Many thanks Peter

Ah good stuff will take that with me. Thanks.

Quick question guys. I got my MOT today and have got a decat fitted. I've got a N/A rev 2 g limited. Will this be considered as a non cat test?

Also i've recently put a UK 3sge engine in. Would that make a difference? Should i tell them this?

Thanks

Thanks, yeah I do really think yellow fogs stand out over the black

Still need to lower the back.

Thanks guys. K&N Intake NGK Iradium's Momo Steering, with TRD horn Fk silverline coilovers. (only fronts installed for now) Back set of wheels are Enkei from an s2000 I believe. Stainless Steel Exhaust That's what I can think of now. Not much but loving it. :D Got a short vid I did yesterday.. h...

Manage to sort out all problems today and all is well!

The Camber issue I just loosened the strut bolts and pulled it straight and tightened again. Simple issue.

And the passenger side rattling was due to the drop link being loose.

Thanks for the feedback guys.!

I haven't taken them for alignment yet since I still haven't put the back coilovers on yet. How much is it roughly? And do they sort the problem out? I used the old bolts from the old struts to hold in place, since no new ones were supplied. Nop never had any collisions. Just got the top mount off a...

Hey guys been on here a while but never actually shown my MR2. Got the car this year in Jan. Love the car but have run into quite a few problems which has been delaying my full enjoyment lol. But i've been sorting them out one by one. (Slowly) This is how It currently sits which im quite happy with....

Bought a set of FK Silverline's in April but only just fitted the fronts on Monday. Car was fine no noises or rattles. Two days after drivers side started to rattle. I tightened everything up including drop link. And raised the height. Then I noticed the top of the tyre tucks into the arch whereas t...

Thanks for that guys, i'll try get the checked up soon!

Recently replaced the engine in my rev 2, bought from a MR2 Specialist. 100k With Service History. However it seems to feel laggy compared to my older 3SGE. Also had a new timing belt, clutch and oils, fluids changed. When accelerating it doesn't feel as the power goes straight to the wheels. And ha...

Thanks for that Peter. Going to try and grab an engine and stick that in. Would love either a V6 conversion but being a student there's no way lol. I was thinking about the 3SGTE but not sure. Do they go for the same as 3SGE's? Haven't seen none about on ebay. Quite a tight budget i've got going. I'...

Ah thanks for that.
I got in contact with a engine service specilist garage local to me they gave my a quote. Quite resonable perhaps?
£995 New Internals
£250 Labour
£85 Gaskets, Liquids
5 Year Warrenty
How does that seem? Worth it?

Hi guys, engine is knocking so im pretty sure its the bottom end gone.
Just wanted to know how much roughly a bottom end rebuild will set me back?
To a standard 3sge. Including parts + labour
Have you guys had any experience in this?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for that. Woodsport have an excellent website might try them in the future. Still trying to work out the problem. However oil was quite low could this fine it down to where the problem lies. Heard this from another forum about noise rattling. "There is a design fault with the rev1/2 engi...

Ah I see. Well i'll hopefully update the thread tomorrow to what has actually happened.
Also what engines would you recommened to be a straight fit? Other than 3sge? Or would that be the best bet?
Cheers

Yep still drives fine but with a rattle that starts from 3krpm.
Hopefully getting one to look at it tomorrow.
Wouldn't it be easier to, say change the camshafts if there are the problem?
Thanks for the quick response btw.

Hey guys, quite a big problem i think i've got here. Did a high speed run on the motorway and revving quite high up. After returning home i noticed a rather loud rattling noise. And it's coming from inside the engine block. Im guessing conrod or camshaft damage? That's my guess. Any help would be gr...

Yeah seems a bit expensive...

Found a new set-up, how would these fit?

45ET
Front 8J 215-45-17
Rear 9J 245-40-17

Thanks again

Yeah a great set of enkei's £200. Will generic ebay hubs do the job? If you have any recommendations?

Ah dang, thanks for the info guys much appreciated.
