mr2 sw20 n/a

do it bitch

>>16616317
i heard good things about the MR2 SW20. even though the snap oversteer thing is bit of a issue, it can be fixed with good tyres

>>16616328
if you make it snap oversteer youre just bad at driving it

>>16616341
from one of my mate's talking about snap oversteer he said this

"fit it with good tyres, dont break during corners and dont drive it like a retard (like trying to drift it)

Subaru engines being a bitch to work on is a meme, excluding spark plugs on DOHC models. Everything else I've done to mine was super easy. IACV, purge valve, alternator, knock sensor, power steering hoses and pump, etc. All of it was easy because it's right on top, not buried anywhere. Spark plugs also aren't a problem on SOHC subies because they're on top of the head instead of on the side by the frame rails.

Since you're in a country with reasonable import restrictions, I'd go for a second gen Legacy GT-B (wagon) or RS-B (sedan). Twin turbocharged, easily tunable 276hp and tail-happy AWD isn't anything to sneeze at. Don't get one with an automatic though, they have an engine with worse heads and less horsepower.

well thats the thing, the meme bit is the spark plugs which requires taking out the engine then putting back in just to replace spark plugs on DOHC

also i cant get turbocharged due to restrictions on being a P plate.

any other recommendations? also i heard that Subarus are expensive to run anyways

>and also im not allowed to choose turbochargers or superchargers due to me being on a P plate

>>16616417

What a load of shit. This is the same kind of bullshit they've been doing to our gun laws in the U.S.

Oops, didn't see that part. They had a regular NA 2.5L 165hp version that looks like the GT-B/RS-B minus the scoop, called the 250T.

You'd probably be better off with something 2WD than AWD since you can't get a turbo though. I'd look into something like an S13, skyline GTS-25, FC RX-7, or even an RX-8, if you can find a clean one that's already had the apex seals replaced.

The AE92 corolla coupe (levin/trueno in japan) is one of my favorite front wheel drives, I'd love to have one with a blacktop 20v 4AGE and ITBs. Sounds amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0g5UOZbV7Z4

im iffy on Silvias but that's because everyone i know drives them like maniacs

im considering getting a R33 Skyline since its good value. i would get either a R32 but that's expensive to maintain or i would get a R34 but only the good one's are the GT-R variants. not to mention they are turbocharged but also AWD

as for the Rotary engines. i cant own one considering they get destroyed due to where i live it has a ass ton of moisture in the enviroment which wrecks apex seals

im considering AEs (post 86) as long it doesnt its below 150xxx kms on the odometer
