Can we get this stickied?

A very effective mod it seems for very little work.

Re: Interior 'upgrade' topgaiters leather covers

How have I not seen these guys before.

I can do the entire interior for approx £250. Incredible. Scratch anything else, this is the next item on the list!

Re: Speedo needle bouncing

If you're running an electronic sender, could this be the alternator? Are you getting any flashing lights on the dash at all?

I had the same problem before my alternator died, but it was the tacho

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Better air intake temp sensor and positioning.Results page 6.

I'd also like to get in on this. PFC in the car, so would like to give it all the help I can!

I'll throw a couple extra quid your way for postage to Ireland if that's ok?

Stupid question, but better safe than sorry; splicing and joining the 2 wires, doesn't matter which ones goes to which, right?

Re: Love/Hate Relationship with my curvey rear....

The Rev 1 does look cool without sides! Thanks for the Gallery link Martin, really nice having a wide range of pics in the same spot. And ads, DAMN. That is F'ing goregous!! That is really close to what I had in my head. With my car being black, I think it could really work. Thanks a lot for sharing...

Re: Love/Hate Relationship with my curvey rear....

I saw that, but I just wish it was bigger! It's nice, but I think it should be a bit taller and wider.

Big fan of ducktails. Also considering a Bomex or Kei Office as well

Re: Love/Hate Relationship with my curvey rear....

Too add to this, I've been toying with the idea of getting the side pieces from a Rev 1/2 spoiler and attaching them just to box off the sides at least.

Thoughts?

Anyone have any pics of a Rev 1/2 without the main spoiler attached, and just the side pieces?

Love/Hate Relationship with my curvey rear....

So, just removed and sold the spoiler from Rev 5 with the plan to put a cabon spoiler on the rear (don't judge, I like them!). My problem is......the curves! I saw someone mention the 2 looks like a cockroach with no spoiler, and I have to agree. After spending hours looking at pictures, my car at d...

Re: Got myself a Rev 4 MR2 Turbo :) - suggestions to mods helpful

Ideally 10W40 for our cars. Something like Mobil 1 or I am very much a fan of the Motul 300V. Pricey, but worth it.

Re: Front Wheel Arch Wind Deflectors

I've seen a good few modern cars with the same setup.

From what I've read, it's to slow down/re-direct incoming air away from the front of the tyres which can cause vibration at speed

Re: tyres

I had my eye on the newer Hankook K120 Evo2 tyre.

Previous incarnations of the tyre have been very positive, and this seems to be trending the same way. I've always been a fan of Hankook, and the price is definitely appealing.
