You, sir, are a master craftsman. This MR2 is beautiful, so well done. Keep the project going! Fix all the minor little things now and bring it up to 100% perfection.
Ive been wanting to get an MR2 to do a full build that more on my budget. Literally want APR kit and 2zz turbo were my goals. Your car just solidified that. This thing is clean
Holy shit glad you came back from a coma, don't even know you but really happy for you man. Really nice mr2 and I miss mine, this quarantine sucks dude
What a wild build! You should search for how to fix the soft top ears, they’re sticking out on yours and not allowing the soft top to sit down fully flush. It’s a strap or two that tugs those ears in so they don’t stick out like that anymore.
Looks like he did a good job on the car. A little too flashy for my taste but definitely put a lot of time in to this project and it shows. Well done sir, glad you are in better health now too.
Nice looking spyder man. I'm a aw11 enthusiast and owner for the last 26 years, still own the one I first bought in april 1995. Picking up a spyder for a play with soon, want to see if they handle as wellas they say. Best of luck with your health man. Spent 3 months in a coma 99/00 with kidney failure, pneumonia and legioneres disease. They were going to turn the life support machne off twice. I made it out somehow, have had a kidney transplant for the last 19 1/2 years and still love my aw11's and racing them.
That’s a beautiful little yota. Tip for you, and other modders, install your lights on a dry hot day. If that does not happen where you reside, hot glue some silica packets in the headlamps but away from the bulbs. Take them in a few months. Should absorb the moisture.
I love the job you have done on your car! It looks GREAT! I'm alsov glad your experience with mwr's service was better than mine. I have a jdm k20A swapped spyder and love it. Keep the content on this build coming.
What's not to like about this beautiful built MR2......I have a 99 Porsche boxster and I like it a lot but I have also always wanted to build me a nice 3rd gen MR2 Spyder with a 1ZZ turbo setup.
Totally agree....Where he said he wanted it would not look as good as where it is now.....Being on the side of the license plate is the perfect location to me.
This body kit and color scheme is amazing, I literally want to do exactly what you did here minus the motor swap. Thanks for mentioning the Facebook group too
Love the build! I’m sad that I missed it at the last DFW MR2 meet since I was in Florida at the time. Hoping to catch you at the next meet in my spyder!
@@mr2mods931 Yall DFW? I'm in Shreveport, when's the next one? Maybe I can schedule a proper dyno-tune with Jotech the same weekend and make it worth the trip!
Dang dude! I hope you are doing well. I've got a 2001 Spyder that I'd like to have someone do a swap for me because I'm not qualified. I just don't know what kind of money I'd be looking at and would it actually be worth it.
Nice, did you lower the compression or sleeve it? Also what psi of boost your running? 93 octane or E85? Also any quarter mile or 0-60 times yet? I'm thinking of getting the same body kit and going all back, do you think 16x8.5" with meaty tires would sit near flush? (I know that question is hard to answer, who knows till you try it right lol.) I love it, love the paint scheme I've honestly debated building mine to look just like that but finally settled on all black. Also that roll bar looks almost factory the way it's integrated into the plastic, is that custom or can you find them? Lot of questions sorry, just answer whatever you feel like answering and kudos on the car you did a bang up job. I'm looking forward to turboing mine but I recently realized I'll be swapping lower compression pistons and I can't put those in from the bottom because the piston rings need to be compressed and I think I'll have to take the intake off to get the head off and that means dropping the engine again....something I wanted to avoid since I cross threaded the top right engine mount and just barely got it on after thread restoration. I doubt it'll go back on again and that means grinding out and welding in a new engine mount, and welding sheet metal is not my thing lol.
I havent timed my 0-60 yet, its not sleeved though. Monkey wrench is a great resource, I am on the MR2 Spyder facebook group if you want to message me on there it will be easier to go over things :)
Love everything about the car wish I could do the same except for the color I don't like to stand out that much 😉 I've got a 2zz spyder just getting my hardtop soon. Interesting how you found the 285hp good enough nice to know chee
Thanks, I am sure that one day I will want more, may do rods and go to 350hp but it smokes moat cars I have lined it up with so far and can get a little scary as is.
im 17 trying to find one with work done already can anybody help me find one with a wide body type style price doesnt matter just the only car i want rn if anybody can help

You can buy my 2zz turbo. ;)

Well done to you. 👏🏻👏🏻

Thanks man, it's been a battle still fighting it but I'm mostly back to normal just memory issues..

sorry about ur luck with people I went through some shady people with building my car glad to see u didn't give up amazing car great work.
Nice info and car! I like seeing videos like this that show all of the different parts of the car and not just the "photo shoot" angles.

Finally a perfect size and height wing on mr-s!!!!!
YES! This is a nice Spyder you got here. Love the car!

