The Red Beast is for sale... I've owned the car for several years now, and as most of you have seen, spent a small mortgage on it, but the time has come for it to go. I'll be sad to sell it, but needs must, and I feel the time for a little more practicality has come. I have recently got engaged, and have a new family to consider. An Mr2 like mine is a complete indulgence, and one that I have had the pleasure of for some time, but my new family comes first. A new fuel system is shortly to be fitted, allowing 2.2 bar of boost to be run. This should see the motor make well over 600+ bhp on C16 race fuel. Current power output: 465 fwhp @ 7200 360 ft/lb @ 5200 Running just 1 bar of boost (on Tesco 99 octane fuel). Quarter mile of 12.44 @ 111 on Toyo T1-R's. The car is capable of low 11's, possibly even 10's. The dyno readout was taken when the older GT3071 turbo and 870cc injectors were fitted. It has since been fitted with a GT3582R and 1000cc injectors, and re-mapped by Dave Rowe. {} {} {} {} {} The spec is as follows: *deep breath* Short Block Assembly JE 86mm forged pistons Eagle H beam con rods Standard 3S-GTE crankshaft (Nitrided, reground & balanced) Clevite 77 race bearings (Big End) Clevite 77 race bearings (Mains) Clevite 77 race bearings (Thrust) ARP head studs High flow oil pump High flow water pump TRD oil filter Front engine mount poly inserts Cylinder Head Modified Rev 2 cylinder head (ported & flowed by Mick Gain) Ferrea 1mm oversize inlet & exhaust valves Cometic 1.2 mm head gasket Piper 264 cams (inlet & exhaust) Piper valve spring collars Modified lifters Fidanza vernier cam gears HKS 3S-GTE Valve Springs Kevlar cam belt Intake/Exhaust APEX'i 4 inch Power Intake TB Developments/Garrett GT3582R turbo (.63 ar exhaust) ATS Racing stainless downpipe Tial 46mm external wategate Ross Machine Racing inlet manifold HKS Super Sequential BOV Berk Technology Exhaust Fuel System Delphi 96lb/hr 1000cc top feed injectors Wolfkatz top feed fuel rail Walbro 255lts/hr in-tank performance fuel pump Ignition Magnecor KV85 ignition leads Motec M400 Pro ECU with launch control & data logging facility Mapping by Dave Rowe of MoTeC Europe Clutch/Transmission Gear linkage roller bearing bushes Revision 2 transmission with TRD plate type LSD SPEC 480ft/LBS clutch Fidanza alloy flywheel ARP flywheel bolts Cooling Radtech/Rogue charge cooler Revision6 engine bay dual cooling fan kit Samco hose kit TRD coolant cap TRD thermostat Misc GReddy oil catch tank Silkolene Pro S 10 w 50 engine oil Air conditioning unit removed Chassis Polyflex Bushes - Everywhere!

Dave Rowe of MoTeC commented the last time the car was mapped, "It's not even trying yet..." Offers in the region of £13k, or a part exchange with a 1998+ Honda Intagra DC2 (plus cash).
