My new MR2 Turbo

Dolph Starbeam

Blimey there quick, standard rev3 turbo apart from an Apexi induction kit, HKS Turbo timer and an Apexi N1 exhaust. I'm not sure i want to even finish my v6 swap now.

I've put around 300 of my own miles on it driving from Bradford back to the middle of Ireland along with taking a few wrong turns but the car didn't skip a beat, i couldn't be more pleased.

jealous here..again!

very very nice.

Cheers lads, after only a week of looking for a turbo this one came up, exactly what i wanted, black, not t-bar, standard rev3, all i want now is some wide jdm style alloys and i'll leave it alone after that i think. Pulls like a rocket.

Very nice, lowerd on some JDM splitrims would be the ticket!

Just like any car mate, as much history as you can get, i luckily knew the seller so was confident it was in good nic. Let it warm up, take it for a good drive, 10 min's out, 10 back, us all the gears. Don't feel as if you have to buy it, he is the one selling it, make him sell it:)

I've driven 300 odd miles already and it hasn't skipped a beat yet. Keep an eye on all the fluids and to all the usual checks before a long drive. Also DON@T drive hard when car is still cold and you should be fine.

lovely looking MR2 there, non t-bar is defiantly the one to have, its only a pity the turbo never came with a sunroof.
They're a great car and bullet proof. I had a black NA for a couple of years and will buy a Turbo one again to keep as a second car.

If your looking for a nice set of wheel, what about these, i would have bought them in a heart beat if i still had mine;


there for sale in this thread, the fella's up around belfast.

Oh i like them, they have kind of grown on me in just a few minutes lol.

yeah i think there would look so good on a black MR2, their the right pcd and offset. Only thing is they're the same size all round, but the backs would take a 235 tyre and a 205 for the front.
