First mr2!!

[fin]

hi this is my first mr2 ive wanted one for so long and now finally got it...its a 1990 g-limited t-bar import. what does everyone think? ive been looking at the bomex kit which i really like but i havent made up my mind yet.

[Rowland]

Looks nice mate, one question though.
Noticed your power output of 180 bhp, where are you getting your extra 22 bhp over stock from with no modifications?

[fin]

i dunno. the guy i bought it off said its 180bhp cos its a import g-limited he said some of them were 180bhp is that right? maybe hes wrong and its not im just going on what he told me.

[ANT]

rev 1 g-limited is 158bhp standard if i am correct, same as my rev 2 n/a

He was talking rubbish to you i'm afraid.

(still, yours is quicker to 60 than the 173bhp NA, )

Just curious, but why is that?

i heard it was due to lower gearing, but i may be wrong.
but im not wrong about the 0-60 time.

[Mike 'MR2' McHugh]

nice rims !!

[Vindezal]

gears are longer for motorway journeys.... still could do with 6th gear
for 174 bhp versions...

aaa too much to explain again use search..

Looking good bud.. bet your over the moon.. i was when i got mine.. could not stop looking outta the window to see if it was still there!..

[Rhys-]

Looking good fella, looks exactlly (apart from the wheels) like my first MR2 as well. Although mine was a UK GTi spec.
