I was doing a little searching for dealers who supply TRD parts for the MR2 Turbo. I must really suck at "googling", because the only sites I could find were these two...

www.trdusa.com

www.toyota-trd.com

TRDusa'a online catalogue is horrible. They supply no pictures of there products and the descriptions are incomplete. However, it is located in the USA with prices listed in American currency.

The official TRD site supplies not only full descriptions of there products, but photos as well. Unfortunately, they are located in Japan, and there prices are listed in Yen.

Does anyone know of a good online dealer in the US, who not only supplies TRD products for this particular vehicle, but also supplies a detailed description of the product with maybe a photo or two.

what products are you looking for....IMO..trd is crap...most of their products are just rebadged as TRD....the only thing i use from them are the short shift kits...

I was under the impression that TRD manufactures reliable, well made, aftermarket performance parts that are the closest you can get to OEM. Since they only focus on products for Toyota (Lexus & Scion), I assume that their products would be a little more effecient opposed to aftermarket companies that manufacture universal parts.

I'm not an expert, though. In fact, I have very little experience with aftermarket parts.

As of right now, I'm looking at the TRD short shifter. I'm probably not going to buy one right now, because I'm saving up for a suspension upgrade. (I guess I shouldn't look at TRD's stuff.)

Anyways, I was just wanting a good site to browse at for future options. Thanks.

I would buy it while you can, as I've heard TRD is going to stop production on most of the MR2 products they make.
