OR mr2 owner, soon to be 7 owner

just saying hello from portland, Oregon.
I've been a mr2 owner for quite a few years and have been admiring 7's from a distance. Might be a part of this community in the near future and thought i'd say hello and do my research. Since he built my motor years back in my track mr2 I guess I should give Rob at pineapple a call as well lol...
The car is a completely stock red 93, any info on good reliable mods and whatnot are much appreciated.

Thanks,
Jordan

Nice Mister 2, I really like those cars. I hope you get your FD. They are amazing cars and I think you'll be impressed with the performance. Good luck.

to update this, I got my FD about a week ago and love it so far. got it pretty cheap so it came with a few things I've got to fix and what not but im not complaining. The handling is very stiff and impressive so far, the rear is much more forgiving and easier to control than and mr2 i've driven as expected.
What did suprise me was the acceleration of the stock platform. I just sold an mr2 with an upgraded japanese turbo, intercooler, intake and raised boost and just from the feel of the car and the way the speedo climbs through the mph, this thing stock and auto would have pulled on that mr2 pretty well.
Time to clean the paint up and since I have been hit with the tuning bug again(surprise) ive got a set of apexi intakes and front mount in the garage. more to come as soon as i decide on which way to take the car first. Continuing research
