MR2 as track day car?

Recommended Posts

Hi all.

 

Looking to get a track day car for a bit of summer fun, and thought of the MR2 as a candidate.

 

I have been offered an imported turbo, 1991, for £800, and, of course expect to spend a few quid more getting it track ready.

 

Is there anything in particular to watch out for with these, any common issues, as it has no documented service history?

 

Is the cambelt change a fairly straitforward job?

 

Cheers

 

:)

The cambelt is a PITA on them, its doable and depending how good you are you might not find it to much of a hardship.

 

 

They are very back end happy. I see alot of them on ebay with turbo issues, hence the v6 route alot are taking.
