ver 2 MR2 drift/sprint practise @ Barston heath

[theprgamer]

what kind of toaster are you using to film with?

[24okay]

this music so takes me back to the 80's, lol. Where the hell did you find this track?

[dariunas]

SWEET drift run man. Nicely setup MR2 also. Now I have some things to try out in Forza until I have enough to own a nice example of one of these. By the way, kudos on the satin black. Looks almost prototype-ish in a very cool way :D

[ste4334]

am racing there this year in our Mr2 Turbo making 320bhp with 300 lbs of torque should be a laugh

[atleastitsnotcrack]

you make a good point of the chamber! I wear the outside of the front tyres down first when I've been cornering hard there can be hairs sticking out of the outside and wear on the wall but the inside still has a few mm of tread - with standard chamber.

[XtalGameVids]

i have a import 90 2L g-limited na,

ive watched this fair few times and felt horny.

mines old and high mileage but she always runs like a god damn dream.

in reality shes all i can ever aford.

but "is" she is only car i ever lusted after,

and i have her.

serious happy ending :)

[gcon92]

very inspiring music lol

[EddieRockstar]

hii i absolute luv this video im a big fan of mr2's and a proud owner of an mr2 turbo 91

i fell in love with the pic on 2:38

plz send it to me or at least tell me were to find it!! plzz!!

i want to make a poster of it! thanks!

[goodoldjam]

That satin black is pretty cool looking

[veso0ne]

why have u sped up the video to make ur car look faster??

[johnspeedfreak]

i havent. its the poor quality of the video that makes it look that way. to prove it listen to the sound of the silvia in the background. that had a skyline engine in it. it sounds normal.

[ruckuschannel]

Hey man you have simply a good MR2! If you woudn't mind ansering a few ?'s I'd love it. Would you reccomend the MR2 for auto-x? How would you set it up? Can you easily change from auto x setup to drift? I would want it to be do able in under 1 hour! Have you gotten the 3sgte yet? I would like to see that drifted!!!

Drive(drift) on !!!

[testacorsa150]

Brilliant video. Really likes the 80´s power ballad :D

Really interesting for me was the camber settings. I haven´t got an mr2 yet, but lookig into it. Can you tell me how you ajust the camber on yours? (especially at the front)

Do you have ajustable top mounts, or maybe eccentric bolts in the hub?

[johnspeedfreak]

to adjust the camber. the car has k-sport coilovers so at the front i can adjust the top mounts and the two bolts that connect to the hub (one hole is slot so it pivots). not sure of name. at the back its the two bolts on the hub again.

[vietgmac10]

my vid pwns yours =] and im running fatter tires in the rear

[johnspeedfreak]

ok you might be better for now but i will soon catch up. im just fitting a 3sgte which should be running around 280bhp and a new suspension set up. keeping the standard tryes. i will post a new vid when its done and we will let the world decide whos better. lol

[vietgmac10]

cool cool man. so both of us are 5SFE right now? I dont think you need more power, you need a LSD. What tire pressure are you running?  If you need more power, add more pressure instead. Im going 5sfTe. just need to install it. nov 22nd im heading back out to willow springs race track

[johnspeedfreak]

at the mo its got a 3SGE rev1 which is 155bhp. its got a solid diff now. am not going to bother with a lsd yet. very expensive. check out my vid "Toyota mr2 drifting" if youve not seen it, much better vid. as for tire pressure i think in this vid it was about 40psi. not too sure on that. zero camber. what pressure you running?

[vietgmac10]

In america, the NA mr2's are much worse. We have a 5sfe which has 135bhp, which is about 105-109rwhp. Welded diffs are good for drifting! For that run, i believe i was running 32 or 42. I changed to 60 psi.

I have -2.5 camber in front adn -1.7 in the back

[Kisho710]

great driving and vid. but dam did u steal that car from the green bay packers? lol wit the color scheme...  but great driving haha lol.

[johnspeedfreak]

im not sure who green bay packers are but i know what you mean with the paint job. its all getting painted matt black in a couple of weeks which should look alot better

[acentrella3]

Nice drifting, especially difficult with our MR2s. Oh, and extra kudos for the rocky IV workout theme. haha

[karlos400r]

hi, any chance you can email me the specs of the suspension and can i have details on the diff? i want to weld mine up. i could do with every scrap of information you have regarding this!!

cheers mate. love the vid!!

[johnspeedfreak]

maybe abit late but its a stock diff welded solid. its got k-sport coilovers. negative camber at the front. zero maybe postive camber and the rear.

[sleepwalker29]

U also zero out the camber for dragracing, cause the tire has a greater contact patch. I've known all this camber setup for the past 12yrs. Nothing new to me. U might be teaching the 22yr old kids something. LOL

[bordmonkey]

pretty steezy but that was some cheesy music

[onyxaltezza]

what LSD?

[johnspeedfreak]

welded diff (locked) didnt want to buy an lsd because too expensive cheapest i could find was abount 500 quid (pounds)thats same cost as the car
