suck it
Polish the stockers, or give them a two-tone facelift. Maybe black/red lip or polished lip, or something more eye catching.

Those are actually a chrome option from the dealership, not polished. Polishing takes too much effort for not a huge payoff. Besides, they’re only 16" so you can’t fit larger rotors which I plan on doing when I tackle my brake upgrade.
btw I don’t know why those stockers look so flush on the MR2, they are sunken as shit on Z32’s. I would need a +10-12 offset front and +20ish rear to be flush. I’m not trying to run spacers this time around either.

yeah mr2’s use pretty high offsets
so you’d say those HRE’s are out of your range?

They’re about what I’m going to be looking at for a set of quality wheels I guess. I want to do it right this time so I’m going to be saving up a while.

Yeah, 18’s will fill the wheel wells nicely.
This is the wheel fitment I’m shooting for

So I’m switching up my game plan just a little bit…
I’m going to put off buying legit wheels for a while. I’m going to source 4 TT wheels which are 8.5" vs 7.5" for the NA. Should be able to find a good set for around $200. I want to focus on performance and buying a TT front clip/maintenance/upgrades. Heres a quick list of what I plan to buy off the top of my head.
AMS pulleys/belts
Powersteering rack w/AMS tierods
Rear Main Seal
Z1 2 piece rotors
Brake Master Cylinder brace
SS brake lines
HKS Hi Power exhaust
TT Front Clip
Hoses/Gaskets
120k Kit
555 or 750cc Deutshwerks injectors
FMIC or Upgraded SMIC’s
JWT/Z1 ECU
HKS SSQV BOV’s
MS Manifolds(maybe)
Turbos capable of 500-550whp
Divorced downpipes
My goal with my car is to have a streetable 500ish whp on a 93 pump tune. It shouldn’t be too difficult with what I have planned, seeing as stock T25’s can max out at around 400whp with the right supporting mods.

Yeah stock internals will hold up fine. 500hp is about as far as I’d want to go on stock TT internals but I’ve seen Z’s running close to 600hp with no problems

Update-
Got my steering issue pinpointed. A seal on the powersteering rack is fucked and leaking fluid so when you turn the wheel the fluid isn’t pressurizing like it should. It basically goes from having full powersteering to no power assist when you start driving.
I’m putting off buying the pulleys until next week, going to do my power steering this week. Should I buy a used rack in good condition from Z1 or a rebuilt from Bap-Geon? Are reman’s from bap/napa reliable?
