My buddy's MR2. Well while we were out tonight I decided to snap a couple pics of Charles' MR2 in the parking lot. All I had for equipment was my shitty mini tripod I laid on the ground with and a 50MM lens. Boo.
I'm using a new host, so bare with me if the pics go down. My usual host is gone for the moment.
For those wondering it's a GT40 turbo (I believe) and a full race manifold. Internals are stock. On 9psi he put down a little over 300RWHP. Even on 9psi the car will ******* get it.
He wanted a few pics of his wheels/tires. That's why there are more than 1.
I just took these with a flash.

Yeah his front bumper is also messed up.
This is why.
Before the CCW's he had Volk TE-37's:
The reason for the cracked up body panels and the reason he now has CCW's:

bah, gotta get some of those locking lug nuts =/
My 12" subs were stolen a while back but i found out who it was (a kid form my school) and i beat the **** out of him, and got my speakers back with intrest
I've always liked those mr2s, mod them enough and they can be a beast....pretty much a high powered go-kart.

Those cars can haul when they've been worked on, I remember 25psi from the Kill section had a pretty quick one.
That's ******* bullshit about those rims. How's your friends temper? I can't even think of what I would have done if I woke up and found the rims off my LT1 gone... the first person that pissed me off that day would have been head butted.

I believe he ran high 7's in the 1/8th with his old set-up.

There's actually another local MR2 putting down 460RWHP on his daily driven tune and 554RWHP on his "race" tune and he's running a smaller turbo than the one pictured above...he's running a GT35.
The best part about the other MR2 is the fact that it looks bone stock on the outside except for a set of bronze 5Zigen FN01R-C wheels.
Now THAT bitch is fast.
