Snap this offer up mate! Leeroy's is one of the tidiest 2s around

You could have Anti-lag setup on an aftermarket ECU. This changes the cam timing so that at low engine speeds the combustion exits the exhaust ports and keeps the turbo spinning. It's what rally cars do. It's not advisable in a road car :lol: Thats not correct, anti-lag infact alters the ign timing...

Volumetric Effeciency. Basically how effeciently the engine can pump air. The more air the engine can pump, the more torque is made. If you want less lag you might want to consider a V6 conversion :lol: You'll never get a 3S-GTE to be as lag free as the modern 4 pot turbos like in the Megane and Gol...

Nice vids Jim

Down hill drag racing!

rev5 turbos seem to be over-priced at the moment, imo. Especially when you consider what £6k can buy you these days (e.g RX8). Take your time and you'll be able to find a really nice example. There are a lot of dogs out there too. Airbags will only help if you drive into the back of someone! You nee...

i couldnt be ar$ed with having to worry about the cat issue come MOT time. Tune it til my hearts content and emissions test should never be an issue, but thats just my reasoning..... Rev3s can pass MOT without CAT as long as it's a pre Aug1995. With the prices of rev3s so low at the moment, he'd be...

make sure you get a rev3 or later These have 245bhp as standard and are more tuneable than the earlier cars. 270bhp is simply a boost increase away, no other mods required

Of course, anyone could do it....in theory!

I watched Luke [Skywalker] gut mine and it was anything but straight forward.

£80 well spent imo

elite's in rainham thay trade on here and you get discount i think :thumleft: :thumleft: :thumleft: done a lovely job on two of my cars :thumleft: :thumleft: :thumleft: I'll be getting a full alignment done soon.

No need to test drive Be in no doubt that a tubby will satisfy your accelerative needs

No, bouncy compared to stock springs.

Thinking to keep cost down I may just go for the stock toyota struts, but spings i'm still stuck on. I don't want to go too low, the cars too low at present. So use stock springs :thumleft: ](*,) Any one any experience with Apex, AVO or Eibach springs on stock struts? I had Eibachs with Black Billi...

Yeah, not something a non-mechanic should tackle.
SkyWalker (pacific works) will do it for £80.
I noticed a huge improvement on my car after gutting the CAT

Gut the stock CAT. 100% reliable and probably 90% the same performance.

I'd have thought that 215 width tyres would be extremely stretched on 8.5J wheels. 225 is the smallest you'd normally put on a 8in wheel, so you probably want 235.

Amazing car

I take it there was no more money left in the kitty to buy the correct width rear tyres

dampers stop the springs from oscillating freely. They control the compression, which can increase overall "stiffness" and they control the re-bound, which if too high can make the car seem too bouncy on bumpy surfaces. That's how I understand it, and I realise that the above is a very ove...

dont know about spring rates or anything like that ,but iv got a turbo(standard )and the original japanese susp parts are bilstein and its def a firmer ride than my n/a (standard as well)so i reckon they are different :? That's because the dampers are Bilstein on the Turbos, which gives the firmer ...

BenF commented in another thread that for a given revision of mk2 MR2, the NA engined cars have softer springs than the Turbo cars. Can anyone confirm or deny this? I'm interested because my plan is to dump the ageing Tein HAs on my Rev3 Turbo and fit Yellow Bilsteins and stock springs. The springs ...
