I know from my own experience, the time with an empty drive/lean to/garage is torture. I kept telling myself I didn't care, and yet I obviously did care! Enjoy the car over the coming months. You never know what is around the corner

yeah i know, i thought as i was driving along "some coilovers and underbody braces would really make this a right b-road bitch"

but i really shouldn't think like that, can't keep going back and fourth with the MR2 and Supra. must be good and just save up

i think i might be

okay the car has driven perfectly again today, and after fitting the original airbox back on the car has a lot more low end grunt and really does seem to fly along

well a quick update

yep, i still have the MR2 of doom

the itch of going out and trying the new track is getting a bit more irresistible by the day, so time for some quick cheap modding

first off, remember the reoccuring suspension bracket fail like below?

well no more

because we now have this!

3mm plate with triangulation

next on the list are a new rear pair of budget tyres

front discs and pads. and hell, if i have time might sling some stiffer springs and new dampers in

Nice work you not traded this in yet?

Not just yet. the new circuit is way too tempting to change cars at the moment, so i'll be sticking wth this for a few months yet. besides, still saving up for australia so i cant have any juicy motors just yet
