Re: MR2 Mk2 NA - As much fun as a tubby?

I must admit, when I had my old rev3 tubby, the back end was very very lively. Fine if you want it like that, but going round a roundabout at 15mph in the drizzle shouldn't require such concentration! #-o With regards to the power of the turbo, I have had 3 300bhp scoobies, an MR2 rev3 tubby and a D...

Re: MR2 Mk2 NA - As much fun as a tubby?

Thanks for that. :D Much prefer cornering as opposed to straight line performance. That was what impressed me more with my old tubby. It was just so 'pointy'. The only problem with that as you well know, the back end is all too eager to jump round and spoiler the party! :clap: That's why I have my e...

MR2 Mk2 NA - As much fun as a tubby?

Hi peeps. I was lucky enought o own a rev 3 tubby around 2 years ago. I am now starting to feel the urge to re-visit those days. How much does a good rev 3 tin-top go for these days. Also, if I had a chance to buy a very good condition NA, such as below, would I still get as much enjoyment out of as...

HKS exhaust up-pipe

Does this exhaust fit to the standard up-pipe, or will it need its own specific item. I've asked the guy, and he said the up-pipe is still on his car?? I thought every aftermarket exhaust had its own up-pipe?? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4640072584&sspagename=ADME%3A...

Even if it did fit, a 235/50/15 size tyre is quite hard to get hold of. :-k

turbo stutter

Just trying to solve a little niggle with my 2 (standard rev 3 tubby). When it comes on boost after a gear change, say around 3000rpm, It feels as if the turbo stutters for 2-3 seconds, then pulls cleanly to the red line?? It doesn't happen all the time, and if I wait 2 seconds after I change gear a...

Interior mat fastening pin?

I have orginal mats in my tubby with the 'eye-let' hole. However, i'm missing the pin/screw to attach it properly. The driver's mat keeps slipping foward and under the throttle pedal!
Can you get this part from Mr.T, and what does it look like?
