It's been baptized in the mud and on the trail that's for sure lol. I have to get the ambition to post up my videos and pics from this last week
 
Do we have everything for the weekend? Beer... Check

Damn, spotted cow....a friend of mine that's from chicago got me hooked on that stuff. Make him stop by WI to bring back to GA everytime he goes home to visit since those goofballs don't sell it in any other state! I kinda feel bad about it but I get over it pretty quick. I'm guessing he wished he never introduced it to me

haha it is really good! And the best part is since we live right near where it is made we can get $4.00 pitchers of it on thursday when I go get wings.
 
Installed my new head unit yesterday. It is an AVH-X5700BHS, and first impressions are that I really like it. I will do a mini writeup here after ai mess with it some.

That radio looks sweet. I just checked and its only $340 on Newegg.com full retail.

Is the mirrorLink working well?

I may pick one up. My Alpine has been doing some weird things lately.

I picked it up off ebay for like $320 new kind of wish I had just spent the extra $20 at newegg so I had the warranty for incidentals... Oh well.

I actually just tried the apprradio with my brothers phone since mine is not compatible (moto x). And it has potential, but from what I have seen so far it wouldn't force me to make the jump by itself. He didn't have any compatible apps installed so it was hard to say. I am gonna mess with it more tonight. The stock app reviews are enough to scare anyone away, but luckily there is a 3rd party app called AR Unchained that looks really good but is like ~$30.

I'll let you know more tonight.
 
Went and test drove this today :D

It was a blast! Fingers crossed that we can get our shit together, this will be a joint venture between my dad and I. It's an original 91' MR2 turbo, very tastefully moded.

Well after literal years of searching I found an MR2 Turbo that was both clean enough and had the documentation to back it up. It is 91' Turbo with 54000 miles, and it is a blast. Here is a list of mods:

-Upgraded Turbo T3/T4 (Not an ssautochrome kit Previous owner payed over $2k to have it installed)
-Aftermarket intercooler
-TiAL Waste gate w\ a screamer pipe (direct vent to atmosphere no muffling)
-Manual boost controller
-Decatted downpipe 3"
-Cylinder head gone though and rebuilt
-ARP Head Studs
-Headgasket
-Polyurethane motor mounts (these suck!)
-sbITs Fuel Cut Defender
-EMS Powered Digital Boost Gauge
-Transmission Fluid Redline MT-90
-Recent Full Synthetic oil change
-EBC Red Stuff Pads
-Front Rotors
-Brand New Sony MEX-N6000BH Head unit (HD radio, Bluetooth. . . The works)
-Replaced Shift boot and knob
-New MB Weapon 17" Wheels (over $1000 new and currently discontinued)
-(17x7 in the front 17x9 in the back no rubbing lock to lock or over bumps)
-Hankook Ventus V12 evo2 Tires on all four corners

And of course :worthless

I am going to keep the 4runner too, but I think my performance mod's are at an end for it. I will fisnish my write up on the AEM FIC, but won't be doing meth or a smaller pulley. I have a racecar now no need for the runner to do double duty anymore :P

Oh man that's awesome! Always wanted one of those!

Its definitely nice to have a fast car when the 4Runner is just feeling too slow.

Me too and I just haven't been able to find one that wasn't beat. This one is definitely nice though lol.

And on top of being fast already it has those little performance goodies on it :)

That's the best part of going back home...cheap, good beer even in the college towns. UW, UWW, and UWP.

Nice score on the mr2, I was torn on something from that vintage or my Speed3

Yup headed down to second street for wings at Brothers shortly :D

Idk the speed is a fun car, but I had always wanted a mr2 so I was pretty determined to get one. Next on the list is an MK4 Supra even if that means I have to rebuild a wrecked one from the ground up.
