Nice car !
Phil would you pay £20,000 for it?
The I want thread.... - FirebirdPhil - 14-01-2018
no but if I was to keep my Lex I would buy a 600BHP MR2 and steel its engine to put in to mine!!

yeah nice car and all that. Big respect for the awesome work that has gone into it but surely..........
that is TOO MUCH POWER (what am I saying?) for a little MR2? Its got little 17" wheels and will probably spend most its life wheel spinning when you touch the accelerator or its got so much lag its power band is 5k - 7krpm and then thats it. Would love to see the dyno graphs to be proven wrong however. My mate had an MR2 turbo a few years back with about 250bhp and even that would constantly wheel spin - it just didn't have the grip! Goodness know how it handles that much power.
And also being pedantic for a minute - I wouldn't get a car with 700bhp/826bhp and no airbag. Being impaled on the steering wheel does not sound nice.

buddyclub exhaust? Urm Phil did you not hear John's Mr2 when he borrowed the Buddy Club from Luke at Pacific Works?
You would need shares in hospital donor ear drums if you have that zorst :p

no i didn't hear his 'zorst, bit did hear it was loud!!
Our MR2 has something like 250bhp, and is not a wheel spinning machine, but the wheels are very wide at the back so has lots of grip!! MR2's over 400BHP struggle to get power down!!

All I am saying is that sometimes you can ruin a great car by going for too much power - god I sound like James May! :blushing::blushing::blushing:
An MR2 with around your level of power sounds perfect mate. I think the one my friend had had some poor tyres on it too.
