For yourself choosing to do such a thing, and for all of the work involved from various people and companies, excellent achievement
This should be sold as a package.
Also, from what I could see, it looks like the body work is largely stock or only lightly changed?
Far too many dodgy fibreglass things on the road.
It looks fantastic
@ 70s fashion - is that the long hair pony tailed up?
- last i heard it was a TO4Z os something! Try a 850R, its an in-between the 35 and 42.JJ wrote:

BlowerHoot to drive though in a straight line
(the one with 4th gen 3sgte), would have been an even shorter run between cc and tb
720 bhp is mental. The torque is insane!(myself included) is how much does it cost to get to these sort of performance figures?

Question on most people lips
I don't know how much Mushim (spl) has spent but I reckon he won't be far off that kind of money. 300bhp, not too much money. More than that, then you start spending! Even at 420bhp at the hubs I parted company with around £15K, and that was with an engine that already had forgies in!!

£10K if you do decide to sell. 
- ain't been here as much as i'd like to over the last few days!(no re-mortgages yet though). But thats just the start! At this power level, things break quite easily (touchwood nothing has broken yet), but you have to be prepared for it! On track its pretty useless too! On a straight road / drag strip it'll probably come into its own, in-fact its an effin animal (30-130 against my friend's Gallardo, he was so far behind it was embarassing)!!!- stick with 400BHP its more then enough.- but am just being realistic!fuchsiasteve wrote:Chris wrote:Well I am 90bhp behind him and I have remortgaged my house twice
Which makes your car a steal at around
It's doing my head in as the 10k will just pay off the credit card bill

To get to this level its cost me in the region of 30k+
The nice thing is the power can be adjusted from between 400BHP and 700BHP so day to day am just using it as 400BHP car.
700BHP is pretty much useless in a MR2 on the road.
If you want big power, the MR2 is not the best car to start with
In comparison my Evo IX will be pushing in the region of 600BHP shortly and all in all its cost me less then 1/2 of what i've spent on the MR2, but the best thing is you can use 90% of the power ALL OF THE TIME!
I hope am not having a go
If your gonna build something like this, think about what you'll be using it for!

400bhp in an MR2 is perfect (some would argue it's insane and more than enough still!) 700bhp is simply a straight liner as are most 500bhp MR2s.mr2nut123 wrote:Nice to see you still realising the truths too.
Mine is almost a 15 year old car, although still very capable in the right hands...i prefer the work to be done for me nowadays, hence the evo ownership, that or am just getting old and prefer the car to do the work for me
