Discussion and technical advice the SW20 MR2. 3S-GTE, 3S-GE, 3S-FE etc
Anything and everything to do with maintenance, modifications and electrical is in here for the Mk2.
Every day, plus WMS test-bed, plus trackdays, plus euro-road trip/nurburgring, plus "delivery van" for brake discs between machine shops etc!
I can get about 40 discs in it, which adds 150-200kg.
It has a hard life.

Before that it was when I could but very little use really varying things normally mean I don't drive it often enough
Much the same, not driven mine since August 2010 when the turbo bust. Hope to be back on the road this spring where I'll drive it as much as I can afford!

..the only thing I can promise for sure is slow progress.

just have this niggling thought that if I rip out the wiring, then the car will never get out of the garage again.

Good luck!! V-Power + 400+bhp = £££'s
I keep telling myself to stop using boost, but it's just too damn tempting
Yeah, I think I have a shock coming when I start driving it!
I imagine spending all that money on the 2 then not using boost would be like buying a bear and not teaching it to dance

Bought my MK2 over 1 year ago & use it everyday.
Was off the road for 2 months last year during that freeze up, but that was because the doors were frozen shut lol

Great first post, welcome...
My tubby is a daily driver for the last 10 yrs.
Started getting corrosion issues 2-3 yrs ago. Couldnt decide what to replace it with so kept it so got the rot sorted out and a respray last year.
I see quite a few MR2s in the south, but I think most of those seem to get put away for winter.
I use my car everyday to get to work and back (10 min drive) and take it on random drives as it drives great and I love it.
I have only owned it since mid December last year,
Yup daily also,drop the missus to work every day, then crack on to work myself. usually end up doing 2 or 3 trips a day. Seen 3 MR2's in 2 days. One grey/silver MR2 in southend (road trip today)
A bright yellow MR2 around the greenford/ealing area often.
And a white Mr2 parked up on the other side of a fence off the a40
