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

What I have outside of the car (parts)

two front fenders-toyota oem (painted)
extra bushings, ball joints (leftovers from what I bought)

USB sound system
custom gauges (voltage meter, and air-fuel ratio meter)
subwoofer back of the passenger's seat
KYB AGX shocks with lowering springs
no-catback exhaust system( sounds very good for 4 cylinder)

---------------------------------------------
here are what the car might need in the near future
-new clutch

Hyundai Prius-fighting hybrid spied wearing new camo
Wed, Jul 22 2015Hyundai's engineers certainly don't want the public to see its upcoming dedicated hybrid model in several of these new spy shots, but the company can't deny that the machine is on the way. These test cars were first spotted last summer as Prius-like five-door hatchbacks. However in these photos and the second set, it would seem that the model has morphed into a more sedan-like shape similar to the Chevy Volt. Unlike the last time we saw this car during arctic testing, the vehicle no longer is covered in plastic concealment. That obfuscation has been replaced with a very effective camo pattern on everything but the roof, and in several photos, workers are actively standing in the way of the spy shooters' lenses. Beyond the whole model's general shape, there are a few details to pick out, though. You can easily spot the outline of the brand's hexagonal grille up front. There appears to be a rather complicated air dam design there, too. In profile, the shape of the rear hatch creates an integrated spoiler at the back. While the camouflage makes it very hard to tell, we don't see a plug-in port on this example. According to our spies, this test car was being driven with a slew of other electrified models, including a BMW i3, Nissan Leaf, Volkswagen e-Golf, and Kia Soul EV. Given that group, perhaps the engineers were specifically benchmarking the electric performance for this outing. Earlier reports suggest that Hyundai's latest hybrid could debut in the second half of 2016. Power reportedly comes from a 1.6-liter four-cylinder with hybrid assistance and a lithium-ion battery. Plug-in and five-door hatchback versions are also rumored.
Toyota settles complaints with states Attorneys General for $29 million
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Toyota announced today that it has reached a settlement with the Attorneys General of 29 states and one US territory that will resolve their complaints relating to recalls performed by the automaker from 2005-2010, including those related to sticky accelerators and malfunctioning floor mats that may have contributed to cases of unintended acceleration.
The settlement includes a payout of $29 million to be divided among the states and US territory, as well as a commitment from Toyota "to take steps to make vehicle information more easily accessible to consumers to help them operate their vehicles safely and make more informed choices." The settlement also has Toyota continuing its rapid-response service teams and quality field offices that were put in place shortly after the largest of the recalls from 2010, as well as a "range of customer care amenities for owners of vehicles subject to certain recalls," though the press release below isn't specific about what those amenities might be.
This settlement marks the second major step in the last few months that Toyota has taken to settle legal disputes surrounding the unintended acceleration recalls, the first being a $1.4 billion settlement to address economic loss suffered by owners of current and past Toyota vehicles that may have lost value on account of these recalls.
Heavily updated 2015 Toyota Camry to bow in New York
Thu, 27 Mar 2014Looks like the new, "more emotional" Toyota Camry designer Kevin Hunter talked about back in January is going to arrive very soon, with news that Toyota's bread-and-butter sedan will be getting an update in just a few weeks time at the 2014 New York Auto Show.
"On April 16 at the New York International Auto Show, we will make an important announcement about America's best-selling car, the Toyota Camry," said Curt McAllister, Toyota product news manager, in an emailed statement. Considering the high-profile nature of the NYAS - not to mention the competition that will be shown there - it makes sense that Toyota would choose to unveil something as significant as a major refresh at the Javits Center.
We wish we had more to tell you than this, but unfortunately, that's about all we've got to go on at this time. Of course, we'll have much more for you during the lead up to NYAS, including any leaks of the refreshed Camry. Stay tuned.
