[godigy]

A MR2 or an Miata?

Have fun trying to drift the MR2... (It's hard to drift)

I'd drift with the miata, but I would use the MR2 to run the mountain.

[godigy]

opps, what I meant is what car is better on the touge, the mr2(2nd gen of course) or the miata?

[flamingheads]

MR2 Theyd grip pretty well. My friends looking at getting one.

[spiritofFC3s]

i'd go with the miata just because i've driven it and know how it drives

[Spy001]

well according to theory, the mr2 is the more sound choice.

I like the way Miata's drive... they've got a very good stock suspension. That would be my choice, a mostly stock Miata, with a few modifications to increase engine response and most likely just sway bars with urethane bushings, as well as upper pillow ball mounts. I think that'd be a great ride for the touge.

Miata. I hate the way the MR2 Snaps

1994 Miata on 15x7 Volk TE37s with some 195/55 Yokohama AVS ES100s, Advance Design coilovers, Flying Miata front anti-roll bar, FM U2 supercharger system, Racing Beat end links, super pro master bushing set, KAAZ 1.5-way LSD, Sparco Evo, Sparco four-point harness, Axxis Ultimate brake pads, and a Hard Dog roll cage.

1994 MR2 Turbo on 16x7 Volk TE37s with pillowball tension rods, KAAZ 1.5-way LSD, Cusco strut tower braces, Cusco Zero-2R coilovers, Sparco Evo, Sparco four-point, and Axxis Ultimate pads.

I'd actually rather drive the Miata... touge is inherently dangerous and I'd like the car to be as progressive as possible.

I would choose the miata becuase it handles better and is lighter, also becuase i have one

well the MR2 is a midmotor so it will not drift as well but the miata is FR so it will drift better

[kaitokid21]

[MarshallMX5]

For drift as well as everything else: Miata
