Well most of you know that my mr2 is going well it goes Tuesday =( really gonna miss the old girl but time to move on,
So here's the replacement =) it's an 02 is300 in platinum ice I paid 2100 had one owner and is clean an hell inside a few little marks on the outside but I love it it's got 96000 miles I'm going to do the cambelt straight away unless I find it's already done and they've just lost the receipt but it's got full service history I'm going to phone the garages he used to find out if they have a record of it being done fingers crossed if not I've got a mate who said he'll do it for me aswell and a new exhaust system ;-)

turbo it, stick a v160 in and have the fastest is300 in the country. Should only cost you £6-7k Big Grin

Looks good what did u use to get the badges off and to remove the rubbish left behind


Project is300 - Chris0121 - 16-07-2020

I used some tar remover from auto glym it's got a dark blue label on it let it soak in and used my nail to scratch off the glue gently then polished the dirt off
This stuff [Image: 5225fbde-83c1-e487.jpg] just put some on leave it about 5 minutes and it softens the glue


Project is300 - Chris0121 - 16-07-2020

Like the badge! Never been keen on them grills but it's your style not mine.


Project is300 - James S - 17-07-2020

Nice motor, :-) I have the same grill but missing the badge. Need to order one off Toyota.
Defo my fav colour IS. Hope it's kind to you, although it already looks like your going to treat it well!
