Re: JLW's ( REV 3 GT spec Turbo, smg Tbar ) YVS Performance Built

Cant believe how neat you got that heat tape!

We put that tape on my chargecooler pipes recently and they look like a badly wrapped Christmas present!!

Mind you we didn't take much time over it. Might get some more and redo after seeing yours. Looks well tidy.. :clap:

Re: Red Rev 3 tintop turbo (pictures added)

some decent kit going on there mate, it had a berk decat on bought and fitted by me when I sold it, I thought they didn't crack? Looking forward to the results from mapping and the rebuilt turbo! #-o It is a Berk downpipe and it's cracked! In quite a few places! So we'll see how the new one holds u...

Re: Orange Side Lights

They were also used on JDM cars, I think the US ones don't even have the sidelight bulb I can't remember. Technically you shouldn't use em because it makes the sidelights a bit orange, but I've got a set and with an led sidelight bulb it doesn't look orange at all. Been through quite a few MOT like...

Orange Side Lights

Anyone know where I can get hold of a set of these fully amber side light/indicators?

Are they USDM?

Re: Red Rev 3 tintop turbo (pictures added)

Dont bother with WI unless you're getting it mapped in. If it's not mapped in, it just arses around with your power and kills torque. Personal experience. Ok, thats good to know. Preference would be to map it in and make the most of it. Its just risky if anything fails. Im going to see what kind of...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] 800cc Injectors advice

I'm really not sure man. The sards do have blue tops but fitment wise they look the same. Same as stock too. They do the blue tops aswell but as far as I know those are low impedance and the browns are high impedance. I figured as its being mapped to go with high impedance and just delete the resis...

It does say they are rebuilds, using sard internals. So i'm guessing thats a copy plastic body with re flowed used internals? :-k

[Mk2] [Turbo] 800cc Injectors advice

Ive been looking for some Sard 800cc side feed injectors for my Rev 3 turbo. I thought that was going to be a nice simple upgrade to get on the car before I fit the Motec and get it mapped. However the bloke I bought the Motec from asked what injectors I planned on running and when I told him. He to...

Little update

Just a little update as some of the parts start to arrive. Cars been off the road for the winter as the downpipe cracked, I had it welded up once before but this time it was terminal. So ordered a downpipe & tubular manifold from Tuning Developments. https://i.imgur.com/f3bgw7O.jpg I was looking...

Re: Red Rev 3 tintop turbo (pictures added)

Trust me it's been getting pampered! Had a full alignment done as soon as I got it home. It was all over the place on the drive home when I bought it! I'm not happy with the coilovers so they are going, replacing with some KW's as soon as I can. Haven't had it on the rollers yet but it's quick! Does...

Re: Red Rev 3 tintop turbo (pictures added)

I've been keeping an eye on here hoping it would pop back up, here's hoping you look after it better than the lad I sold it to. He really seemed to let it go a bit. Trust me Just before I took it off the road for its last winter with me I replaced all the ball joints, drop links, and tracks rod end...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Stock NA shocks with Koni inserts on a Rev 3 turbo?

I replaced my inserts with 25% upgraded items with my -40mm progressive rate shocks and the difference for the money was incredible. I did cut and seal the rear arches to run 10mm spacers as well mind you. ;) What inserts and springs are you running? You have 40mm progressive springs right? KYB if ...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Stock NA shocks with Koni inserts on a Rev 3 turbo?

the combo of n/a struts and inserts has been done and works as well as any change however remember the turbo cars came with stiffer suspension and lower (esp rev3+). I actually have B6 Yellow Bilsteins and very slightly lowering springs for sale that I took off my old rev3 turbo, new front top moun...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Stock NA shocks with Koni inserts on a Rev 3 turbo?

With all the potholes and speed bumps and car park ramps I would not lower an mr2. It's already lowered! Actually sits at a sensible height, so no problems with clearance! If you can get them, the correct oem shocks are pretty good for road use if they are not worn out. Yeah thought about this, not...

[Mk2] [Turbo] Stock NA shocks with Koni inserts on a Rev 3 turbo?

Hi guys, so I've been researching suspension options for my 96 rev3 turbo. Currently I have Meister R Coilovers which came with the car and I'm not happy at all with the ride quality. Now I have heard good things about these coilovers so it might be down to the fact they are tired, as I have no idea...

Only just found your build thread on here, after getting a couple of pages in I realised it was the MR2 that was on Monky London! Read through it all last night.. Definitely some ups and downs in there!! Good read though. Lovely MR2, actually really helped me in my choice to finally get one! I'm wat...
