Hi,

up for sale is my beloved MR2.

I personally had a lot of fun with the car and liked the car, but my recent gains led me to decide that I need a car upgrade.

My car is a coupe (not a T-roof!)

The car currently has about 140 horsepower with stock engine and no-cat exhaust, and produces A LOT of torque for an NA in that cc

To add, obviously, It has 5-speed manual gearbox like all the MR2s with racing enthusiast owners

The first thing I have to say is that through my ownership, the car got A LOT better.




The transmission fluid was changed to MT-90 less than 2000 miles ago

The engine oil was changed to extended performance fully synthetic mobil one 5w-30 also less than 2000 miles ago

The rear brake system ( consisting calipers, rotors, and pads) (similar to oem but with centric street racing pads) were changed new-----3000 miles ago


The brake fluid was changed to dot 4 valvoline----3000 miles ago

the serpentine belt was changed as it was making squealing sound ----400 miles ago

the spark plugs were changed to denso iridium plugs----2000 miles ago

the spark plug wires were changed to denso OEM----2000 miles ago

Car blackbox (records EVERYTHING while your car is running (able to be hooked up to run without the car running with the included external battery)--possibly useful in accidents or fun-driving recording ( the video is recorded in 1080p!)

above was what was done by me and my fellow Illini Auto Club friends
---------------------------

and below was what was done professionally at peter B's automotive at Urbana all about 2000 miles ago




The front brake system was changed into certain extent (rotors and pads)(similar to oem but with centric street racing pads

Inner tie rods (front and rear)-toyota OEM

Outer tie rods( front and rear)-toyota OEM

Front Sway bar end links (bought off from TWOSRUS--WAY better than the original sway bar end links)

Rear Sway bar end links (bought off from TWOSRUS--WAY better than the original sway bar end links)

Front ball joints-toyota OEM

Rear ball joints-toyota OEM

Polyurethane bushings

Subframe was reinforced with professional welding

subwoofer back of the passenger's seat

KYB AGX shocks with lowering springs

---------------------------------------------

here are what the car might need in the near future


-new clutch

-fix the door hinges of the driver's seat(makes tapping noise after opening to a certain extent)

---------------------------
here are what the car needs rightaway

Mini Minor to be co-developed with Toyota

Mon, Jan 26 2015

It was back in 2011 when Mini first showcased the prospect of an even smaller hatchback with the Rocketman concept at the Geneva Motor Show. In the nearly four years since, parent company BMW has hemmed and hawed on the possibility of putting it into production, but the latest word from Europe has it that the project is a go. According to Automobile magazine, Mini is realigning its product portfolio into five pillars: the essential hardtop we've already seen (available in two/three- and four/five-doors), the convertible, the upcoming new Clubman wagon (coming this summer with full-size auxiliary suicide doors on both sides), the next-gen Countryman crossover in 2016 and two new model lines. One will be the production version of the Superleggera roadster concept, earmarked for 2018. The other will be the Minor, a smaller city car reviving a long-gone model name and presaged by the aforementioned Rocketman concept. But for that last one, Mini won't go it alone. To develop the mini Mini, BMW will reportedly turn to its partnership with Toyota. The relationship is already set to yield a new Supra and Z4 and share fuel cell and other technologies. But this would broaden the partnership to include a small hatchback. However rather than use the existing (or next-gen) Aygo, which is already built under joint venture with PSA Peugeot Citroen (with which BMW previously had a joint engine venture), word has it that the BMW and Toyota will develop a new platform for the project – one that will be used by both partners. The new product plan doesn't leave much room for the Mini Coupe and Roadster (which have already been discontinued), for the Paceman three-door crossover (which will suffer the same fate) or for the projected seven-seater minivan. But the addition of the new Superleggera roadster and super-mini Mini aren't likely to leave us wanting for either. Related Video:

Jay Leno goes offroading with the legendary Ivan 'Ironman' Stewart

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

Jay Leno takes a step outside of his cavernous garage for this latest video for a jaunt into the desert to get a little dirty. He meets up with off-road racing legend Ivan 'Ironman' Stewart, who has multiple Baja 500 and 1000 wins in his motorsports career, to play with a Toyota Tundra in the sand.
Unfortunately, Leno doesn't get to interview Stewart too deeply about his long history in racing, but Ironman does talk a little bit about reading the trail while speeding through the desert. In lieu of a great conversation, there is a ton of high-quality footage of the Toyota bounding through the desert.
This clip feels more like a marketing effort than the usual output from Jay Leno's Garage, but it's still great to see Stewart behind the wheel sliding a truck, just like old times. The two of them even take the truck on a somewhat humorous journey at the end of the video.

Toyota investing $200M in Southern manufacturing

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

Over the past two years, Toyota has invested more than $2 billion at its North American production facilities, and it apparently doesn't plan on stopping there. To keep up with recent strong sales, Toyota is investing an additional $200 million at its engine plants in the Southern US to increase production capacity of its V6 engines.
The bulk of this money ($150 million) will go to expand Toyota's engine plant in Huntsville, AL, which is currently responsible for supplying engines - four-cylinder, V6 and V8 - to eight of Toyota's 12 domestically produced vehicles. That includes the best-selling Toyota Camry (shown above).
Toyota didn't say exactly what improvements are being made to the plant, but this follows last year's $80 million investment in the plant that is set to be completed by next year raising the engine capacity to 750,000 annual units including 362,000 V6s. The remaining $50 million will go to the casting plants of Toyota-owned Bodine Aluminum in Missouri and Tennessee, which supply engine blocks and cylinder heads to the Huntsville engine plant as well as others in Kentucky and West Virginia.