How much did it cost you man

Wow, it's like looking into a dream
Nice car man! I hope you always be healthy and happy with your family and everything you love!
This is gorgeous. If I didn’t have my s2000 or Miata and or if I had room, would love to own one myself.
Man a lot of shit happened to you during your built, god bless you and you should be proud of your build, it’s gorgeous. 🙏
Nice street car, awesome build!
That rear bumper exit exhaust and grill set up is lit!

MR2 mods 🤦♂️sorry to hear that. Hope you get it back running soon
beautiful build man. just amazing looking car
compared to the monocraft gt300, I wonder which one "fit worse" out of the box. Im kinda sad to see how messed up this one sounds like it got to you.
Went all out! Love it!
looks amazing! what is the color? I am restoring a spyder currently
Car is fucking beautiful dude
Hello Sir,
Great job!
can you please tell me where did you buy the door mirrors? Thank you
Great mods and great job. Hope your health is still good so that you can continue to enjoy your car. ;)
Beautiful build
Best MR2 on UA-cam.
Car looks great. Where did you get that nice roll bar? Please take care of your heart.
Car looks awesome. That's quite a story :)
I'm loving this build! gives me motivation to build mine. Mind if i ask were you got your center console?
Ebay, but quite a while back
just saw it sitting somewhere for awhile. just wondering if you still own it ?
Great job, she looks sweet!!
It looks awesome 🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍👏👏👏
Love the build brother! keep up the good work :) bless up!
Remember folks this car is about as small as the Miata if not the same size, it can be deceiving just from video point of view
Great job, Im currently building an MR-2 Spyder but going for a more an OEM+ theme.
nice built. what's the size of the intercooler?
nice build man
Nice work bro....looks amazing!
Enjoying!
how much was the body kit and where can i get one like that ?
Dang dude! I hope you are doing well. I've got a 2001 Spyder that I'd like to have someone do a swap for me because I'm not qualified. I just don't know what kind of money I'd be looking at and would it actually be worth it.
this is 2zz goals!!
if that was in black or red that would be amazing
could u put some spacers on it? think u could go a bit wider on the stance. or will it rub?
Great built!
Thanks!

My dream car
Where you buy bumper and where you done seat and center console ?
Hi where did you source your soft top...?? What material is it also..?
What Transmission are you running with it?
That’s sick like it
What is the name of the MR2 Spyder group page you used for information
Ik that I came to see the cool project car but are you fine after your health problems bro?
Love everything about the car wish I could do the same except for the color I don't like to stand out that much 😉 I've got a 2zz spyder just getting my hardtop soon. Interesting how you found the 285hp good enough nice to know chee

Where have you relocated the battery and how did you do it?
Cheers.
What is the max tire width can you run in front and back??
Hello, realy nice work. You made the Fitting by yourself ? Just aksing, heard the fitting of the APR widebody is nearly like making a new one^^
Love your channel name
Whereabouts in TX are you? I've got a 2003 MR2 with a few mods in SA.
How can I build a reliable 2zz Turbo? I want something that can last 100k miles! Thank God you are okay brother!!!!!!!
Very smart (I have a bog standard FL car). I do need you to sort out those 'ears' on your soft top though, just for my own OCD. LOL!
Nice car
What is that rear bonnet vent kit ropee racing ?
Do you know where the cup holder part came from in the centre console thing? It looks awesome
Ebay, its small though holds cans not much more..
@@mr2mods931 smaller than the ones it replaces?
@@DildosForChristmas
Honestly I dont know, but you cant put a coffee from Starbucks in it so pretty small..
@@mr2mods931 thanks for the reply!
nice car
Where'd you get the leather from ?
what's your side mirror?
Goood design
Where did u get the body kit?
Where did you get those carbon fiber interior part?
Like your car
LOL you literally went to hell n back building this car
Yeah, ypu could say that 😁
How long did it take and how much did it cost to do only the body kit part?
A long time lol
$4000 but insurance paid for some since I got backed into 😀
What is the rear wing?
👏👏
Stock block or?
Where did you get the hood latches?
I have a deleted rear seat cubby and a custom 8" sub enclosure.
And i think if you use a heat gun or a blow dryer you could probably eliminate those wrinkles on the seats.
im 17 trying to find one with work done already can anybody help me find one with a wide body type style price doesnt matter just the only car i want rn if anybody can help
Do you still have any of those knobs for sale? Ill buy some right now! If you have a set of all plain ones ill take em!
I believe I have 1 set left. $60 will get them to you if you are in the USA. Let me know
Yep im in ohio just let me know how to buy them! Do you do paypal or do you have a website?
Texas?
God bless
By your breathing I'd say you have obstructive sleep apnea which can cause heart problems. I would definitely look into a sleep study/CPAP.
I've had 275whp and now have 375whp in mine. 275whp is under powered, especially in a widebody. I have lsd though.
