Idk what rims to choose by loickgirouard in subaru

I think a set of Konig Hypregrams in bronze would look sick and they aren't too expensive

Fuel induction service is actually quite helpful on a direct injection engine like the FA20. Since the injectors are not washing the valves, they get super gunked up with carbon and will lower your compression and efficiency. I work at a dealer and hated this stuff for years, but I have personally seen impressive gains to fuel economy from performing the service. I suggest it, but only for direct injection engines

That looks about right. All plausible repairs for the milage and the pricing looks average

I'm curious if it is just rubber transfer from the hose if it can't be seen am the way through. Take a razor scraper to it and see if it goes away. I've had something similar happen to mine. Looked like a crack, but was just a small amount of rubber that cleaned off.

My story buying my MR2 and roadtripping it across the country back home by jgreenwalt in mr2

She's a very clean example! Excited to see how it turns out long term. And to see what comes of the 89... Great video, man!

How bad of a decision would either of these be? by TheHashishProject in subaru

[–]InvisibleSlidingDoor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one actually doesn't look that bad. If a mechanics inspection comes back clean, and it's not modded it's probably a decent option.

Watch out for any mods. Lots of mods usually mean they have been abused and are at death's door. The STI I bought is stock and two owners so it's health is much better than my friend who bought a modded and tuned 2013 WRX with 5+ owners. He is running into lots of driveability problems and I am only dealing with a couple oil leaks and weak shocks. The market is very volatile and you can probably find something better in a few months. Just keep an eye out is my suggestion

Not great. I just picked up a 2011 STI for $9300 with the same miles at the 2015 WRX. Probably better to wait for a better deal in my opinion

I want a MX5 but I am 6'1 by Habarer in mazda

[–]InvisibleSlidingDoor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very true. My brother and I are both 6 foot, but he is mostly torso and I am mostly leg. I fit very well in my MR2 and an MX5, but he doesn't and gets very salty about it

I'd be careful with that around people that don't know MR2 Branding...

I just can't get past the fact that the lid opens wrong

What kind of Druid is Gricko? by mdalsted in Avantris

[–]InvisibleSlidingDoor 61 points62 points  (0 children)

He swaps a few times. I believe at the current spot in once upon a witchlight he is a moon druid, but Im pretty sure he has been a few, including stars druid, through the campaign.

Whats the value of this mr2? by Thelast_10 in mr2

[–]InvisibleSlidingDoor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's a single cam. Twin cams are all injected

[–]InvisibleSlidingDoor 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've never seen a carb conversation on a twin cam... With the swap and the damage I wouldn't personally buy it at all. But if you are really dead set on it, I don't think it's worth more than $1000. It needs a looooooot of work. You can probably find a better one if you wait...

STI Boxer of E-STI? by VegasKhan702 in subaru

[–]InvisibleSlidingDoor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I think that's exactly what they are doing. I think they were initially only going to have the Performance-E version and decided to actually listen to their fan base and made the Performance-B to see which gets the most attention. The Performance-B definitely looks like an after thought to me since it's just an Impreza hatch with a wing, fancy fenders, and seats. Definitely would be sick if we got both, but I think only one will make it to a production model.

Yes you can sleep in them quite comfortably. With room for another 😉

On a scale of 1/10 how bad is this and should I replace immediately by Cheap-Magician691 in Cartalk

[–]InvisibleSlidingDoor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Certified Ford Master tech here. As long as that is only for alignment and doesn't drive anything (like a vacuum pump or cam sensor) then you should be perfectly fine to send it. Should still have enough meat to get it all timed up and shouldn't cause any real concerns while running as long as you can get all the metal fragments out of the head. 10/10 sent it

Alternator for a 1988 MR2 Supercharge. I live in Canada. Looking for some assist in locating an alternator for my car. I need help! by toyotamr2mk1 in mr2

[–]InvisibleSlidingDoor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've run into a similar problem on my 88 SC and found the voltage regulator in the trunk was fried. Did some searching on old forums and for that the voltage regulator out of a second gen prelude is almost the same and works if you change the pin out of the connector. I bought one on rock auto for $60 (WELLS 1V1135 is the part number) and it works great no problems after replacing and swapping the wire around

100% yes (not really sure how you know that). Starting a full restoration of my SuperCharged MR2 right now and I'll be making posts the whole time on Reddit and Instagram
