alright i have a 91 Gta that is pretty much stock except for like drilled cats and a tremac tranny with an up graded clutch my friend wants to race in his 95 or 94 Toyota MR2. and i dont think he can beat me, it is a turbo though. What do you think

TYLER

 

He should be *** for a high 14, 14.6-14.9 if he can drive. You should probably win, with the stick.

 

My money would be on you.

...But look at it this way, if you do loose that just gives you an excuse to mod it some more.

these numbers are from cars.com
2900 pound car
200 hp @ 6000rpm
200 ft/lbs @ 3200 rpm

id say its a 15.0 for this car.

btw, i hope this freind is a girl. guys look say gay driving girl cars:lala: :lala:

 

is it the N/A model or the turbo model?

 

stock vs stock you should win

but $$ vs $$ for mods he would win

that is the probem with turbo cars
just way too easy to put mods to

 

that's why i'm going turbo

 

I thought the MR2s were supercharged?? I could be wrong though.

 

they can come with a S/C, turbo, or N/A

 

I think it was just the MK1 MR2s that had the supercharge option.

I should be going out tonight putting my newly modded IROC upagainst a friends MR2. No contest, we both know, but it will be interesting to see the difference.

Guys:

The MK1 MR2 was the only one to have the supercharged engine. It was only available in certain countries and gave the little thing a lot more torque, though still not horrendously high horsepower figures. These little cars apparently handle extremely well due to their low weight. In fact, at the time the road tests reported them as handling better than the Ferrari 308/328.

The MK2 MR2 (the curvy styled MR2 produced in the 90's) were mostly all naturally aspirated. Turbocharging was an option, notably in the USA and Japan, though not in the UK. In stock trim the turbocharged variant does ~14.7 in the quarter mile.

If anyone wants more hp/torque/performance figures for these cars then let me know. I just can't remember them all off hand.

Later!

Nice to see you posting, don't want to become a spectator now do we?

Anyway, I'm leaning out on top end hence why I feel the car is slower. I'm getting my new MAF in a couple of weeks which should sort that problem out. Then it's just the intake that needs dealt with.


Oh yeah back to the topic, did you rce that mr2? What was the outcome? Let us know.

Robert
