Re: [Mk2] [NA] Wheels and Tyres

You'll need to know the width and offset of the wheels

18" wheels will ruin the handling and ride of the car.

I think the TRD LSD's were manufactured by OS Giken, you could try contacting them.

Re: Can anyone with R32 GTST wheels measure the inside diameter, please?

The GTS-T wheels have an inner diameter of around 34cm where the brake discs/calipers sit, further inwards they do taper outwards to a bigger diameter on the rear face.

Re: MR2 REV3 NA not a happy bunny.

OK, thanks for checking that. Not exactly sure how to interpret that information. For background, the car is a 1994 REV3 NA 3S-GE. Does that mean this is the wrong ECU for the car? I have looked on Ebay and all those being advertised as off a REV3 have the same part code. (17500) whilst the REV1/2 ...

Re: MR2 REV3 NA not a happy bunny.

OK. So I removed the ECU, which wasn't actually bolted on, so I suspect has definitely been changed. Part number 89661-17500. Opened it up and everything inside looks fine. No bulging capacitors or obviously failed components and no burning smell. Removed the coil and ignitor. Ignitor is 89621-1602...

Re: New Purchase,,,, Where to start!?

NA or Turbo? The stock airbox is sealed from the engine bay, has a large filter surface area and draws in cool air through the side pod. In comparison an aftermarket induction kit sucks in hot air from the engine bay and has a smaller filter surface area, it will sound louder but it'll make the car ...

Re: Cusco brake stopper anyone ?

The bolt on mine that presses against the BMC is a lot longer than that. I would also thread a nut and washer onto the long bolt to lock the 2 blue arms together.

Re: Brake refresh

They've not been rebuilt since I've had the car but there's been no issues with them. That said it's been off road for two years. So the best option is rebuilding them you'd say? How often do people rebuild their brakes? Or do they only bother if there is a problem with them? I do see the sense in ...

Re: Brake refresh

I've got axel stands so can take two wheels off at a time but not all four. If so am I best of doing front or rear first or does it not matter? I'm thinking along the lines of bleeding the old fluid out? Jack up the front remove the calipers then fit the wheels back on, then do the same on the rear...

Re: Rusty sills on a MR2 Turbo

I've edited the cost on my earlier post, I'd forgotten I had the welding and paint work done at 2 different places, so the total cost was more like £600. There are some pics of the repair work I had done here https://www.facebook.com/pg/wheregt4dreamscometrue/photos/?tab=album&album_id=807011562...

Re: Rusty sills on a MR2 Turbo

The rear inner and outer sills are a common issue now given the age of them. I've recently had mine done using one of these kits, the repair work (cutting, welding, respray and undersealing) cost around £600. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-SET-Toyota-MR2-MK2-MKII-Rear-Sill-Repair-Panels-Inner-Lower-A...

The IC fan shroud has the same Toyota part number on all revisions, so they should be interchangeable.

Hi all, I'm looking to buy or make a set of rev5 spoiler extensions; the metal ones that raise the wing section even higher. Does anyone know anybody that makes/ sells them?

Yes I believe Tim fabricates them himself, I've seen photos of his work and it looks very good quality. If you need to contact him he trades on the Supra forum here: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/member.php ... velopments
