Re: Unstable at speed???

I actually noticed this the other day.. first time i took my tubby over 100mph and it felt really light and didnt exactly fill me with confiedence... Not greatly impressed :cry: Is there any mods that can be done to make it feel more stable at high speed?

Re: How long to register an MR2 with the DVLA?

The import place who got me the car said give them 3 days to register it. Within 3 days they phoned me up with the number plate so i could insure it before i picked it up. I think it's just a matter of getting all the relevent docs and taking them to dvla.. so they can issue a reg num, You should al...

Re: [Mk2 Turbo] Is less 97 ron fuel ok to use on my tubby?

Only had my tubby a few week's but never filled it up with the higher grade fuel's. Always used to run my evo on optimax but prices are just far to high to justify putting the good stuff in.... nearly a pound a litre, Having said that i may just try a tank full again and see if i notice any differen...

Re: Look whats for sale on ebay!('Shock' MR2)

You sure the guy whos selling it on ebay is actually the owner? To me it looks like someone has just ripped a load of photos and stuck them on ebay...... no photos of the car at it's home or elsewhere...... and look at his rating... i wouldnt bid on it even if i liked it.

Fuel and consumables dont bother me... if you want a performance car then you gotta pay the price.. i had an evo b4 thi...

Hi, Could'nt find the right place to say hi so i hope this will do. I'm new to the mr2 but not to jap sports cars. I used to own an EVO 2 rs but due to unforseen circumstances (i.e a truck coming the other way) the ol' girl died. Finally saved up enough to get my hands on a black 1993 mr2 turbo with...
