Re: Supra 1, MR2 0

Re: Supra 1, MR2 0

you'd hope a 450hp mr2 wud be untouchable to all but the quicker sportsbikes in the real world afterall its unlikely ur gonna look across at the lights and see a timeattack car.

Re: Toyota Dealership

Dealers are hit and miss with the service I've found there'ye usually crap in rochdale and stockport prices are always steep apart from the £1100 quote I got for a rev 5 block in december which I thought was reasonable I found Honda to be twice as good and then some, for my dc2 which is a rarer car ...

Re: sw20 v integra type r

I'd drive one and see what you think.

The dc2 is not about power even though its no sloutch. I dont think standard mk2 mr2 can match the driving experience eg, noise, feel ect...

The dc2 is also designed for the track out of the box whereas the mr2 needs abit doing to it to feel the same imo

Re: declare to insurance indicator swap?

Strictly speaking, any change from when the vehicle left the factory should be declared. No specialist insurer that I know of would charge for this changing to clear indicators. What a great world we live where clear indicator lenses add 100hp and so therefore have to be declared... :? Sarcasm.
