Goes well

[Magic Beans]

It confirms that it has (or had) a GT40 turbo in it.

I was curios to what a Super Fusion Charge Cooler was .. it seems to be a well kept secret, all I could find out is it drops charge temps to around 0 to 12 degrees celcius (impressive if true, I would love to know how this is done and see some data) but the price ... £3000 I will stick with water/meth for the time being I think.

Anyhoo.. I found this run down of prices payed for parts on this car, by some of the prices to say the least.

Excluding the seats = £45'494
+10'000 for the seats.


Kev.

Edit.. After rereading, I dont think its the same car same seller though.

[greeny]

If thats worth 25k, mine is easily worth double that, and thats a "genuine" 700BHP car

What a load of b0ll0x

Did you ever run yours at the strip?

[A.BLAKE]

Same seller is selling this car and stating exactly the same spec..?

Why make up new b0ll0x when it's easier to cut and paste old...

[ashley]

The only one mr2 in the world with this spec

Except for the other 3 or 4 that you're selling with exactly the same spec

A lot of hate for this guy

His cars seem nice enough though. Might see one this weekend!

I think its just jealousy The guy knows how to make high spec MR2's and is obviously making a good living out of doing it... its not cheap making a 700BHP+ car

i like the fact it can do 9.1 1/4s with a huge spoiler.
i hope he patented whatever device makes it imune to wind resistance

Have you saw what can happen at them speeds without a proper rear spoiler? Theres a video of an Evo flying down a airfield strip and then again without the rear spoiler on to see if it made a difference... as soon as he let off / slowed down it was Brown trousers time!! the car was all over the place at 150+ odd MPH and Im sure it just spun out and ended up on the grass.... All because the rear spoiler wasnt on giving downforce..... Plus F1 cars have big ass spoilers on and they tend to pic up speed quite fast....

[tonigmr2]

Jealousy or bitter experience. I think most people know which.

[Turbonoz]

....plus you can't beat a good ol' fashioned interweb Witch Hunt

[tonigmr2]

You pays your money you takes your chance. Ultimately 'tis up to you.

I think its just jealousy

Nah mate, he really is a bs'er

Soon find out:

Xxxx Mirza B31 Toyota MR2 Turbo 2 Ltr

His is the sole MR2 competing, so he represents us all

[Kongaroo]

Not sure how that stops him from being full of it.

Although if he really is the only competing MR2 then I wish him the best of luck on the day

[A.BLAKE]

What the vibe with this Xxxx dood? does he run a garage or sell tuning parts?? Or just sell second hand MR2s?

[tonigmr2]

I can't see any times at all for that entry. Perhaps something didn't go to plan?

@A.Blake, both I think. Forgive the IMOC down on the guy, but he got banned from here for a) fibbing about a quarter mile time but more importantly b) threatening a member who complained he'd been short changed.

I've met the chap and he was nice enough, but I've never bought anything, and the stories I keep hearing kind of put me off. But I am fussy who I deal with.

Best run was an 11.4@141mph iirc, then had a water leak and retired. He thinks he's cracked the block.

I tried to talk to him, but he was pushing it back.
