Fresh from the body shop. I got rear ended, 3 months to get it in and back. Missed most of the summer not driving the FiST. Sooo happy it's back!

Is that a R53? What year? We’ve had 2 MCS, an 02’ and a 07’. The 07’ was a massive pile of shat. Constantly breaking, parts were hard to find, and everything was so expensive. But when it was running it was a blast. I almost bought another MCS instead of my FiST, but decided I wanted to try something that might be reliable. Lol.

Its my wife's 2004 R53 her second one. She had a 2003 R53 also. Oddly enough it has less miles on it than my FiST. When they switched to turbo charging reliability went the way of the dodo bird. We'll only get the R53 generation, parts are cheap and easy to work on.

Nice @Mycooking! Everything non-powertrain related also broke on our R53. My son, 14, wants a MCS for his first car. I’m still unsure. I’d like to find a nice used R53 for him since they’re the most mechanically sound. But he might end up getting the FiST and I pick up a GR Corolla. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The previous owners put alot of work into it mechanically. I did replace the valve cover and painted to match, my wife installed the intake and MSD ignition. We did have to chase down a few vacuum leaks and the power steering hose from the reservoir but that's all just cheap stuff. Already came with fully adjustable coil overs , stage 2 clutch, full Borla Exhaust which sounds whicked. In spring it will be time to service the supercharger so we're swapping out to a 15%smaller pulley for the super charger.

I guess I should also contribute to the thread with a pic of my FiST.

Coming up on 7 years of ownership and 60k miles. Gave her a wash today to take advantage of the mild weather.



If you’ve never used Sonax before, buy some. It’s the best wheel cleaner I’ve ever used. The “before” picture doesn’t quite show how filthy the wheels were before cleaning, but trust me they were gross.

^^^Almost looks like the "Vanishing Point" road!

Here is my best 35mm SLR photo I took, developed, and scanned. It came out pretty good, I think.

It might not be as it sits right now. But it's still my favorite picture!

^^^Another rally fan I am guessing, between the Dirt Fish stickers and the Rally Super Store license plate frame (as well as the white wheels)??
