Re: [Mk2] [Generic] vvti head marriage possible to rev3?
thank's i've heard the 'red top' (single vvti presumably the same as the beam's) will fit the rev 3, i've also been told the black top will fit the red top so i'm guessing the black top will fit the rev3, i think i'll have to get hold of a black top head gasket to compare. lower compression, the onl...

Re: 4x4 mr2
i did think of trying to take some audi encouragement onboard, like maybe put the gearbox up front but its more trouble with the mr2, although i can only imagine the benefits of having that gearbox over the front wheels on a 4wheel mr2
GRIP!

i'm presuming PW@woodsport is the infamous mr. wood's, i did think of this option probably would be easier to remount the engine but i was hoping i could find a t section transfer box then have a shortened shaft to it and from it for the rear and run an offset shaft to the front of the car, to a dif...

4x4 mr2
I'd love a 4wheel drive mr2 and i'm sure toyota did make a working prototype, has anyone got any information on this subject? i'm guessing they used a system similar to the gt4 although i know gt4 shafts are different, the picnic, previa, and various year celica's use the same splined shaft's, but i...

Re: [All] [Turbo] New mod (something a bit different) VIDEO added!
i mean by that is with the air being channeled up towards the vent, b y the kit does it effect the pressure, it should only really be noticable at 70mph and above?

Re: [All] [Turbo] New mod (something a bit different) VIDEO added!
only just saw this and would just like to ask the question, do you find your exhaust pressure is effected at speed with the exhaust mounted like that?

.and as far as weather or not it does anything i don't think TRD would have made it if they didn't think it did something beneficial, they're pretty smart with toyota's.
