Tempted now,

How much better handling are the rev3 over the rev1, and what needs to be done say to a rev 1 to bring the suspension on par with a rev3?
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
you weren't watching close enough if you think the mr2 didn't oversteer.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
he was using a tiny angle to get round that big 180* corner at the bottom of the track and the last corner onto the finish straight.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
the only things that are any different really are the front suspension on the rev1 had 1 more adjustment than all the other rev's at the front.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
the rear subframe is different too.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
these can be swapped onto the rev1 from a later rev with ease.

different spec cars ran different shocks depending on year/model.

best were the black billys on the turbo as an option upto rev3 where it was standard.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
lsd was an option on most models but the rev3+ turbo has one as standard i think.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
bigger wheels on rev2+ as well as bigger brakes.

.

brakes are the same for all cars and models from rev2+, with the exception of the vaccum assist unit and
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(i think) the non-adjustable bias block.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
nearly all the rev2+ cars had power steering, which is heavier.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
it was an option on rev1.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
the later rev cars also have more and more things like abs and door crash bars, air bags etc.

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
they got fat basicly.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
as for weather the rev3 is better than the rev1.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
i don't personally think so.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
the rev1 was more a driver's car but you had to know how to drive a mid engine car on the edge to get the most out of it.

this meant that some people found it a little too hardcore on the road.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
i never had any trouble with it.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
the rev2+ handle fine and tend to have a bit more understeer built into them to save the genral public from having to catch the back end as much.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
driving them back to back the main thing i notice is the steering as the rev1 i get to use has no powersteering but the rev2 and rev3 i use both have PS.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
i love the non PS setup but it's really heavy for parking.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
the PS on the later models is good though, still get feedback and it's not stupidly light either.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
other than that they are still mr2's and feel similar most of the time.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
none of the ones i use are turbo though.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
there was some big changes to the power, engine, gearbox, suspension, brakes, weight and driver aids from rev1 to rev3.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
and not having driven them back to back i can't really comment on how they differ.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
i do tend to find that the turbo's can't be thrashed as hard on B roads as they are too powerful.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
compared to the NA cars.
