I think the main issue here is the comparison, we are comparing a 20 year old car to a modern supercar and all the advances in technology that brings.

Ive no doubt that the MR2 is a capable beast, hell its why I own one, but we are comparing apples and oranges here.

Even if you did manage to have the funds to get a MR2 to match a GTR's pace im not entirely sure you could match a GTR's reliability at that performance.

It'd just be on the back of your mind all the time, how long until something pops.

The GTR is designed, developed and engineered with years and years of research and development to perform outstandingly all day

- every day.

Im just not sure a 2wd mid engined car could ever match its pace.

Even if its capeable of doing so, a MR2 with GTR performance and pace'd be.

.interesting to drive.

I was going to say fun, but at this level you would have to be awake!

Realistically though, im not entirely sure its possible, but with unlimited funds and time, hell, who knows whats possible.

but lets put an arbitrary number on it, how much do you guys think it'd cost to do something like this? I think ill start the ball rolling at possibly 50k?

It'd be quite the project, but in my opinion, if you have those kind of funds to do this, just buy a GTR.
