| STI Driver | This MR2 is mainly used an an autocross car. This car takes quite a beating on the track and is an amazing performer, it puts about 300hp to the wheels right now and is still a work in progress. My goal for this car was to obviously recondition it as best and possible and also to gain this young guys father as a client, who is an avid collector and enthusiast...and a guy who demands perfection. He is the owner of 2 M5's(91' and 01'), NSX, Carrera, 2.5rs Subby,Audi RS6, 1984 Porsche 930 turbo and a soon to be delivered Nissan GTR. Hopefully the job on his sons MR2 will convince him to trust me with the rest of his cars. The entire car was done inside one of his garages, the family was away so I had his entire garage to myslef for a few days, just came and went as I pleased. I wasnt able to move the car so everything was done inside, this rather small space was a bit of a pain to work in. Car had lots of road tar, waterspots, swirls and marring. Some paint chipping and bondo work on the lower half was a little difficult to work around also. Now onto the process...

IWSTI Addict since: Jul 2005 Trader Rating: (2) | Car looks good bro. I have always liked that car. Hey what did you use on the glass? I used to use this detailing paste for waterspots but I cant find it anymore. I need to clean mine bad. |

| STI Driver | After the initial wash I used stoners invisible glass(aerosol version), very simple and streak free window cleaner and then I topped the glass later with Zaino clear seal. This ad is not endorsed by this member. Please register or login to hide this ad. |
