[Mk2] [NA] Rev 2 3SGE oil surge with track tyres?

Post by Adam »

Hello, I am going to be using kumho v70a's this year (205 front 225 rear both 15" hard compound) on trackdays, will I have problems with oil surge during cornering? I have managed to find info on the rev 3+ but not much on the rev 1+2.
Any help would be appreciated

Thanks.

No issues with oil surge in the MR2 Championship on Toyo R888s. The revision 3+ sump is a better design than revision 1/2 if you're concerned.

If you went to full slicks then I'd consider using an accusump.

Thanks for the reply's, car should be ok then hopefully. I wont be running slicks as the car is still used on the road although I would love a track only MR2 stripped and caged (^_^)/
