Thanks for the replies :) Don't worry though... it didn't die. I had to replace all 4 wheels, tyres and the rear shocks then sold it and bought an R33 instead :D
Finally I said Greddy right lol. What do you guys think this little beauty? Jordan is going for a turbo change and more power soon so let us know if you want us to revisit her later in the year! Hope you enjoy it lovelies, ML x
These car is gorgeous! Wish you talked about the elephant in the room, just to maybe save some MR2´s on the roads with new drivers. Im talking weight distribution which is ending the MR2 existence. But since im a nice guy i tell you the short version. When you feel you wanna let go of the gas and break because your pushing it to hard, dont! =) Happy MR2íng out there. I like my MR2 W30 as well, nice sunny day driver and kicks ass at small tracks in stock shape.
i think its looks ever so slightly over kill, id have a slightly different wing and lip, but it does look awesome, makes the stock ones look terrible and i bet it would be a lot of fun
@@dylan4972 there arent popular where i live becuase of snappy oversteer and constant rain , and i know becuase i have spun one out twice on roundabouts and watched someone else do the same
Hi Guys First of all Big thanks to ML and Vil for the feature, with additions of "John" for good measure. had a great day blasting through Mexico. Secondly thanks to all you guys, overwhelming love for a motor that I've put a lot of time and money into building. I wanted to build a car that isn't often seen and am so glad I picked the sw20 MR2 turbo. Honestly its one of the most rewarding cars when you nail it, and the snap oversteer thing is just keeping you on your toes. Who wants a car that super easy to drive anyways !? Big plans on a fully forged engine build happening right now along with larger turbo, injectors etc. Aiming for 400bhp. Potential for a re-review once done :) For those asking Ive been fighting in K1 ( Kickboxing / Thai Boxing hybrid ) for a while, but also train and will compete in Brazillain Jiu Jitsu.

