  1. Lovely car what are the side skirts sorry if I missed it
  2. Cheers guys found a set off BBS LM in those fitment but it will require spacers which are definitely not ideal.
  3. Not sure, I'm guessing this sits well inside the arches, enough to lower a nice amount, but it's looks like I'd need a spacer of at least 10mm to look half decent?
  4. Yeah comparison to my 9.5 et 38 rear it goes in 17mm which seems a lot.
  5. Hi guys Could someone help clarify these are ok. 8.5" front et42 18" 245tyres 9.5" rear et 55 18" 275 tyres I have et 38 9.5" fronts which I noticed catch the bolt on the wheel liner on the very odd occasion. Appreciate the help.
  6. If you wait for the right buyer maybe, however there has been a white one for sale less miles but mods, think that went for a bit less then 25? Think it's been relisted lately for 26k. Value who knows but probably around 20k for a fast sale
  7. Sold and should be on its way to the USA. Truly gutted but this is how things go sometimes.

    6speed NA

    Hi guys just wondering if there is any information out there on the 6 speed NA cars, this was a rare upgrade I believe? How rare are these anyone got any numbers? Any info would be great.
  9. Hi I have a gt35 gen one. It made 500 bhp on my MR2 before I swapped it for a g25. I'll check the flange this weekend. What sort of money you looking to pay
  10. Updated some phots Just had a ceramic coating this week and a interior clean

  12. Hi guys Sad times but this is life sometimes https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-MR2-Turbo-Rev-5/123979778499?pageci=b1c7125c-eb76-4930-a1b1-562828b20c57
  13. For sure it would make sence as i doubt many are looking to buy before Christmas.
  14. Still got this. Had a couple of people interested but decided not to sell. However change of plans hence the bump. I'll probably ask land beast to take care of the sale next week if I can get time off when the weather is dry. I noticed the market seems to have dropped a bit which is a shame however that's how things go. MR2 was mapped at SRD which made 570bhp. This will also be listed next week. Probably on the other section.
  15. So what's actually changed from the old days. Great video
  16. Running a lexus is300, I do 8 miles a day. I can also have a bit of fun in the wet.
  17. 325 is quite wide lol. What about your tyre pressures id imagine you need some trye squash to grip rather than spin? Is your boost progressive or just on full at certain revs? Engine is directly over the rear wheels which is a massive help. E153 up rated axles. Gearboxs are really strong no idea on limits but I'm not close, generally the block cracks around the water pump area are the 3sgte limits however there's no real hard and fast rules. Some say later blocks are better as they have better casting materials etc. I don't break traction currently, 245 wide toyos. But then I only put my foot down when the road is straight, pointless applying to much coming out of a corner. I'm hoping to run low 11s in the quarter mile, in comparison to other similar mr2s the car is ready for this maybe even lower with some radials.
  18. Tourque on a MR2 considering they are not heavy works well, I think I could go to 450 wheel tourqe, which would bring the boost in extremely hard. Would really have traction issues then New g25-660 .92. Need some wheels for the supra, don't want to mod it for power haha
  19. Tourque is low for now, 340 wheel, power band is from 4k to 8k. Mapped it out and made the boost progressive and drivabile. Heard a few stories that higher tourqe just makes them un drivable. I guess due to boost being like a button with the modern turbos. Currently 1.85 bar, sure I could go to 2 or 2.1 but honestly it's probably not worth it. Well a 250 bhp MR2 Vs my supra stock jap import, the MR2 pulls in lower speeds not by much, however the tall gears means I gain on then higher speeds, maybe due to not having to change gear or just displacement over comes it at 70+.
  20. Messaged already however, as I need to refurbish those due to colour it might be worth seeing what else is about
  21. Well I had an absolute blast with the supra last weekend. It suprised me how well it did. Also zero issues which is bonus. So I'm part of the MR2 owners club, own a heavily modified MR2 which SRD mapped recently, sadly I only had a months insurance so couldn't take this as it ran out, so out came the supra for the very early morning drive. Weather was perfect, crisp and dry. What got me was how easy this car was to keep up with the others on the tight and twisty roads. Under no illusions the k20 swapped Elise was far more capable in the corners however the auto and tourqe just left him at the corners. I followed a few types of mr2s V6 na, turbos, 2 lotus Elise, and a beautiful Noble. Was one of my 1st early morning runs and to say the least I cant wait for the next, sadly will probably be next year due to the weather. But Ill take the MR2 next time, will be very different in speeds (MR2 is 570bhp), I'm generally interested to see which will be more fun. Any of you guys/girls go out for the early drives, not seen any monthly events other than bluewater, which is a park up and eat.?
  22. Hi Potentially looking for a set of these, don't require tyres, also can be on need of a refurbishment. Money subject to conditions.
  23. My brother lives in japan, maybe I should get him to have a look at mine.
  24. I had to go to a colder grade plug, and gap them to .5mm, I don't no Enough about Supra tuning at higher boost but I would imagine you could be blowing out your spark with .8mm? I'm sure there is plenty on here with the same or higher boost levels that could tell you there set up. What plugs you running?
