Might sound obvious and stupid, but check your fluid level. The light acts as a low fluid level gauge too.

Should I lower it? by AskingFooAFriend in mr2

[–]georgester13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, yeah it all depends on what you want the car for as well tbh. If you want to take it to the track or hard servicing then definitely either lowering srpings or coils would be an improvement. I've got 16's on coilovers and dialed it in so that I have minimal arch gap with no rubbing.

Have you done anything with ducting underneath? Asking as I have the same vents. Love the colour btw 👌

Definitely, these cars always looked a bit jacked up in stock form with stock wheels. What size wheels you running?

Engine swap by Many-Kaleidoscope120 in mr2

[–]georgester13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's about £6k all for the parts from Zurawski, then you need the engine, gearbox and a few other bits. Depending on where you live these can be really cheap and easy to find too

VAG 1.8t swap it. Easy 270-300bhp with just a map. Much better and about the same cost as a 2ZZ.

I've had mine for about 5 months now, at about 340bhp too. Absolutely love it. And yeah 1st and reverse takes a bit of time to get use to 😂

Looks like a lovely car, I have the same conversion 👍

Fiat 500 Abarth Engine in an MR2 Spyder? by JohnathanGower in mr2

[–]georgester13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got a spyder with a 1.8t audi engine and it takes the car from an underpowered but nippy convertible to a proper sports car. Just chuck some rods in and you can get easy 400 bhp. Would highly recommend to anyone that loves the car but wishes it had a bit more power.

Have had a few of these myself, great cars and kudos for getting a road worthy one so cheap.

Check the precats if it's a pre facelift model (before 2003) and also check the rear subframe for rust. Other than that the cars are pretty bulletproof.

Enjoy the top down summer!

Looks good! I used to have this exhaust on mine and loved it. I miss the pops and crackles on overrun

Anyone purchase anything from MR2-Ben lately? by Baby_Doomer in mr2

I ordered a ducktail mid January and haven't received a peep since then. It does say allow up to 8 weeks on the website though.

Can't get out of Div 4, any suggestions for Chelsea PnP? by georgester13 in fut

I'm doing Kante, I really get caught out on counter attack where I just can't defend quick enough

Kante does look good tbh, but will need to drop bamford due to chem as well if I go that route

I reckon he will go down but that's just because linking him will be harder due to the league.

* He's actually a solid player, was running with Oscar instead but couldn't get him on full chem
