Guest pekwah1 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Hi Guys. I'm new to the forum but thinking about getting a supra. I currently have an mr2 turbo, but thinking of trading in, just starting with an n/a i think, either way has to be manual! Do you think the acceleration of the manual supra will compare to the mr2? Anyway, if anyone knows of or is selling a supra and fancies a trade with a clean mr2, then give me a shout! Regards, Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Welcome An MR2 Turbo will out accelerate most (if not all) NAs. You need a TT. Don't be put off by the auto, it's a fantastic box. However, there's a reason the 6 speed TT commands a premium. Good luck with the search, quite a few ex-MR2 tubby owners on here - me included.

Scooter Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 You do to go faster than an MR2 turbo stock rev 1 or 2 and there's not much in it, but then as with the tt's very few mr2 turbo's stay stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pekwah1 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 thanks for the replies. My mr2 is a fairly stock rev2. To be clear, i'm not looking for something that will 'beat' the mr2, i just want something that is at least fairly close. Outright acceleration is not imperative, but i want to be able to keep up with my mates in their silva, elise, m3 etc. The mr2 does fine with this job, even if the supra was slightly slower, as long as there's not too much in it then thats fine! As for a turbo supra, i simply can't afford! As for manual, it's manual or nothing, i'm not a huge fan of autos, plus i like a clutch, can't heel and toe without one! :op Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
