      @@sonacphotos I didn't mean those, natural pops and cracks are fine, my car does it as well. What I mean with 'nowadays' are the modern tiny turbo engines where software and what not create continuous artificial light farts. Sometimes combined with sound through the speaker system to mimic an old school engine (e.g. BMW does that...). That stuff is just lame. No need trying to fake cool, then better go immediately full electric and 100% silent.

And not a chance in hell it's 10plus seconds with four hundred ponies, skipping second I think. Or it was just waiting for the turbo lag to go away and build boost pressure. Maybe set too high with a big turbo and needed time to build to the psi so took longer to hit sixty. My guess anyway...

    OMG!! That's MY old car. It used to run 1.3 bar through that Apexi and a 150 shot of gas. If you look in the boot floor you'll see a couple of pairs of holes from the bottle brackets. I miss that car every day. I remember the first week I had it I went to a dyno day. It only made 268hp but was all over the back of my mates GT4 that made 323hp.
    I guess weight,transmission loss, gearing. With the gas it would step out in the dry at 90. I can't recommend Rev3 + SW20s enough.
    It had a Toms scoop. Not sure if it was taken off.
    I'll post some vids, I've got a few of her.
    Oh and it'll do 60+ in second revving out to 7250. You don't need 3rd.
    Man I miss it. I sold it in 2008. I put new bilsteins and tein top mounts, tints, Short shift kit,Tom's parts, Apexi avcr, Exhaust , polybushes, steel caged gearbox and 6 puk clutch and a wet nitrous kit.

    Had two mr2 mk2's and loved them both with all my heart, first one was a standard one the other was Japanese import rev2 turbo with t-bar then dropped a rev3 engine in it when the rockers blew the 3engine up for some reason

    I miss my MR2! Remember the first time the tail stepped out on me in the rain, my go karting days came back to me pretty quickly. Commitment is so important with the MR2 if you hold back it'll punish you, lift off oversteer is the real danger in these, the nose dips, the back end looses grip and it's going round on you. Do the right thing, stay committed apply opposite lock and keep on the gas and it'll have you smiling all day long!

      So true. Had mine now for 10 years and it's always been good to me. Use the gas to push you through a long sweep, not the brake!

      I'm getting one soon from my brother in law. The snap understeer is what is scaring me. However I've heard if you drive it like a motorbike then you should be OK

      Yes sir, dont let off mid-corner unless a quick U-turn is necessary...and ya wanted it🤔😁. Had a few mk1's and learned on the 1st one thankfully. The MK2 is being built as we speak, only taking it to around 300-350. Cannot wait, some times just stand there looking at it...hearing that turbine build up & then exhaling. Great sounds, bought mine in Georgia and drove back to CO, the wife wasn't always that pleased with my "safe highway" speeds however. Always a good time

    Another sick video! What a car! Everytime I watch one of Jamie's videos tho, I can't help but cringe at the thought that the layby just into that national zone is probably a hot spot for a camera van and I'd be paranoid af! Keep at it Jamie 💪💪🤛🤛

    Very nice car... If that body kit is original its worth a small fortune !!!
    Looks very similar to the guy I bought my Bomex kit off in South London !!!
