Re: engine management light on help
I just fitted a blitz nur spec to it and then this started.
I will try the error codes tonight.
If its the nok sensor, and I replace it, is it just going to go again?

engine management light on help
Engine management came.on when I was giving the car a good going.
I have a boost controller fitted, but aince management light comes on, it will boost to 10psi gradually even tho ita set at 7psi.
And 18-19 psi even tho ita set at 17psi

Re: Normal oil consumption for a turbo MR2
read on google about problems with Castrol Magnatec 10w 40 oil.
Best to avoid? I was going to get a nice fully-synthetic as ive upped the boost from standard

Re: mr2 suddenly rough idle and won't rev past 3k
small hose at the back drivers side of the car going to small plug like a map sensor or something.

Normal oil consumption for a turbo MR2
As above, just checking to see mine is within the limits.
Read somewhere that up to a litre per 1000 miles is normal?

Re: Vredstein Ultrac Sessanta reviews?
Ok, the vredsteines arrived.
Am I right in thinking these arent directional? read on google that oppsed to being directional, they have to be the right way round on the wheel so that they diepsl water.
This means the treads will look odd from the rear of the car though

Re: Few pics of my MR2 as it stands
R5 is a quick wee car. The williams is faster though, without the worry of the turbo. The 16valver I have is incredibly quick for what it is. Spanks 182's etc. Guess its the power to weight ratio. Popular conversion to the renaukt 5 is the 1.7 turbo engine out of a vovlo 440/480 turbo. Renault built...

Re: Few pics of my MR2 as it stands
I love starlets. Never had one though. Had a punto gt which was fast as hell. also had a renault 5 gt turbo. Think they are all uinreliable apart from the starlet though. Ive had about 6 of these wee clios. Such fun. Mine has a lot of decent parts on it too. Just need a set of discs all round, and ...

Re: Few pics of my MR2 as it stands
Small/lightweight cars with decent power do offer a very fun driving experience, I had a Starlet GT Turbo, only had it running stock boost with a few mods so say 140hp max, weighed just shy of 900kg and what a blast I had in that. It was super reliable too over the period of time I owned it. I alwa...

Re: MR2 locking wheel nuts - no key
well the inevitable happened and i got a puncture last night.
haha.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Advice on tightening the 4 up to relieve the locknut of pressure was good advice.
Slapped a socket over it, and off it came
Sods law though ![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)

Re: Few pics of my MR2 as it stands
MR2 turbo is in a league of its own. already as fast if not faster than my 400bhp scooby bugeye i just broke. My mate had an EVO FQ360 running 395bhp, and my mr2 (around 300bhp) kept up no bother, he was gutted :D the power delivery, the noise, only having 2 seats and being so low to the ground mak...

Re: Few pics of my MR2 as it stands
Yeah man go for what you like, your car looks awesome and really isn't far off I reckon ditch the lexus lights, polish up the exhaust and maybe look into getting a hold of a set of split rims...or even just wheels with a dish and a good offset that will sit them flush with the arches and you will h...
