GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 Ross, Yeah that's the ones:D Have to speak to a brake expert, even if the rotors fit, have to modify the caliper mounts etc. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/10958-queensland-wasteland/page/1373/#findComment-463364 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb25 Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 this guy was going to buy an R33 gt-r. bad mistake in getting the mr2. its a pile of shite. not entirely - it corners so well, but lacking ALOT of power and the tiptronic is awful.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 I have racing coil-overs (too stiff), front and rear strut braces.

rb25 Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 oohh theyre soooo tempting here. i hit the speed limiter regularly. the m1 between brisbane and the gold coast is awesome. 8 lanes all up. 16 lanes in some places.... but the cops are all over it and its fully covered by cctv.

rb25 Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 id like to get suspension sorted first. i think a car with good suspension and reasonable power will do very well around a track like qld raceway.. have to try and see soon - do a bafore and after comparison.
