Discussion and technical advice the SW20 MR2. 3S-GTE, 3S-GE, 3S-FE etc
Anything and everything to do with maintenance, modifications and electrical is in here for the Mk2.
For the literal amongst us, yes I'm sure someone knows both the car and owner.
However does anyone here know either?
Rightly or wrongly I'm slightly put off due to the location.
Hopefully link will work. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-MR2-GT ... SwFe5X0GjG
Looks like a UK rev5 with the NA engine still in there. Of course no engine pics in the ad.
The guy is also listing a number of crash damaged cars and some parts. It's clearly a trader trying to make a huge profit. Man's gotta eat right?
One of the next mr2 ads that poped up was for a rev 5 with a rev 3 turbo conversion, asking 5k.

It is a nice motor but this car has been on and off ebay many times over the past year, if you google his number you can see he is advertising many damaged cars so is clearly a trader.
If the car ran perfect then i would consider 6k to be reasonable in todays market....

Look awesome, gives the mr2 loads of road presence but may not be the best thing to have if you want to track the car....
Isn't a cheap mod if done properly, ie. not using wheel spacers...
I certainly do like the look and seems to work in that colour too. But I also thought expensive for a UK converted turbo. But if work done properly for conversion and kit still cheaper than getting done.
I fell for a Bradford car once, ended up with new engine and reshelling it. Lesson learned the hard way. LOL
Oh, and stay away from that one as the guy loves his billy bull stories and ripping people off.

So concensus is to stay clear. Confirms what I thought.
Does anyone know how much it would cost to get the abflug kit fitted and sprayed? I know both front and rear arches would need cutting and rears welded after.
