91 MR2 Turbo with TRD LSD\ADVAN
I am basically looking to sell my mr2, and just reaching out to any local, or somewhat local guys. I would also consider a trade for an s13 or something. Here is the shpeel:
The car is a 1991 MR2 Turbo. I am the third owner of the car. The 2nd owner was the GM of the dealership where I purchased the vehicle. The car spent the bulk of its life in CA so there is no rust on it. This past winter I was parked at the bottom of the driveway and the girl i live with managed to back into the car. We had it all checked out and there was absolutely no structural damage (trust me, i was very pissed about this happening) THis is the same time I had the holes filled in from the stock spoiler. I was surprised at how nice they got the car to look. The mods done to the car are fairly light. I put TEIN HA coilovers on it, an intake, ARC Blow Off Valve, boost controller (set at 14psi). I just put the 93 transmission with TRD clutch type LSD in the car with Spec Stage 3 flywheel and Fidanza lightweight Flywheel. I also redid the ball joints up front at the end of last summer. I made a custom strut bar up in the front. It's not the greatest, but works really well which surprised me. I also had Josh Boam from Chico Race Works make me a custom 3" center exit exhaust and also gutted the stock Down Pipe. I got a momo steering wheel and made myself a new shift knob for the car that brought up the height a bit. The car does have a short shifter in it. The advans that are on the car are the sa3r's with yokohama es100's on them. 225\45\16 on the back and 205\50\16 up in the front. I also had a 45mm Omori Boost gauge installed in the stock location, but I guess this is where the electrical issues are at. I took the car to a shop to fix a problem I had when I did the tranny swap. My brother had done business with them in the past, so I felt comfortable going there, and since I didnt have time\the space to redo the tranny stuff, I took it to them. They took care of the tranny stuff and I got my car back. I didnt realize until this past monday that they neglected to hook up main grounds going to the engine. I noticed by my gauge cluster starting to smoke, so I unhooked my battery terminal, pulled the car into work space and took a peak around. Here is a list of things that ended up getting toasted: Starter (already replaced) battery (already replaced) Fog lamps (bulbs blew out) Power windows Turbo Timer E-Brake cables (still work, but a little on the rough side) Throttle cable (works fine, but a little bit stiffer than before) Radiator Fan Control unit Power steering GOING TO TRY AND GET WORKING Guage cluster is toasted (was going to pick up a used one from Chico Race works) I believe that is about it as far as that goes. I don't have the time\patience to go through all the electrical to figure it all out exactly where are the issues lie. The body has no major damages. There is a small spot on the rear bumper where the paint is peeling up a little bit from the new paint\bumper when I got hit. I havent had time to take it back to the body shop to have them correct this. There is a small spot where my car got nicked while parked in chicago, small ding. The rims also have a little bit of dings and arent the most perfect looking, but are still way hot nonetheless. I also have the stock rims with tires that I put on no more than 2 or 3 months ago. Also, the front splash guards were removed for lowering purposes. I still have them and the hardware to install them. I also have the FRUNK plastic and a few other pieces I believe for the car in the garage, I'll double check tonight and see what is all there. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at andrewgore @ offthebreak.com or sk8rpunk0000 @ yahoo.com I am looking to get 6500 for this as is. it runs like a champ....I feel it is fair. I have the VIN # if you'd like to check that out. If I forgot anything, let me know and I'll get the information for you. heres a couple pics: http://www.offthebreak.com/~andrewgo.../frontleft.JPG http://www.offthebreak.com/~andrewgo...l/backleft.JPG http://www.offthebreak.com/~andrewgo...sell/front.JPG http://www.offthebreak.com/~andrewgo.../sell/back.JPG http://www.offthebreak.com/~andrewgo...frontright.JPG http://www.offthebreak.com/~andrewgore/MR2/sell/int.JPG andrew |
you said it runs like a champ but thier is a list of things that need to be replaced?
......not trying to be an ass but, that shift knob looks like a dildo....hahah...lol |
The things that need fixing are not affecting how the car runs\performs\handles. I have continued to try and figure out where the final electrical problem lies, and I believe I have found the problem.
and while the shifter may look...different. lol, its much nicer with it being up as high as it is for quick wheel to shifter movement. andrew |
yeah ive seen them with aftermarket knobs and they seem really really low......im glad you didnt take it offensivley it wasnt like that..lol. you drive without a speedo? thats gotta be a ***** dude.
did you post it in for sell also? if not that might help out to? |
I havent driven it much. It was supposed to be sold last weekend, and the plates need to be renewed......so I really only drove it once or twice since this happened. Escort 8500 x50 takes care of me :)
up for anyone that is interested. I will have a new cluster on the way wednesday. andrew |
new pics and a price of 5k or trade for a 240
