My 225s are just scrapping in how do you get 295 anywhere near fitting? Or why go that wide without a larger engine anyway?

That's the way I bought it they fit because of the wide body kit !
It grips so well in the dry so I wouldn't trade them.just yet through the hills the rear really holds even when I'm pushing the tires hard!
I think it was the past driver that drove it like an auto that killed the clutch foot at friction point at the lights etc

Alright egg on my face then regarding how precats shouldn't get sucked back in. I hope we've both learnt a lesson.
 
In the name of emissions though by scavenging exhaust gases back in, that's nasty and would definitely explain it.

aussiespyderBut it's only the 00-02 Spyders with the precat issues!


As I understand it, it isn't restricted to just the earlier Spyders.
Seems to be well discussed on other forums though if more information is required.

buzza, cant deal with all these questions here. call me if you want info.
 
I have made a kit of brackets and custom headers  already. they available to purchase
 
no idea who chopped up that subframe pictured above, but its a bit radical. stupid really. only very slight changes are needed. it would never get thru any serious engineering assessment

Lol. Don't forget hydrogen powered, F1 valve train systems running 20000 rpm because cams and valves are "outdated".
Facepalm.

I was looking to buy a new MR2 shell and sell my current car for the extra cash to build a mr2 with a blown motor but theres too many cheap skates so that plan has changed I have since drawn up all the designs for the new body and have had a meeting with a fibreglass company who is going to make the body panels and have decided to go with a 2zz forged motor with forced induction due to the 15% performance rule when doing a swap!

The car is now running with a new engine and performance exhaust!
