Was going to suggest something along the lines of this but yeah a quote and a *high five* will do :)

i was just coming back to say that, but not quite as bluntly. i was going to say it is a good hairdressers car. the only guys i know with mr2's are either gay/bi or love themselves a lot.
Yes the car looks the part for the homosexual crowd.

I'll try to do it up with some crazy carbon fibre bits and massive wing so it becomes a bit more hetero :)

You were implying he was gay!
Cute car.

I've always had a soft spot for these little cars...gay or not...we have to admit they handle alright...how difficult is it to swap the engine for a 2zz from a celica? it would give a hefty power increase wouldn't it? With a 2zz in there it would almost be a lotus elise...lolz...well...almost...congrats...

Not that difficult to shoehorn the 2ZZ in. It's a very popular conversion everywhere but Australia. Even the Techno Pro Spirits time attack MR-S in Japan uses the 2ZZ.

However the car must be converted to manual so you'll need to replace the SMT box.

And yes you're right once the 2ZZ is in you basically have a Japanese Elise!

Nice car bro!

But too slow for my liking

I went from R33 to MR-S for the exact same reason as you...save fuel, looks cool...etc

But after driving it for a few months, I got really really sick of it. too light and unstable at high speeds. Can't store anything for nuts, can't pick more than 1 passenger!!!! and no.1 ...SLOW....

So I sold it and went back to a skyline R34

haha...just my 2 cents

still nice looking though

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
