HI THERE,

my MR2 is also a rev 2 and has bilstein shocks as standard too

i have also had this thought. i looked into (for a different car) once and it was looking to cost around £2000 for the conversion. which is a shame as if you had the money, you could have brilliant fun in the MR2

£95 isnt bad at all to replace a head gasket, that sounds pretty promising

Thanks mate

How much do sniffer tests usually cost? and how do they work exactly?

Thanks Graeme

I'l know to look out for that in the future.

the coolant pipes that have been ordered is an 8 piece Samco silicone hose set. Is this all of the coolant pipes or is there more do you think?

thanks

Steel head gasket? i take it these are better than standard ones, do they last longer?

please excuse me for my lack of knowledge but what is "@ 95 iirc" ?

ok cheers mate, well im pretty sure it has been looked after very well, by its current owner at least.

slighly off topic, please dont hit me, but how much did it cost you to have the head gasket done?

relating to the whole car mainly. In terms of the coolant system, i cant see their being alot else able to go wrong, the heater matrix is new, the thermostat is new, the coolant pipes are new. Nothing left apart from the radiator? I understand its a very broad and difficult question, but im just que...

Hi everyone, As ive said in a few previous articles, im buying a Rev 2 MR2 Turbo. However, in the past few weeks leading up to me getting it, its had a few problems, so im going to ask you guys your opinion. First of all the temperature was not stable after the coolant system was flushed, this was f...

i think that is an aweasome idea and looks great, love that Audi look so a big to you mate!

i may well be after doing a set of these in the future too! just ive only just got my 2 so will be driving it around a lot and wont have time to survive without my sidelights

Patience is a virtue

i ahve a Greddy Power Extreme Twin exit on my 2, what is everyones view on these exhausts?

and i love the shinyness on your new one Steve-O 2007, does anyone know any methods to clean up a stainless exhaust to that standard or is it actually impossible?

around 30-35 cruising but that was when fuel was 90p a litre

Thats pretty good, has given me a bit of confidence in my new turbo purchase, i was told 18mpg maximum!

looks great mate! top work, what polish/wax do you use mate?

yeh, could someone post a link up to pictures/info about this dudes car. sounds great and would love to see it in action some time

That is some great feedback guys, thank you :D in terms of the tyres its running yokohamas, and from what i know, theyre a pretty good road going tyre in terms of boost, no its not standard, i think its running at about 12 or 13 psi, which no doubt i shall feel when accelerating out of a corner, and...

I was just wondering, what can be done to the Turbo Engines to get more horsepower? the MR2 that im getting has 270 bhp with the help of an uprated cooler, Apexi induction kit, decat exhaust system.

What else can be done on a relatively fair budget to bring the power up?

Thanks

i cant belive the grip you get no understeer going through corners and its nice being able to feel the engine behind you it feels liek you being pushed forwards rather than pulled if that makes sense? yeh i can kind of imagine what your saying, as James_Junior said, i think its going to be a whole ...

yeh as soon as i pic her up i shall treat her to a good clean and a mini photo shoot. How long did it take you to adjust to a rear wheel drive car then? because ive heard lots of scary stories about turbos and rear wheel drives, and being inexperienced with these, i was wondering if there are any ti...

Hi guys, been looking around here for a few weeks now as i have been very interested in buying an MR2. And i have now found one and picking it up end of this week. Its a Rev 2 Turbo T-Bar with a Rev 3 facelift Im very excited about getting it, but at the same time slightly apprehensive as all the pr...
