Nice build, why the different tyres front to rear? with semi's reacting so different to each other is not ideal.

I know, but the 16' are so hard to get the right size plus can't afford $400+ some top brand tyres at moment.

Nice car and build so far . If your going to keep the bov venting to atmo first try the recirculating fitting that hks have. It changes the sound and quieten the bov down a fair bit.

When you are going for a run at the track, just add a thread on the trackday threads so we come and say hello if we available. Its always great to catch up with fellow MR2 owners at the track.

@purple5ive - Thanks.
 
@B24, few friends heading to circuit club's track day on the 9th/6/2014. Less than 3 weeks, still got a few things to be fix + tune. I am trying....

Here are some pics when I first got it:



 

Performance exhausts @ Northmead. I've spent a lot of time hanging around there

Hehe, I know Haks for long time and I am there almost every week!
 
Just went for a test drive. I found the MR2 handles totally different to Supra/FD and even my daily Audi TT. The front end was very unstable!! Even on the way back on the freeway and I can feel the front very twitching/unstable. Maybe the bushes/coilovers/old narrow tyres??? don't know but for sure the current condition won't even reach 1.15 @Wakefield.

Just went for a test drive @ Old Pacific Hwy, Mooney Mooney.

Just what you want at Mooney Mooney.
