There was even one at the last Nats!

Brian Terry is doing one - viewtopic.php?f=27&t=10390

Not sure how Group B it is, but you do not see many MR2 rally cars at all

Not quite the same but based on the 222D idea. It would have been interesting to see these compete and then see how the Group S cars were.

Brian is using a NA 2ZZ, cool bit of kit he has created. Rear claim shell, and body parts.
KIDFRE, is a "true NZ build" 222D.

Our Future Ride. Full 222D Fibreglass Body kit built by Wim Hapers in Belgium before he had to sell most of his gear. likely to be the 2zz Turbo again. major work to get road legal for rallying. donor body shell is hanging in the shed (actually) may use about 1/4 of the body.
thinking about going down the AP4 suspension route.

Before i Forget, they where designed to run in Group S, that was meant to be the successor to Grp B. Then Killer B's happened:(
