Really glad to see you've still got this man. Yours was one of my favourite cars on that Le Mans trip a few years back.
Where abouts are you living? I'm in London these days. On the off chance you're here too we should meet up for a sesh some time!
Best of luck with the tidy up

Just after I sold my beloved first white SW, it was crashed. Major heart ache!

Re: Cam belt failure engine damage?
Well of course it didn't drive with a snapped belt :lol: put another one on at the track, in the pits. didn't have the full belt kit to hand, mate went off and grabbed another belt. Later found the original cause was failing tensioner, lasted the 90 miles home though. The same engine went on for an...

Re: Cam belt failure engine damage?
:) He will be back and you will see the result. They do hit valves believe me, no matter that its written as non interference. Had a belt snap at 7000rpm and drove home from the track day. No damage other than a broken belt. that was a rev2 3sge engine. no valve damage, boroscope when home showed n...

Re: Mk2 2gr supercharged
Saw an anthracite 944 in Crete by pure chance a few days ago, and thought it looked absolutely stunning. Mind you it was surrounded by an islandful of absolute shitboxes.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] What is a good wearing tyre ?
I'm on 275/40/18s and run Michelin Pilot Super Sports. I've had 13k+ out of them and they're still going strong, in a car that's slightly heavier and slightly less powerful than yours, so in a world of free-body physicsfairly comparable. I'd definitely look into Super Sports next time. Best tyre e...

Re: 99 BEAMS REV 5
I'm beginning to think that my best bet would be to find a nice rev 4/5 sonic shadow car as a first step, engine is irrelevant. Then later transplant an altezza black top beams engine into it with standalone engine management, then that is the framework in place to allow tinkering in the form of ei...

The place was overrun with adverts in recent years anyway. IDK WTF they think they will achieve with this move except to instantiate the birth of a new, better, free image host. F'idiots.

Re: Fuel Capacity
Friend of mine's little 125cc ran out recently. Didn't run dry but amber light for a long time, maybe 20 miles. Supposedly a 6.5l tank ( :lol: ) but could only put in 4.7l... I think these fuel reserve lights are a reeeeeally generous quantity left. I ran an MR2 dry once but I can't remember how man...

Re: 99 BEAMS REV 5
I've always wondered about the BEAMS - kind of think it may be more suited to fast road driving than the turbo as you could probably wring the power out of it and spend less time on the brakes :lol: Probably comparable power to weight to a DC2, might be a lot of fun :-k Only problem is they seem to...

Re: 99 BEAMS REV 5
I had a 97/98 in Cosmos Blue. There were only 1000 made from the factory, all for the JDM. Mine had all the bells and whistles, and I advertised it for £4k back in October 2013. In the end I think I took £3500 for it. I felt like that was a really good sale price. I haven't tracked the MR2 market at...