Watched this review about 20+ times since the day it came out. Then just go stare at my rusting N/a, dreaming...plotting... waiting. lol Going Speeduino'd 1MZ eventually. But only just noticed you said you had a gsxr today :o) Got a zx9r and had plenty of Supermotos
Hope it's going well, this video made me buy an mr2 😁 went for an N/A for now as I already own one money pit 2.0 turbo but eventually I'll get it to near where this is
Much respect to Jordan for what is in my opinion a seriously tasteful modified 2, and for having the balls to let ML rag it around. Top vid nice to see even more variety fella.
There arn't many left here on the road anymore, but you see them alot on dirt racing tracks. They become pretty expensive over here when they're in good shape haha
My V6 sw20 costs the same amount as a Turbo to insure... The policies here in Australia just make sure that the conversion is engineered/ approved, then they just note that you have a different engine... They don't care if its a 4cyl turbo or a 10cyl supercharged. Registering a car is a different story as there is a displacement per weight of your car... I calculated my sw20 could legally have a 3.6L force induction engine on the road... or something like 5.4L N/A Bahaaha!
My god what a damn good looking MR2 ! This car is a Japanese icon. One of the best cars to leave japan and HIGHLY underrated. Its a little monster it can be a drag car and a track car Love Toyotas !
Barosan Gaming. These aren’t very good first cars. You gotta learn to drive one of these, cause they can be very snappy. A reliable, dailyable car would be a better option.
well worth the wait. loved it, good to see he has knowledge of the car and has taken it to great places who have done their jobs right. As fellow 2 owner props to Jordan.
lovely MR2. Always good to see that there are other people out there who are still enjoying them. I love my tubby and wouldn't part with it for the world, simply a great car, power, looks and always turning heads.
jes.. always loved these cars. deserves so much more credit and attention threw out the years..... hats if to the owner. best 1 I've seen. and am glad somebody is looking after 1 to perfection . beauty mate
Finally someone on UA-cam who made it shine. No stupid rims sticking out of the tires and fenders. No wannabe F and F crap that looks like a suburban 16 year old spend his year's allowance money.
Absolutely gorgeous, almost imported an MR2 GTS-M but changed my mind and went for an RX7 FD.. Awesome vid mate, need to catch up on some of your content missed out!
been away 2months holy shizer it feel good to be back I have missed this channel got some catching up to do that's one car that a lot of ppl sleep on them very clean love it
+MONKY LONDON ur job is my kinda dream job sound stupid but I would love to do what u do some real inspiration brother always showing love and replying to your fans I said it before and will say it again u deserve a lot more sub's we going to the top homie MONKYGANG!
xD this was filmed near where i live :) cant mistake the A26 around Eridge lol nice vid once again, and a very cool car! hopefully i will see it around here some time.
AMBush Drift i picked up a 92 turbo and its not that bad its my first manual car and i picked up on it in less than 2 hours and the nxt morning i was able to run it like i have been practicing for weeks.I have about a week with it and i have stepped on it hard and still no snap oversteer,the car isnt the problem its the drivers who think the street is a dragstrip
Your content is polished man! Nice work. And what a car. Makes me want one. That roundabout scene man.....here in Perth Australia, the police would come knocking just from the footage lol
that is fucking sick. never known too much about the mr2 seen a few growing up and thought they were cool. this just opened my eyes a bit more that's one tasty motor
The suspension work is a huge benefit to any of the MR2 line. All the OEs were set up way too soft. My NA AW11 caught me a couple of times in the wet, but didn't have enough power to get into too much trouble in the dry. The turbo SW20 I had later had the guts, but you had to be on your toes at the end of the slide with the snap of that squishy suspension.
3 mins into the video and I realise that this is an MR2 around my area. The launch you did was on the Eridge Bypass right? Looked familiar then I realised I followed the dude on Instagram and we're in the same MR2 group. See the MR2 drive past my work in the town centre sometimes, very nice.
About the same spec as my tubby but I've gone more show with Lexus discs and willwoods rather than suspension mods. I've just turned 54 and am too frightened to drive it how it wants to be driven. Bought an Xk8 to customize now but I can't bear to part with my Mr2 I might just let my son have the two, it's a young man's car. It's a 91 rev 1 tbar
I don't drift my MR2, I like using it to run the local mountain passes, besides the one time it snap oversteered bc I was going really fuckin quick into a sharp corner, (managed to correct it though) besides that it runs like a dream :)
I love MR2s I used to have a non-turbo 92. I was planning to swap a 1mz, which is a v6 camry engine, and a TRD supercharger. but I owned it at the wrong time. not enough time or money to work on it. great cars but not an average toyota to work on that's for sure.
Greatest King while you're not wrong. those swaps have alot to go into them. the Kseries is a great engine and I owned my mr2 at the time when the 1st kswap mr2 came out on 1320 video I also owned an 8th gen civic at the time. so a k series was very available. BUT that's the beauty of building cars. I wanted a 1mzfe v6 supercharged. think of it as a poor man's Lotus Evora. plus the 1mzfe comes a few cars [rx300,es300,camry,solara]. the beauty is that it was MY mr2 and didn't want a Honda engine in it.
1MZ-fe makes it a totally different car, And I highly recommend the swap! If you like, please follow my 1MZ build, hopefully I'll be adding a turbo sometime this year (:
I used to own 2 MR2 turbos. I tried drifting one of them a few times... now I have 1 MR2 turbo.
Slakbury lol :(
Did you sell one ?
Diamond Octopus #ApexMeister that's metal 🤘
haha
Thanks for the replies :) Don't worry though... it didn't die. I had to replace all 4 wheels, tyres and the rear shocks then sold it and bought an R33 instead :D

MONKY LONDON the way it sounds definitely bought me over. But that body is oh so sexy!
MONKY LONDON Tell him to K swap it!
These car is gorgeous! Wish you talked about the elephant in the room, just to maybe save some MR2´s on the roads with new drivers. Im talking weight distribution which is ending the MR2 existence.

Peder Tjärnberg so your saying there twitchy at the best of times is what I'm gathering here ?
MONKY LONDON definitely notice the camera work and editing on the video. 👍🏻👍🏻
Very smart MR2 a credit to its owner, so many of these cars didn't make it through the Max Power years unscathed.
Gorgeous
MR2's never seem to get any love.
This one looks and sounds the business.
Currently restoring one now that almost got thrown away, It's making an interesting build series thats for sure (:
i think its looks ever so slightly over kill, id have a slightly different wing and lip, but it does look awesome, makes the stock ones look terrible and i bet it would be a lot of fun
dj drastic its unfortunately due to the extreme oversteer at speed due to the chassis layout :///

Beautiful '2. Silly question, but where are you based? I'm in Manchester. My MR2 makes 400+. 👌
Watched this review about 20+ times since the day it came out. Then just go stare at my rusting N/a, dreaming...plotting... waiting. lol Going Speeduino'd 1MZ eventually.
But only just noticed you said you had a gsxr today :o) Got a zx9r and had plenty of Supermotos

Really refreshing to here a passionate owner you has made an effort to be really knowledgeable about his very nice MR2 👌🏻👌🏻
Damn, that mr2 looks and sounds like a beast
agreed did a lovely job
Attainable dream car right here... Perfect example, brilliant review, proper driving, love it!
Much respect to Jordan for what is in my opinion a seriously tasteful modified 2, and for having the balls to let ML rag it around. Top vid nice to see even more variety fella.
I bought my 1991 MR2 last year near London. I took the plane and drove it back home. Now he has Dutch liscenseplates on it :p
x x are there many out there man? Nice yo
There arn't many left here on the road anymore, but you see them alot on dirt racing tracks. They become pretty expensive over here when they're in good shape haha

Nice to see a MR2 been taken care off and worked on. beautiful motor bud. Liked the video Moneky keep em coming
That's one of the cleanest MR2s I think I've ever seen. Don't see them all that often anymore.
These cars are so freaking underrated. I think they should be on the great 90's Japanese unicorn's, list

@@iamspeed31yearsago53 Have you driven one?

