Thumbs up New Purchase Yeah!!!

Hi guys,

I have just brought this MR2 from Japan. It will be imported over the next few weeks.

http://www.autoadvan.co.uk/sl/index/...s/ref.797-3553

Just wondering what you guys thought to it?

Does this model have a ceramic turbo?

Any comments appreciated!

Cheers

Weaver

Nope, it doesn't have a ceramic turbo....later mkII models have that. I don't particularly care for the body kit (rear skirts are too large and do not look right with the sideskirts or front lip) and how it was installed (screwed in), don't like the bulky outdated 5 star rims, or how it doesn't have matching racing buckets. But for the price and low mileage nice buy. Oh and it'll cost a lil bit to have it meet US requirements.

I suggest getting those screws taken out of the body kit and have it installed the proper way.....A little bit of body work and money will make this 2 look hot n sexy

I like it. Any kind of engine modification? The only thing that's kinda out of place is that huge piece on the rear bumper. I do like that it's a hard top! Very good for rigidity!

No... later models came with the 20b. All jap engines came with ceramic turbines.
