Isnt the S2000 engine the one that 'redlines' at 9000rpm, surely that would make a big difference in acceleration...

Re: What is better, a mark2 or a mark3?
Personally, I prefer the mark 2, However - you won't get an unbiased view here because most mark3 owners - are on www.mr2roc.co.uk - just the way it is... 8-[ p.s. there is a mk3 turbo (mr s) - which passed Euro 3 emissions - (but fails Euro 4 ) :cry: http://www.mr2roc.org/subdreamer/index.php?categ...

will reset/check tomorrow...
Are the sensors easy to remove/fit?
I presume you bought the £30 one first?
Then had to buy the £120?

Re: MMM Car feeling lumpy . . . is this normal?
Hi scotty,
You should try and hold off accelarating for about 10-15mins from cold...
the turbo will only work properly when the oil is nice and warm..

Re: [Mk2 Generic] Buying a MR2 Turbo, Help!
The only problem with signing it yourself, I can see - is if they cross-check the signatures when you come to sell... doubt they do that though?
