But if ripping the ebrake is your idea of getting a car to correct its path mid corner, then we are talking on different levels here. Try cornering normally with the MR-S, its just fine. The engine over the back requires you to adjust your driving style, if you start flinging it around like a civic/miata (picked those two since they are similar size but different drivetrain setups) then yea the MR-S is going to spin. Every time I’ve driven one you can use the engine in the back to your advantage, faster rotation and it has the weight over the drive wheels already so traction is less of a issue (not that it has alot of power to spin the wheels anyways). > > We just mentioned 2 engine swaps in this thread alone. I’ve seen boosted ones before. You can buy coilovers, wheels, etc for them. What else do you need 😕 Again not defending the MR-S, but they aren’t terrible either. actually there are 3 engine swaps: 2zz, whatever the camry v6 is, and the k20. you can even boost the stock engine and make a good amount of power from it, without harming it too much. and i have found out that there is a guy, Che, who makes exact replica PPE parts i believe, or some pretty reputable performance brand, and they are high quality for about a third of the price. i am actually leaning towards this car again because there are many options for it, and it can be a fun little car. still an upgrade from my prelude. I appreciate everyones opinions. im going to keep doing some research --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/mr2-spyder/198056)._
