Re: Mk2 front struts....

Rev 1 has different front Castor arms. Whether these effect the strut casing I.e you need different strut for rev 1 vs 2 I don't know.

Re: Rare exhaust?? What have you got?

How do you define the best exhaust? Forget the dep pro it has much uneccessary weight. A single exit straight exhaust like my hayabusa must flow better than an exhaust that curles the full width of the car to come out on the passenger side?

Re: Taking delivery of a Haslbeck Mr2

I like the haselberg kit. One question though, do the three quarter vents on the sides actually vent into the engine bay?

Re: You know you drive an MR2 when....

When you turn the music up a notch to disguise the odd rattle and shake. When you drive around doing strange manouvers in car parks to make certain noises happen so you can pin down where its coming from. Asking every single passenger that gets in the car to do the same. Great thread :) I drove to ...
