MR2 CONTENT BABY!!! LETS GO
LETSSSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🗿
That fitment is incredible. That is probably the best job I've seen in quite some time.
APR makes some pretty impressive parts. And you pay top dollar for it 😂
The bodyshop is where u will get that massaging till its near perfection.
The power of being filmed by a YT channel with over 1M eyes on your shop.
Really? The panels still seem a bit crooked at some corners.
@@eduardvandijk3431 Some people have a tendency to exaggerate. Just have a look at 12:12 and 12:20.
Good to see Marc in the video! Excited to see how the CaMR-Sy is going to fair against the 2023 GLTC field. Lots of vettes this year and the perennial K-powered contenders.
This against Mia will be an interesting race. 2 tiny 2wd cars with twice the power they came with and a ton of aero.
The joy you bring to a LOT of us every saturday morning is priceless. When you feel like "This is just content for YT", let me remind you: Your art lights up and upbrings lives! Thank you GG!
Big Ben's MR2 is slowly turning into a Porsche
Funny story this reminded me of. I used to have a neighbor who owned an MR2 Spyder. Of which, he replaced all the Toyota badging with Porche ones. And because there weren't many car enthusiasts around here, most people took it at face value, which I found hilarious.
😂
Porsche killer*
This is mid engine so more like a Lotus
A worse Porsche
That cage work is absolutely beautiful. That body kit tho...oof. At least you can fit the wheel size you need.
Really did not expect you to go the direction you have with the MR2 but I'm loving it.
The engineering on the cage fabrication is amazing. Came a long way with tech yet he’s still on top of his work to make the perfect cage 💯
Also great video from GG yet again, I always look forward to these Saturday drops
I know right. Don't judge a fabricator by their garage sign. Impressive stuff.
Makes me happy to see all those kids in that shop KICKN ASS!!!!thank you.for the hope...
13:03 Ben be double cheeked up on a Sunday afternoon 🥵😂
So cool seeing you and Ben last week. The car really rips around the track. Can't wait to see more content.
Hell yeah! Good to see the mr2 back on the screen!
The key to a successful project car is to have tons of extremely talented and generous buds.
As a technician who doesn’t look at his phone but will auto play UA-cam videos, your background music mixed with various mechanical noises is like going to a spa for me. Please don’t let up on it
I love how much effort you put in the mr2! Keep it up ❤
Ben waiting on the return of the MR2. I don't run one but to me the MR2 is the Japanese 914 or 550 spider. The perfect grown-up go-cart.
Solid production gold. I think we would all really dig some longer form content. Much love guys!
Oh wow this is so awesome! Can not put into words how hyped I am for this
Always a better day when you guys post a new video and seeing Marc pop up was a pleasant surprise 👍 can't wait to see what you two have planned
I absolutely cannot wait to see this painted/wrapped
This build is an inspiration! Love this series!
We love mr2 content 🙌🙌
Simply fantastic
Yesssssss. Always wanted a proper build with the MR2!
Jeez I'm needing episode 2 like a fiend, already loving this series.
Great episode and always so good to see Marc in any content. Love his character and jokes and professionalism in his work.
I like how G&G takes the time to showcase the shops that help them build their cars. I've noticed over the past 5-6 years they do that. We need more of this type of "give credit were credit is due" in the automotive industry. Whether its the shop that helps them weld in cages, or Ronnie who built the 4G63, Andy with ASM & the K20 build, or the guy in VA/Maryland (forgot his name) who dyno tuned the MR2. Its a good showcase of the shops skills & moves the auto industry forward.
it needs a big WANGGG
Mr2 look dope with a kit 👌
Nice kit! Great video guys!
Mr2 spyders look great with a low profile spoiler. Also Ben should do something about the chicken wire vents on the body kit (paint black?)
Really feeling the Hot Version MR-S vibes on this one!
Here i am struggling to get an ac powersteering civic ferio kswap build in north america and you guys putting porsche gt3 money into an old mr2. Fantastic work pushing forward innovation on this platform and staying true to the brands heart. Much luck and thanks for the content!
Can't wait to see what color the wrap is going to be!
Oh shit! As soon as you see Marc you know its about to get crazy.
ART
wow, that is a massive improvement. very nice
As a widebody MRS owner myself, this was amazing to watch. I don't have the same kit but love seeing the quality of yours.
Need MORE MR2/Marc content and Colabs! ❤
MR2 madness yes!
