As opposed to how it handles sitting and not moving? lol Welcome Adam. Good luck on finding a '93, they do get more rare after '92. But it shouldn't be too hard if you keep an eye out. |

Hey there, welcome to the board. We have a growing number of people from PA, although I have no clue where Yardley is, I am from Danville.

Welcome, was there a reason you wanted the 93' because of the suspension changes done? What is your goals/planns for a future mr2?

If by "problems" you mean inexperianced drivers crashing them, then I guess the '91/'92's more touchy suspension would be a problem.
However, aside from some electrical differences, minor suspension changes, and some cosmetic changes, the two cars are basicaly identical. |

Ohh so that's the only big deal is the suspension!! Does anyone know how much a 92 weighs? I guess i'll shoot for a 92 then. lol.

Well depends on what your really find, as from 91-95 every year up got rarer than the last, you will find a lot more 91's than 92's and theres nothing really anything changed, unless your going for 94+.
93+ have suspension midifications, oversteer understeer thing, and 93 turbos got lsd and its and electonic rather than 91's and 92's (more expensive though) And ill bet you youll find a mr2 there, pretty easy to get in PA |

Ohh yeah the lsd. I might want to rock one with it. I've never had an lsd before. Just open diffs. Would be cool. I don't think i'll have a problem finding a MR2 turbo. Im actually about 30 min from philly and 5 min from trenton. Im right by where I-95 crosses the Delaware river into jersey.
