2nd Generation It's Almost Time

Last upgrade tomorrow (exhaust)

I will post the 'after photos' tomorrow too.




Below is the old thread I posted.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey Guys

It only had 65k miles on it when I brought it.
Needs a touch up paint job, detailing, and some accessary such as the [COLOR=green! important][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif][COLOR=green! important][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]fog [/FONT][COLOR=green! important][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]lights[/FONT][/COLOR][/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR].

Already have new parts for it.
Clear light lens, 94 taillights, [COLOR=green! important][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif][COLOR=green! important][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Eibach [/FONT][COLOR=green! important][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]springs[/FONT][/COLOR][/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR] and suspension accessories, fog lights assembly, turbo timer, TRD shift knob and boot.

Things I am installing and kept from the NA:
TRD rear strut bar and Alpine Amp.

Hope to find a [COLOR=green! important][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif][COLOR=green! important][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Greddy[/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR] SP soon.
If not I will have a custom muffler made. (MagnaFlow)

Need rims and tires too. Maybe 17's.

Lots of work to do!

I think I will be done with everything by Mid August.
I will send the 'after' pics.

Yay for the fog lights... looks funky. I'd get some different rims. Those kinda look the ones that were on my green NA.

Hello all

These are the 'AFTER PHOTOs'. (Phase I)

http://www.pralio.com/img/MR2/mr2_front1.jpg

http://www.pralio.com/img/MR2/mr2_front3.jpg

What was done? (not much but made a huge difference)
1. Paint Job (Original color with intra clearcoat)
2. Emblem/Logos painted flat black (something different)
3. Engine Detailed
4. Interior Detailed
5. Stock FogLight recoverey
6. TRD Rear Strut
7. HKS Exhaust (just installed today)
8. Eibach Springs (ProKit), Koni Adjustable was installed already.
9. Taillight Conversion
10. TRD GearShift Knob and new Gear Bag. (no photo)
11. Clear Signal Lights
12. Window weather strip was replaced.
13. New floor mats.

I think that is it for at least 6-9 months.

Next I want to:
1. Get new rims and tires.
2. Turbo Timer.
3. A really nice Windshield Wiper Cowl
4. Maybe different seats, but the leather seats are in excellent condition.
