...Regrettably now up for sale is my other half's
(Anita) MR2 turbo... After much thought she has decided she isnt gonna have her own 'sports car' to roll around in for a while since we both share the diesel pug and it makes our financial situation a little easier to live with as its cheaper to run and share just the one car.Some of you may remember her gleaming white Rev4 UK N/A T-Bar she sold last year.
This car has been babied just as much as that one, although the condition of this turbo when purchased isn't really on par although it is 5 years older.Without further delay, the spec as follows
(pics taken from my mobile and im not impressed)
1993 Toyota MR2 GTS TinTop Turbo with 75k(ish) miles when worked out, fully UK converted inc rear fog and speedo now MPH and MPH faced.
Fully operational Toad alarm system, 1 fob and 2 keys.Taxed
& MoTExterior:
Front bumper from a 3s-fe MR2 thus having the fogless look
Advan VS-6 16" Wheels wrapped in Falken 512's removed and resprayed in Satin by myself
(a decent job)All but front windows either factory or professionally tinted, no seams or cut lines.
Interior:
Leather interior from a UK car and in VGC for its age, no tears or holes.
Real carbon fibre sheet and genuine rare Kakimoto engraved plate on passenger side dash.
This is currently covering 3 neatly cut 60mm gauge holes as the gauges were nasty I had to pull them out and bin them. Kept her happy!Blitz talking Turbo timer!
TRD Nardi Wheel on display but I wanna keep hold of this as its rare and.
.. I like rare things. I gifted it to her during her ownership of the car but the other wheel that was on it is sold so ill get another to put on it.Nardi gear stick on display will be replaced with another unit as well.
Chassis:
Retaining standard Bilstein suspension units.
The brakes have been uprated with new grooved discs and EBC Yellow stuff pads all round covered around 1k miles

3S-GTE Engine with CT20 Turbo fully mapped on an ABC SuperChip at 1.0 bar of boost

Full cam belt, tensioners, bearings replaced and the head was re-shimmed to Toyota spec by Luke
@ Pacific works last year at 98k on the odoDue a service in the next few weeks which I will carry out, just an Oil and Filter ill do.
Bad Points?.
..Mechanically its perfect but just before christmas someone took a light swipe with their car to the drivers door, the damage isnt that noticable but im picky and it doesnt bug me.
It can easily be sorted at low cost by a bodyshop. The door is dented slightly near the bottom and has some scuffing as pictured.
Only other fault is stone chips on the bonnet as pictured.
The rest of the car is in good nick, no rust just some very light marks around the car and some touch ups here and there. Main markings are to the front bumper which again isnt that noticable.
Here are some vids showing in order.
.. Start up from cold, hard acceleration and up-hill boosting from 3rd. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydPBmqDEMes

(no its not clutch slip its wheelspin through 1st and second)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53yfYSIgu1Q
(listen to that beautiful suction)The engine is sweet and well maintained.
No ticks, smoke or knocks and pulls quicker than my T020 which is running shy of 300BHP... This thing not long ago stayed on par with a new shape BMW M3 when I had the chance to drive it while Anita was out (tee hee).This car will put a smile to anyones face.
