unless you are taking it out on track i think coilovers would be a bit overkill ... by the looks of it (and don;t take offence) your car is about looks, a bit of performance, and some in yer face ICE (or should that be up yer bum judging by the position :tongue: )

so... if i were you I'd sort out some Bilsteins, and some decent lowering springs (40mm drop) such as Eibach :wink:

feel i have given the wrong impression i posted pics so cud get some help from the people who know mr2's the best so any comments are welcome.

well went to sort the looks out as only 20 so insurance on a big power car is way out of my reach. plus once start playing with engine u never stop, and more u play the quicker fuel goes, am i rite? :roll:

been looking at the bilstien on Rogue Systems talking about 500quid plus springs if we talking about the same ones. The ice is getting re-done in next few weeks as i too skint to go on hols. :cry:
obviously spent too much cash now to just sell it. but realy wanting more power. is it worth transplanting a tubby engine?

bit contradictory there :lol:
budget around £2k min for a rev3 transplant and make your decision from there (unless you are handy with a spanner.. then the cost could be halved :eye: )
