Re: 36k MR2

Actually, thinking about it, I thought it was an L reg, and assumed it was a REV3, however, it was a private plate. Can't believe I didn't cotton onto that.

The paint definately looked factory, so it must be newer than I thought.

Does that make a difference to price?

36k MR2

Hi guys, I have an opportunity to acquire a REV3 MR2, UK model, T-Bar with only 36k miles on the clock. It does not have an MOT, but does run well, and I don't think it would need much, if anything, to pass. The underside is what I consider to be immaculate, with no rust showing on any areas of the ...

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Reducing front end lift and generally improving front end grip

I once had a Suzuki Cappuccino (I know, don't judge!!!) Because it was a Kei car, I managed to get 1 sheet of polypropylene that was just big enough to go from 5 inches in front of the bumper, to the start of the rear diffuser. That was the ultimate flat floor, although it was an absolute pig, as an...

Re: 1994 MR2 GT turbo T-bar

Glad to see the repairs done properly, and on a plus point, you've found out by looking rather than finding out at 120+MPH on a 'private road'!!!

[Mk2] [Generic] Fibreglass toms scoop copies - value

I have a pair of these, both in grey primer, which I will be looking to sell. I only have them, as they came with a spoiler in a package deal, and I wanted the spoiler only. Having looked on ebay, these are listed as £70 each, albeit brand new. Would I be off the mark listing the pair for £70, or am...

Re: The Ramblings and Diary of a Japanese Car Enthusiast

Just read the thread, and I love the cars mate. Had an Eunos, although it was nothing special like yours. Having had a 350hp s14a, I can appreciate the comments in respect of the mx5s being more fun at 'legal' speeds. I now have an NA MR2, as I couldn't pass it up at the price I got it, but I get th...

Fair enough bud. Thought the evening was fairly cheap to see if I liked it (first ever trackday in a car) but I can defo see what you are saying.

Re: Cadwell Park - In the Rev5 Tubby (Video + Drone footage added)

Looking good.

I've been thinking of booking for an evening on Cadwell.

Done a couple of trackdays here before on bike. What's it like in a car?

Re: See new thread

You don't happen to have a spare set of suspension arms knocking around?

I'm looking for a full set to strip, paint and polybush, but want to do the full set so I can swap all at once!

Thanks

Re: Suspension knock over light bumps but can't find anything loose underneath!

I am having a similar issue to this, but have resigned myself to checking everything after I've fitted the coilovers!

[Mk2] [NA] Empty vacuum pipe

Hi, I have a Rev3 NA, and am getting to know it a bit better after having now had it for a couple of weeks. I have spotted, above the ACIS actuator, a metal pipe that look like it joins 2 rubber vacuum pipes, but there is not a pipe on either side. I'm assuming that it means it has been bypassed, bu...