Fun to watch Rich and Kal working together! Artists
Yay, Marc is back!
Yaaaaa!!!!! This is sweet!!!
Big Ben !! Nice change from the Evo .
Look insane 🔥🔥🔥
Lets go love the mr2 and frankensteinmotors
Heck yeah Marc is back!
Oh man, can't wait to see you both side by side in a GLTC race!
I know making these videos are alot of work but man it still looks like fun. Great shit as usual dudes.
can't wait for another episode of this series, been waiting for the mr2 to hit the track in its finished form
At 5:30 when they are just standing in a box talking to to each other. That reminded me of SpongeBob and Patric😂
sick looking piece of machinery!
The cosmetics seem to have fit well which was shocking,but that cage is epic! I can't wait to see more,please G&G keep them coming
Woooo!!
Love it
you guys are nuts and i love it. just found a stage 2 bumper for my baby
FINALLY!!!
Such a high tech roll cage 😮
Always awesome seeing my boy artsem doing his artwork.. Cage he built for my E46 is topnotch
Have a red Apr mr2 spyder turbo and it totally transforms car to standard looking to Ferrari beauty. It will look amazing once it’s done. Also don’t forget to use the Apr carbon splitters as it’s icing on the cake.
The wide-body will help, since it lets you safely run wider tires, which should help a lot with both keeping it steady in corners and also with braking performance.
I’m keeping hope for the vision but I can’t help but think it’s ugly rn 😂😂😂 can’t wait for more
The cage is awesome and that kit looks good, the wheels and height is pretty funny 😂
My favorite build on the channel
FINALLY MR2 CONTENTTTTTTT
Marc is the best I love his character!
YES!!!!!! MORE MARC!
I’ve been waiting so long to see this kind of content great stuff
Shoutout to Marc 💪
Let’s go Marc!!
I do agree that the MRS is under appreciated. I don't know why when unironically it is almost ready to track out the box, AND LOOKS GOOD, these goobers who say it looks lame can suck it. These cars are absolute BEASTS, balance it great for a mid engine, light as shit, small wheel base (which would make you think its snappier but nah she a beast), and lastly, the 1ZZ is a good ass engine that can take one heck of a beating and its simple to modify on top of that. If I didnt already spend my life savings and left kidney on my old 86 I wouldve gone with the MRS in a heart beat.
Kei car for "wide bodies" :) Seriously though this is a welcome build and car that is on my bucket list for no reason other than I like the idea of the MR2 Spyder.
4:31 I can't tell if Kal is tiny or if that's just what happens when a normal man stands next to Ben
I had a W30, I loved it.
best offroad channel on youtube
looking at an mr2 this weekend such a sick car hope its good enough to buy it
I saw you guys with the mr2 in Wisconsin at a kwik trip and was wondering where you were going lol, that explains it
It’s going to look so good once it’s on a good set of wheels and tires and wrapped
❤️❤️❤️❤️
theres a bodykit that makes them look like a mini carrera gt, that would've been funny to see around a track
That body kit is giving me some nfs underground vibes and i love it.
I had a really good laugh when you transitioned to the car being finished 😆 I know it's not done but hilarious. I can't wait to see it lowered with some appropriate wheel! 🔥
👌👌👌
Oh my god those after shots are hilarious. I’m sure it’ll come together well though.
Huzzah for Mr. Two!!!
not the widebody kit i would've chose tbh but hey if your happy with it bro!
I was considering selling my MR2.. but this got me excited to build mine again!
More mr2 content! More Marc!! LFG!!!
The return of Frankenstein motor works!!!! Great episode. This car is going to be sick!!!
I love my mr2 man, its just such a fun car. Every time i see mr2 content on the channel it warms my heart hahaha. Hopefully you are enjoying the car as much as i enjoy my stock car :')
Saludos desde cd Juárez Chihuahua México
This car would be crazy if you did a v6 3.5 GR engine swap from the camry or even a cheap rav4 gr engine
Rav4 v6 has the same 2gr. I have one with Marc's headers sitting in my office still waiting for me to find time to install them
Poor mans porsche boxster coming along great, looking forward to more.
I still remember when you first got the car looking like Ironman mr2😂. I’m so excited it’s back
A long time to see progress on this build
This is awesome. Now, all it needs next is some big ol' 18's and a gt wing to complete the look...
I just need to see this wrapped. Please.
The factory intake is kinda badass; wish yal would have retained it.
lets fknGO!💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