Such a beauty of an MR2. Owner did a fantastic job. Everything about it is top drawer. Another sick video from The Monkey. Cheers from California!
well worth the wait. loved it, good to see he has knowledge of the car and has taken it to great places who have done their jobs right. As fellow 2 owner props to Jordan.
big up u guys got audio on point on these videos g, keep it up and man will blow up

that guys seems sound as fuck
Martin Allan deffo man top lad thanks for watching
Thanks for the ride-along. Gotta get one of those bov:s for my 2, sound is absolutely amazing!
SW20 MR2 is my dream car
Beautiful mr2! I used to have a mk 4 supra and an st205 gt4 wrc. Toyotas in the 90's were awsome. Great video.
Your editing and dashcam-shots just make your vids the best, keep it up man!
Sweet video! That BOV sound gave me mad throwbacks to playing Gran Turismo as a kid

Really enjoyed this video, amazing amount of work in this car!
Snap oversteer is scary :(
Rather that than crippling understeer!

Mr. ML havin a blast.Love it! Thanks ML ✌
Would you be interested in featuring a 180+bhp 1400cc n/a Nissan Micra rally car with a dog box and diff?
yeah man message me via the facebook page :)
Your content is polished man! Nice work. And what a car. Makes me want one. That roundabout scene man.....here in Perth Australia, the police would come knocking just from the footage lol
i live in Crowborough near the bypass i wish i would have seen this beast plus we have had 3 mr2s in the family 😂😂
Love the intro music :)
thanks Duncan, I love the end song too super chilled beatzzz
#Earlycrew
Always a good day when Monky London starts it off🙏🏼
that is fucking sick. never known too much about the mr2 seen a few growing up and thought they were cool. this just opened my eyes a bit more that's one tasty motor
awesome to see you do s review on my a opinion one of the most overlooked underrated cars the mr2 great video was enjoyable to watch
Fair play, I'm not a massive MR2 fan to be honest, but that is a real stunner.
This is one of best best looking MR2 I've seen and so tastefully modified. I have a 91 US model with a T bar roof.
The suspension work is a huge benefit to any of the MR2 line. All the OEs were set up way too soft. My NA AW11 caught me a couple of times in the wet, but didn't have enough power to get into too much trouble in the dry. The turbo SW20 I had later had the guts, but you had to be on your toes at the end of the slide with the snap of that squishy suspension.
Always been a fan of these MR2's. Fantastic cars and so much potential. Lovely example chap, top job :)
MR-2, G1 MX-5, AE-86 Corolla... the 3 JDM heroes with pop-ups every car enthusiast needs!
That launch control is badass
I dont think he could have picked a better set of wheels . That looks amazing !
Work Emotions? Couldn't tell for sure.
Will there be a video of that Evo Estate that you saw a while back?
Would love to see that in action and in more detail :)
So lucky to have a 3rd gen mr2. Love the MR2s forsure my favorite car.
ahhh the MR2, the car that introduced me to snap oversteer.
Best looking Mr2 I've seen on youtube actually
Bounced mine through a cow pasture. Bummer, loved that thing. And you know it does have a boot. Get a couple golf bags in it, plus groceries!
wicked review ml!
-jordans bro
tyler whyte nice one Tyler good to briefly meet you, your BMW sounds sick 👊🙊
MONKY LONDON thanks man! let us know if you wanna come make it go sideways haha:p
Yes 3sgte love!!!! - fellow 3sgte owner

