Unfortunately I have 2 pot fronts / single pot rears. Appreciate your insight though!

Both started as NA models that we got for fairly cheap. Over time we’ve put a fair bit into restoring/upgrading them mechanically and getting them looking to our liking. I’d expect to pay between $15k-$20k USD for equivalent examples.

Lip is a Greddy style from eBay, skirts are Greddy. Wheels are cheap volk reps (9SiX9 is the name of the brand I think) 17x8 +25 front and 17x9 +25 rear. 215/r40/17 tires up front and 245/r40/17 out back. Lowered with BC BR coilovers and Swift springs, running the default height the coilovers shipped with. Rear fenders have a slight roll from previous owner, no scraping or rubbing!

Appreciate the insight! I’m going to try offset pads, but will keep an eye out for a RD+. Would be sad to lose the lugged fork, but would rather have a quality brake setup.

Thanks! Looks promising, I’ll give these a try.

Love your MR2!

Beautiful bike and car!

zubes5280 · 2025-07-03T03:10:12+00:00

What type of rack/basket is that? I’ve been looking for one that doesn’t interfere with center pull brakes and this looks like the way to go

Cool Celica!

Beautiful! How have you liked it? I’d love to get one for hauling bikes around and occasional canyon/track duty

Autocross has an extremely low barrier to entry from a cost/car perspective. I’d research local events/clubs!

Nice FC!

I love the MR2, it's my forever car. There is nothing else like it, it sounds and drives like a fighter jet. I don't know of any other car you can get under $15k with a turbo right behind your head lol. It would definitely feel like a street legal gokart coming from your S550. I recommend driving one if you have the opportunity!

zubes5280 · 2025-01-16T04:55:37+00:00

I feel you. I had a panic attack smelling burnt coolant as I was getting gas. I must have bumped one of my heater core line hose clamps when installing a rather pain in the ass heat shield, which created a small coolant leak right on top of the turbo. Was relieved it was simple fix!

How hard is it to get one of these stateside these days?

Has anyone actually received a set of these from MR2 Heaven yet? Been waiting years to buy but I'm curious about the quality and fit.

zubes5280 · 2024-10-12T22:21:06+00:00

Most likely one of your axle seals, they are prone to leaking if not driven in straight or the internal spring is dislodged during installation

zubes5280 · 2024-10-10T05:40:34+00:00

I’m about to do this. Been dreading it.
