I figured since I have to drive my 85 MR2 to school everyday to keep the miles off the camaro that I would beef it up a little with out fitting into the ricer category. My plans are to swap the engine with a supercharged one that was an option from the 86-89 models. Its a direct swap and will give the car about 200HP in a 2300 pound car.
Now I just have to find a donor car and some money

Why are you trying to keep the miles down on the Camaro? By the way what's going on with getting an A4 SS?

Posted by SS2513 (Member # 545) on :

I try and keep the miles off the camaro because its more of a weekend car and its our nicest car so its like how everyone else uses the winter beater and the SS is the fun car.

About the A4 we are still looking but not really actively. If we see one we like and the price is right we'll get it but if not we'll just keep this one.

Our '88 MR2 is for sale.....$2200.

It's not a supercharged one, though.

ok after doing some more research I've come to the conclusion that the engine and wiring harness and all the little things would add up to be more than what the car is worth.

Now I guess I'll just lower it on some 20 inch rims get a fart pipe and a cold air intake

I've got that covered

I also found out that they sell cold air intakes, fart pipes, and type R stickers and emblems at autozone.
