Porsche is starting to utilize 4WD quite well in their new 911 Turbo (991). They've even put a 4 wheel steering into it. R35's 4WD system is also very intelligent and complex.

There are a few front mid engine. Viper is one of those that I know. I've just checked wiki, it seems that 350Z, 370Z, RX-7 and RX-8 are categorized as front mid also.



We use to have a Gemballa Mirage GT at KL which is a modified version of Carrera GT. From some people, I've heard that the owner sold it off because it is too difficult to control. Imagine, further modifying and increasing the power of Carrera GT which is already difficult to control in stock form. :adore:



Ferrari had a lot of high power MR layout cars too but I don't really hear much complaints about Ferrari being very difficult to handle. Or they are just very good at making MR layout cars.



MR2 NA or MR2 Turbo? If is turbo, that 3S-GTE had potential to reach over 400hp or 500hp. Crazy output in such a lightweight car.

I think every media sources already confirmed that he passed away isn't it. I think it is better to use the word pass away as it sounds better than calling him dead.
The one I sat in is the MRS W30. Only 1.8 litre.
Spyder version(soft top). Only exhaust mod I think.
W20 has the 3SGTE.
As quoted in WIki.

He is.

Oh, MR-S/MR2 Spyder. Manual or auto? This one is a bit 'slow' compared to SW20.

SW20 MR2 GT-S had more power than MR-S. Quite a big power difference gap.



I mentioned that earlier too. There is no absolute traction.
I drove the earlier model before which belongs to a friend's brother. 1.6 NA only which is really under powered for a mid rear engine car. The super charged version would have been great.

Yup, you are right. MR-S may be light but totally no match for the SW20 with 3SGTE in terms of power. MR2 is not that heavy either even though MRS is lighter. Unless comparing with 3SGE may be some challenge there.

Using 1ZZ-FE as well just that is 1ZZ-FED. Some adi transplant the 2ZZ-GE in MRS....can't imagine the power in such a light car. :love:

Turbocharged 3S-GTE can easily gain a lot of power by changing turbine whereas the 1ZZ-FED can't really gain that much of power through the NA way. 140hp only, even weaker than 4A-GE.

Meaning that modern Ferrari is more of a computerized car to aid the driver than relying on pure driver skill alone.

138HP only for 1ZZFED. 1ZZFE at 136hp.

Needless to say. I was smoked by friend SEG with 4AGE blacktop. Totally no match and yet his is Auto too.
