Re: Donington Park - 7th August - Evening session - fast MR2s...

I'll see what i can do lads - the only problem being i've currently got these on my spare wheels!

Fully slick Avon race radials - brand spanking! I'll see if i can get some different tires on in time (overtime at work pending! :-k )

Just booking day now 8)

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Long term test . . . . Berk Technology Exhaust (Turbo)

Sorry lads - couldn't find any close up pics from the track car that showed the exhaust #-o The yellowing looks about right to me, when i removed the exhaust the flexi had also discoloured a fair bit too. I don't think for a second this would effect the overall strength of the system - but it does l...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Long term test . . . . Berk Technology Exhaust (Turbo)

I had a Berk on my track car and true to form the tips and centre joint (between the 2 rear boxes) turned a yellow/bronze colour after just 2 track days :-k

Despite attacking it with autosol etc it was there to stay unfortunately :(


I sold the exhaust but i'll try and find some pics

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] wot size wheels??

17x7.0 fronts offset +32 with 215x40x17 rubber and 17x8.0 rears offset +38 with 235x40x17 rubber - relatively flush with standard bodywork and will clear coilovers with ease if you decide to buy some/own some already. Check what offsets are offered by the wheel manufacturer first - dont go higher th...

[Mk2] [Generic] To Kit n' Spray..... or not - that is the question (your thoughts wanted!)

Hi all, I just wondered whether you could help me make up my mind..... I have recently imported a genuine japanese body kit (which being honest isn't subtle :roll: ) including carbonfibre bonnet, mirrors and ducts etc. Up to now the kit alone has cost me in the region of £3500 :shock: #-o The car i ...

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Bought me some et45 17" wheels! Will they fit though?

I may be wrong but i would suggest you need some spacers on the fronts (at the very least) i believe on an 8" wide front the et should be +35 at least to clear the coilover (and only just at that).

I think there's a wheel size/offset guide around this site somewhere :-k


Only my 2p worth :)
