Re: amount of mr2 left

I dont think even the most tidy na is worth 2-3 grand. But I think the demands not there for na simply due to the engine.
I had one and it was pretty embarasing to be honest. The turbo does have hair rasing speed and thats what people want in a two seater

Re: amount of mr2 left

Look at all the Ford RS Turbos, Renault 5 GT Turbos and even Vauxhall Novas are starting to fetch wedge. All suddenly rotted/got nicked and written off/scrapped.. Now if you want one you`re looking at 3 grand for something that needs work, upto 7k for a minter (at least the RS and the Renault 5). T...

Re: Front tyre sizes, max width on 17's?

Re: Toyota Atsral Black is just Black?

there is metallic, pearlescent, gloss, matte black. some with more 'flakes' in so it looks a lighter shade. go ahead and paint it using what you want but i garentee you will regret not using the right colour

Re: To buy or not to buy?

for new driver undeersteer is much more easy to deal with you just lift off the throttle. oversteer needs steering imput aswel

Re: Wheel/Tyre size selection for trackdays?

going from 18 to 17 to 15 i agree 15s are definatly the best for speed and agility.
but the 17s will have low profile stiffer sidewalls. so you have alot more feel for the car, and how much grip you have in the corners
