Really like this

Theres a girl at my work with a bone stock red one (94 I think), she said shes seen yours somewhere. They are either doing a 2grfe swap or a 4G 3sgte. ive been voting 3s just for the sake of simplicity.

I only know one girl that has one so it's probably the same person. 2GR is too much $$$. For the cost of BUYING the 2GR a Gen4 3S can be swapped in with more power potential.

Makes sense, can't argue with a good deal. What size would you be running if you went to the 17x9 and 10? Do those cars have plenty of space in the back for tires? I've been impressed with that on my Z. I'm running 275s on 17x9s with plenty of space. People have run 315s on 17x10.5s without much of any poke.

I'll probably run a 235 40 up front and a 255 40 out back. It gets to be a bit tight up front with the 235 combo though from what I've been reading. We'll see.

ill have to agree and disagree to some of the comments above

Car looks great. keep the ugly ass lugnuts it give it a better wtf?!? factor than the exhaust that almost looks like its about to fall out from under the car. The rear really could use a lot more meat if you keep that stance; no need to stretch if you have space for days!

Overall super clean and well done!

Could stand to be 2 inches lower, and personally really like the accent from the lugs. Very cool car. Not a fan of MR2 but this one is great.

A 235 gives a very very mild stretch on a 9" rim. I would expect a 255 would as well on a 10. Personally, I think it would look better with a 235 on an 8 and a 255 on a 9.

I just want to have a concave face on both wheels. Meh, that's not for a while though.
