Hi all
I have just bought a nice little MR-S. Anyone out there reccommend any mods for it??
the list is endless,
give us a clue what area you want to improve/ruin?
s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
Well It already has a turbo and a nice body kit. Was wondering what i could do to squeeze more performance out of it. And how to convert the sat nav/tv screen
Thanks in advance

Follow your instinct... Go, TURBO! s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
depends on the type of performance.
Personally if the turbo has been done even half well, it should be plenty fast.
I'd look to improve your handling. Chassis braces of some kind depending on what you already have.
I agree with Mark, chassis bracing is the way to go.
Oh, and if you get any weird PM's from me, I've mis-typed - we have another member known as mr-s_turbo! s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
Welcome s:D :D s:D
That'll be me then!!!
OK tell us more of this '2 you have bought already turbo'd, what make is it, cooling, management, internals ? That'll help us point you in the right direction to get the most out of it.
bracing is the way to go like the others said - i drove seans car that is braced to the nuts and i was amazed how stable the car was (at 70+ mph on a 90o bend!!!)
Bracing, bracing, bracing. It is the most balanced car on the market and just needs a little front bracing.

Simple. Uprated driver. s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
Cost is approx £120 per day's tuition at North Weald.

Hi
The car is already braced. I am still waiting for it to arrive from Japan at the moment. I have already had driver tuition on the track and many hours expirience on the track. As i used to race my mk1 MR2 before i got rid of it. Pics will be on here as soon as i take delivery of it. s:) :) s:)
get some ICE s:lol: :lol: s:lol: s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Hmmm, a turbo, with bracing. The only things left are to strip everything out of it and then add some go-faster stripes.
And maybe some speed holes!!!
Suspension - lots of choice here, just do a search here. Possibly with the addition of fully adjustable from TTE if there's enough interest.
Brakes - already pretty good, just some better pads for track use (stock overheats rather quickly), see thread in buying/selling by me on Mintex 1144s.
Tyres - tyre choice is critical on these cars. Best see the sticky in the Performance Forum for user comments. S03s or Eagle F1s are popular road tyres, but for track use they will tend to melt in the dry. Yoko Neova's are well respected for track use, but you're limited to the two sizes available which is only practical for the '03 '2s. Finally and totally unproven, but Yoko were raving to me that their new tyre, the A048, would be perfect for track/road use with the same wet performance of a standard road tyre but dry performance close their A032Rs!
