Hi folks, just joined the forum a few days ago and read this thread with interest.  I've just got myself a 2003 roadster totally stock other than the rear tyres are 225's rather than 215's.  just fitted a new performance filter from TRD (many thanks to Ascended Saiyan for a previous post detailing what's involved).   Booked in for tomorrow Tuesday for a s/s catback exhaust from Longlife,  has anybody on here used them and are their products good?  Will I get much of a gain in BHP, torque etc with their products?

Many thanks in advance.  Dave.

You would need to pay £81.66 on top after Duty and VAT giving a total of £403.15

Plus the shipping company usually charge a fee for sorting this for you (Maybe another £20)

Probably not worth it imo, you could have one made up here for that!

Hi Andy,

yeah, that's how much I worked it out to.  s:( :( s:(  Curently I have the idea on hold because I have a feeling my oil consumption has decided to increase. Currently monitoring it and checking out prices for a 2zz conversion  s:) :) s:)  (£3000 by woodsport currently)

I bought a "Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine" to lose weight. I put on five stone. I blame the delicious gravy it makes.

Quote from: "dcod"Good point! I wonder if I can get Che to stick some shiny stars on it and wrap it in birthday paper ... you don't have to pay import tax on gifts!

I think they are 'cracking' down on this. I just had a parcel from the US which was marked in a import friendly way and it still got stopped. The item was just over £100 yet i get charged another £28ish for the privilege of customs getting their sticky fingers on it  s:( :( s:(

I didn't think Woodsports were overly keen on doing non-V6 swaps? Perhaps they're branching out, or you really pushed the 2zz idea  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Nor did I, maybe times are hard!

I sent him:
My MR2 Roadster is slowly eating itself due to oval bore syndrome and I'm looking to convert to a reliable engine. Can you tell me if you do a 2zz conversion for the Roadster and the sort price we're talking?

He sent me:
Hi Dave, yes i could convert it to 2zz, the engine bundle will cost around £1800 (subject to supply) and you would be looking at around £1200 labour with all of my detailing included and new parts supplied.

Hoping to get some info from Rogue aswell seeing as they are a lot closer!