@monkylondon you need to put links to the banging tunes you use in the videos! what's the outro beat on this?
Beautiful to see another MR2 in the road! Epic, wish I had launch control behind my v6 sw20 hahaha!
subbed for the driving alone...enjoyed that.
1 my favourite late 80 early 90 cars that still remember been in a mk 1 mr2
Yes! Finally beloved Mr2 Sw20
RaceLine10 about time haha
how much did the car cost with all the work ?
ive had 3 of these over the years. 2 t-tops and a hard top. hard top notibly stiffer. nice... brings back some memories :-)
great video mate !!! I love these mr2s especially turbo ones 😉
Great video!!! MR2s are awesome... and the turbo models a becoming rare!
About the same spec as my tubby but I've gone more show with Lexus discs and willwoods rather than suspension mods. I've just turned 54 and am too frightened to drive it how it wants to be driven. Bought an Xk8 to customize now but I can't bear to part with my Mr2 I might just let my son have the two, it's a young man's car. It's a 91 rev 1 tbar
Only if somehow it can be converted to awd to improve stability and have more of a chance to prevent snap oversteer.
I don't drift my MR2, I like using it to run the local mountain passes, besides the one time it snap oversteered bc I was going really fuckin quick into a sharp corner, (managed to correct it though) besides that it runs like a dream :)
Another great video ML.Haven't watched your videos lately so I'm trying to catch up
I love MR2s I used to have a non-turbo 92. I was planning to swap a 1mz, which is a v6 camry engine, and a TRD supercharger. but I owned it at the wrong time. not enough time or money to work on it. great cars but not an average toyota to work on that's for sure.
Basic Car Guys those cars are better and more reliable with a k20 swap
Greatest King while you're not wrong. those swaps have alot to go into them. the Kseries is a great engine and I owned my mr2 at the time when the 1st kswap mr2 came out on 1320 video I also owned an 8th gen civic at the time. so a k series was very available. BUT that's the beauty of building cars. I wanted a 1mzfe v6 supercharged. think of it as a poor man's Lotus Evora. plus the 1mzfe comes a few cars [rx300,es300,camry,solara]. the beauty is that it was MY mr2 and didn't want a Honda engine in it.
1MZ-fe makes it a totally different car, And I highly recommend the swap! If you like, please follow my 1MZ build, hopefully I'll be adding a turbo sometime this year (:
beautiful car & a top bloke!...cheers ML
nice ride bro! cheers ML!!!
Another epic video, very nom nom, keep it up ML
Sam Shaw cheers Sam much love man
That was refreshing and different. Nice and simple review excellent.
Zango Vu thanks Zango appreciate the feedback
what was the intro music? its chill af
Miitch's Thoughts no diggity vs thrift shop kygo remix
Dude, awesome video.. You need more subs!
If you ever come to Melbourne I have you sorted with cars to film.
The roof panels go in bags behind the seats. There's clips and everything.
Has he got a subwoofer there or something?
Ian Edmonds no space behind corbeau aftermarket seats
was this in and around danehill area? right on my bloody back door 😂😂
Another top review of a brilliant car! What's the outro tune?
The later MR2s had slightly different suspension which supposedly helped make them a bit more predictable.
I love the mr2's styling generally but this is the sexiest one I've seen to date!
right through the intersection can't do that in S. FL
Prettiest MR2 ive ever seen. 👍🏻
I owned a fully forged mr2 tub 350 bhp. Hard to handle and recover if the back end goes. Not a massive fan, sold it within 3 months.
Adam Taylor I think with seat time they are tameable, for sure you need to be on it. Mate of mine had 440hp one was wild
MONKY LONDON in all fairness mate I should of maybe given it more time.
I love the SW20 such a sick car 😍🔥
Nom nom. These videos is why i subscribe. Any plans to have maybe 2 channels? Review and Drift in different channels?
nah man ones enough lol :D Just smash it all out in 1 and you guys can take ya pick :) Maybe in the future, think I'd need two of me
the Caldina Gtt has the 4th gen 3s-gte that makes 260hp stock
This video convinced me to get another mr2. Went and got one a few days later 😃
Lovely car and well styled credit to the owner and great video
Fucking finally a well done Mr2 Can't wait to 3sgte my 5th gen celica later this year XD
ClutchTunez nice man my Mum's got a Celica, ST202 #baller jdm as fuck 1996 she loves it ✌️
The Ferrari 355 style side skirts, completely transform the look of these cars.
sick sick car, always wanted one but have always been scared of the lack of space to put shit in.
monky what's up with the chaser sir is it still being painted great videos keep it up
Brad Russell yeah man, may have to sell it tbh but see what happens do me best to keep ✌️
that would suck sir but you can always do another one some other time can wait to see the new drift car finished
Thats a perfect looking MR2 imo! This really makes me wanna get one!
Very tasteful. I'd go without the carbon on the bonnet but if that's more your style then it's spot on!
I wonder if the 3sgte engine is more fun than a RAV4 v6 na swap 🤔🤔
Turbo is always fun :) but v6 is a great sound too.
Finally a 3SGTE :D that is one sick MR2 with some good amount of coin put into it. Makes me want to buy another one ;p
