nice Greddy supercharger. Smooth and no spike in torque. Good for mid engines.
would like one too...
wonder when will they actually do one for MRS.
well i think we will have to look to US & Europe.

 

[koolspyda]

this Greddy SC will be out for GTS in april-may (according to those inquired). No SC for 1ZZ MRS but TRD has SC for 1ZZ already. (just that cannot fit MRS without.....)

 

[porosaki]

what about the one u mention, bolting on the kit without having to cut the firewall???

 

[MRMIC2]

don't play play, with the offset he was still overtaking every car on the road. *respect*

lol...I was the last car up to Fraser's Hills..explains everything...hehe :)

 

[MRMIC2]

Guys,

I'm currently running 18" rims, 9.5" wide and offset 12.. together with 1" spacer at the back.

I'm thinking of buying two new 18" rims to fit at the rear.. I wan the the rims to be 9.5" wide. And i'm looking for a more offsetted rim to fit to the rear, so that i will not need the spacers.

Wat offset do i need to get?

Thanks

wow..sounds like u need offset 0 or negative offset(or is it positive).
Taevon...nothing beats your super offset...hehe.
Its good to see that a fellow Malaysian(you) building an MR2 that has international statement.Ganbateh kudasai Taevon San!!

what about the one u mention, bolting on the kit without having to cut the firewall???

there are 2 spyders on SC in US (1ZZ). 1 did cut firewall & one is custom fab the changes so that his can fit. the phototype (pix) is now on SC. me thinks it going to be maybe end of this year if he feels it viable to do more.

a good read about MR2 (thru the 3 generations)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_MR-2

it is a common misconception that the MR2 was Lotus designed, but assembled and distrubuted by Toyota. Actually the Lotus M90 (a.k.a. the X100) project was scrapped and Lotus was later bought out by GM. The MR2 was eventually designed by Toyota with Lotus engineer Roger Becker involved on its suspension and handling


the plus point about ZZW30 (MR-S)
.....All agreed, however, that the ZZW30 had nearly perfect handling, allowing one to brake into corners and throw the car through the corner in slight drift. The ZZW30 is considered to be the best-handling MR2.

For example, Tiff Needell, a very experienced race driver and the former host of the BBC TV show Top Gear, praised the handling of the ZZW30. Although some complained of the relative lack of power the vehicle had, many owners have recently discovered a way to switch out the 1ZZ-FE engine in exchange for the 2ZZ-GE, bringing up the power to 190 hp, drastically bringing up the accelerating properties of the ZZW30.

During a comparison test during a Japanese motorsports show, "NA vs. Turbo", the Techno Spirits ZZW30, outdrove several much powerful cars. However, the driver of the ZZW30, Manabu Orido, allowed the other vehicles (a much higher powered S15 Silvia, S14 Silvia, and Amuse S2000) to catch up and ended in the ZZW30 losing to the much quicker S15 Silvia. Although it lost, the ZZW30 proved the top-class handling abilities of the ZZW30.
