Hello,
With the help from other owners, especially Ben from MR2 Ben and Pieter from the Nederlands, I've made a kind of blog to try to register all the MR Spiders produced by Technocraft in Japan.
Here is the link : http://jhiss.blogspot.fr/p/mr-spider-registery.html
(you can also reach it via www.mr2.fr/spider).
I hope you will like it
If you know any owner (or registration number) who would not be listed here, don't hesitate to let me know about it.
I'd like to find here especially those 2 owners who were at the Gala Day in 2004 :
Reg : R123 BLE
Reg : N664 BNU
Thanks for your help
Ps: As I'm French my english is not always correct, so don't hesitate to tell me about the mistakes I've made. It would be better to have a web page in good English.

There is also a red one in the UK as well, with a cream leather interior. Have only seen it once and never again....
Re: Technocraft MR Spider's registery
Hi Jhiss,
I cannot help finding uk owners but I do have some interesting pics from Japan that are on my computer at home. I will upload them tonight and you can copy them if they help your register?
I'm sure one is a turbo conversion with a removable hardtop.
Thanks, Dan

Are you sure it was an MR Spider and not a Convertible Ferrari replica ? (not based on an MR Spider by the way).
Anyway I'll be interested to know more about it whenever you find any information.

OK thanks a lot.
You can also send them on my e-mail address [email protected] if you want.

All the MR2 used by Technocraft were N/A and none of them had a removable hard top.

But I'm still interested in what you have for me.
It would be interesting if we could have a removable hard top on them. Even if the Spider/Speedster spirit would not be there anymore ..

The looks have changed an once the wheels are back from being refurbed, I'll send some pics over.
Well done for putting this together.

Very good news Happy to know another Spider's owner.
So I made a mistake thinking your car was Mario's old one.
Well, that's one more in the registery then !
I put it from the 1st to the 20th row, waiting for more information about it (=> PM).

Re: Technocraft MR Spider's registery
Apologies it wasn't clear the owner made a hardtop for it.
I've just uploaded the photos into this thread for all to see some may be of use to you:

They are photos I've found on the web some may be owner by people in here or your website/register.

Red color was only available on the latests models (From december 1998 to august 1999). Only 7 were produced in this period of time and they had the Beams engine !

Thanks tonigmr2 !
I've just found it here => http://www.toyota-museum.ch
I had the owner on the phone and he wishes to open his museum next year.
Certainly a good place to go to when it's open

I don't have a copy but I understand that the December 2004 issue of Japanese Performance Magazine has a write up and pics of the Gala Day on pages 110-114. That might be of some assistance. Does anyone on here have one?
Re: Technocraft MR Spider's registery
That particular copy is for sale on eBay at the moment, £6 delivered
