks superb tho and the general work on the car looks amazing.

On the whole a stunning looking car that isnt exactly to my taste.

But stunning none the less. :thumleft:

Cool :thumleft: each to there own. I dnt think smoothing rear spats etc would work as good without the smoothing out side strips and door handles. Also your first person not to like colour but as said each to there own and all comments welcome :D

Actually i love the smooth rear spats. Looks perfect.


Also great use of black on the cam cover. Makes the top parts really stand out.
Great car mate! :thumleft:
