[AllGoNoShow]

Folliwng site of the MR2 posts, how much work did you guys actually get done to your car this winter that you wanted too?

Post up some details and pics if you got them :) Hope to see you guys all out at the meets this year!


I'll start off...

Performance:
Jim Conforti ECU Chip
Custom Intake (Ordered pieces, ETA 03/29/06)

Suspension/Shoes:
H&R Sport Lowering Springs (Waiting to be installed)
KVR Performance Brakes - Front Slotted (Waiting to be installed)

Exterior:
Debaged 735iL

Interior/Electronics:
2 5-1/4" Alpine Type R Front speakers
2 5-1/4" Alpine Type R Rear speakers
PolkAudio db212-2 Subwoofer/Enclosure



Picked up VHT Tintspray, will be doing tails and corners this week sometime. Also ordering Rear Slotted brakes and pads as well as full front suspension within the next 2-3 weeks, have a monoblock amp I can use as well just need a deck. Lots of work still to be done to mine, more spring mods now then winter :)

[theken]

i did nothing, i planned on few thing sbut did alot less then that

[BigBadVlad]

hmmm not so much for me... did the waterpump and timing belt myself sometime late last fall or so... (found out my motor is from an 87i instead of an 88i because the 87i waterpump had an extra nozzle on it).
Mounted replacement bosch driving lights as the original lenses are cracked and pitted badly.
I'll be doing the rear shock tower mounts hopefully this coming weekend, as a week or so ago I think they broke. Rear seems to sag a little and getting some odd handling out of the rear on accelaration out of corners and on downshifting into second.

[Boosted_TL]

Had big plans for the RX7, but big changes and will now sport a G35 Coupe or a 350Z whenever comes availabe first with a 6spd.

[Ekliptix]

I can't remember what my plans were.

[Goblin]

Yeah James, I have done quite a few ;)

Hopefully be ready by this upcoming meet :)

[NickGT]

Well I wanted to buy chrome FR500 Wheels for my 2002 GT Convertible but...

I ended up trading it in for a fully loaded 2005 Mustang GT coupe. :rofl:

My winter plans are rolling right along, but I don't think I will finish what I want until summer.

[nadroj23]

well didnt really have plans but my path has changed, i just picked up a 02 rsx prem a couple weeks ago, just got Tien Stech lowering springs, and picking up 17 or 18' rims next week, springs goin on this friday. future plans, hopefully projectors and hid, and then tint. maybe stereo but i think i might be getting a little to old for that stuff maybe just a 10' or something would be good

[2m0a0x2]

Mine got done.......lower more...lip....cold start DDE.....wheels....:D

Yep, both of them. Spoon EK is all red. The B18C EK has a CF hood and the lips and mouldings are still black.

it goes ok :D I've had it back for a little over a month and a half now and I still haven't had time to get around to tuning it, and it's got an oil leak back by the starter somewhere that's pissing me off, next day off I have to pull all the crap over there apart and try to find that...

right now I'm just running off the wastegate for boost, so like 15 psi, the other day I was replacing a coupler that I'd blown apart on the intercooler piping and I knocked the vac line off the wastegate, so I was hitting around 24-25psi...it was really quick then :P
