Re: Really dissapointed with my 1/4 :o(

pop a chargecooler or uprated IC on there and have another go. I did a load of runs last summer in mine with a 205 cc fitted and was hitting anything from 14s right down to 13.2s. the key to a good time is all down to the launch mate jsut practice it! took me a good 4 runs beforei started posting re...

Re: Ferrari replicas? WHY?

because some there are 3 groups of people.

Those that love MR2s

Those that think its the best car ever, better and quicker than everyone else

and those that like to think its a baby Ferrari and take it too far.... :lol:

Re: My '93 GTS Turbo

T-Cut, there's your problem. Might as well sand paper your paint.

Get over onto detailingworld and ask them to recomend some stuff to bring the car up like a mirror.

Far better products out there than n00b-cut and meguires.

easier to work as well. :thumleft:

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Mr2 Scoops

agree with Peter here,

1, they look naff.

2, unless its a genuine TOMS one with the airbox to match, they do naff all.

3, people will always insist they are right to justify their purchase.

There is a reason MR2s didnt roll out of the factory with these fitted.... :thumleft:

god bless ebay... i bet that leaks like crazy lol. simple answer if you want the best possible performance stick with stock. If you want to make your car overfuel, be jerky and sluggish just for a little noise to show everyone your "packing boost" then fit that pile of crap. Now the HKS SS...

Re: Corsa VXR

The problem with the Corsa/Astra VXR is getting the power down, i drove my mates Astra VXR and although quick in a straight line it pulls you all over the road with the torque and theres massive understeer if you try and boot it out of a corner. Indeed, VXRs are easy prey for my LCR, been chipped t...

Re: Running car on bioethanol? mr2 turbo?
