This is disappointing. Their isn't that much exterior lighting modication for the Mr2. The only one I know of is converting the 91-93 models back lights to a 95 back lights. Here's an idea, I think they should make those Altezza Euro style backlighting for mr2. it's hard to explain it but it looks something similar to this: http://www.altezza-euro-lights.com/images/product-photos/ap-eurotailcomposite.jpg

Hey Kev...

I have a dumb a$$ question... the "ps" next to japanese turbo kits or hp outputs does that stand for HP or what?

Is it a conversion or something?

AFAIK, PS is a German unit of measurement for hp (don't remember the full name cause it's long), but it's commonly used by the Japanese manufacturers. I don't remember the exact conversion rates, but the ratio is almost 1:1 for hp:ps.

Pferd Staarke or roughly something like that, it's the literal translation for horse - power in German.

IMHO, the only lighting mod worth doing is an HID conversion.
