Re: [Mk2] [NA] Fitting rear 255/40/17's to rev 2 rev 3 turbo conversion.

you need to know the wheel offset and I'm sure it needs to be a 9inch rim too. An ET of 35mm will likely rub (pretty bad) but ET of 42 wont be so bad. Either way roll the arches and be done with it. Anything lower than et35 will require the arches to be pulled too. Look at my breaking thread, you'll...

Re: I'm coming back (again!)

welcome back :thumleft: I'm just getting rid of my rev3 turbo as the rust has killed it. I miss it already, the 350z just isn't the same beast at all. Good luck with your new mr2 :mrgreen:

hi engine lid is available, easier to protect than bumper but still not easy. I've had a look online and zero couriers take body panels :(

Re: Some Pop-up Light questions

yep entirely normal. You can wire in a switch box to allow you the choice to have the lights go back down again, cant remember where that guide is though..

shipping bumpers is a big problem, it's almost impossible to find someone that will do it and of course the problem of it arriving in one bit is not high. engine, could find someone likely yes.

Re: breaking 1995 rev gts caribbean blue :( - car has no more parts left

honestly at that price you'd be best getting them new. I'm not sure how easy we'll get bolts like that out of the subframe, that and the engine is still sitting on it ;)

Re: L355CTY - Ever regretted selling a car?

i regret mine dying through the rust monster. Breaking it as I didn't want someone to buy it and then sell it on without stating the issues with it or doing a crap repair job and punting it on as better condition. Waiting on my premium membership coming through so I can advertise on here :cry:

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Where can i buy a power steering pump from?

yeah if it's got heavier since you fitted it then something is amiss for sure. Not sure what else to say, weirdly I find the steering on my 350z a good bit heavier than the mr2. Never thought I'd say that about the mr2!

comparing the weight (softness) of the steering of a 90's sports car to that of a 2017 city runabout isn't really a fair comparison. :thumleft:

doesn't the power steering pump run on a Pulse Width Modulation - ie it's a square wave format not a straight 12v?

Is it really just as simple as cutting/disconnecting the red wire?

if your fogs are on shouldn't your headlights be on as well?
