At the time, I was told it was a common problem with the car and that everyone reinforced them when switching bars.
Thanks for the advice. What was your overall opinion on your MR2 during your ownership? How are you liking the Spyder? I've never driven one, but I've always wanted to. I still remember this article from SCC and being impressed by the platform.

I've read online that rust was an issue with the SW20, I'm not sure if that's true or not. There are a couple small spots of surface rust on mine that I need to take care of ASAP.

I'm in the process of moving so I've been busy, but I finally got around to cleaning up the car a little. The tires all needed air and the driver's seat bolts needed tightening. The engine is healthy, but I'm thinking of running a bottle of Seafoam in the car. Anyone have opinions on that stuff? The interior cleaned up really well. I have always been a sucker for blue interiors. If I ever bought a new GTO or S2000 it would need to have blue interior.
