well after long hard debate and considering all options ive decided i only want one car, and unfortunatly that cannot be a MR2 frown.gif so middle to late this spring i will be looking to sell the car... heres the specs from what i had posted back when i was thinking about selling it previously... however the price is much lower smile.gif

some quick specs:
1991 White Turbo T-tops (5-speed, naturally)
~94,000 miles on the body, body is completely streight, not even a ding or dent on it, completely rust free and been garaged every winter of its life.
~8,000 miles on the rebuilt motor, which was dynamically balanced
all records are available from the motor rebuild (done by previous owner)
leather interior (seats worn but everything else is in incredable shape)

modifications:

Engine
.02" overbore with JE forged pistons

50 trim compressor wheel on CT-26 turbo
K&N intake

Suspension

Other goodies

car has always used Mobile 1 full synthetic motor oil
car has been running excellent as of being garaged for the winter

Maintanence just performed
New OEM spec NGK laser cut spark plugs

11,000 Firm

email me @ k2celica97@aol.com or IM me on AIM @ k2mr2t91

car is located in Clarkston, MI

thanks.


CHANGES TO THE LIST:
this time around: the car has a CT20b turbo installed and runs like a champ, now has a TWOSRUS manual boost controller to regulate boost pressures and a FCD set to 17.5PSI to save from boost spiking. the CT26 previously mentioned will be included but needs a rebuild. also will throw in a Blitz BOV (though the factory BPV that is installed is a better unit in terms of response and performance, this gives you the option of the "really cool BOV sound")

the other change... THE PRICE: price dropped to 9k from previously mentioned 11k... i purchased this car a little over a year ago for 7500 dollars and have invested well over 5k within the past year... so essentially a 12500 investment. in addition to the new turbo, i also installed new accessory belts... other than that everything has been upgrades rather than maintanence.

but yea... car wont really be good to go untill mid-late spring just because it is garaged and i am not quite in the position yet to get my replacement vehicle. so just kinda putting that feeler out there.

later guys!
