  • Bentals Centre Kingston Upon Thames?!

  • I want this car..

  • douchebag

    

  • Just have to say, nice song choice. Mistabishi is pretty cool.

  • Kingston I see. Awesome vid and car dude

  • i see that you use mines ecu. how is that? isnt it programmed for 93 octane? can you still use unleaded?

  • @KCstreetRacing - No mate. It's mapped for 100 octane (the standard in Japan - where it was mapped). Here in the UK we can get up to 99 octane so it still runs ok.

  • @Mubble you could try to add octane boosters ,=] it should jump the figure's up a few notches =D nice car btw ~

  • I've been meaning to ask for a while now but never got around to it... what is the width & offset on your front & rear wheels? Also, what are the dimensions on the tires too? I really like the way the car sits on them. Having a hard time finding these in the states last time I checked 1/2 a year go. Is your 3S-GTE a 2nd or 3rd gen? Thanks for putting up with my rambling :P

  • @velisma ^yes i would like to know too

  • @velisma - Front: 8inch ET33 - Tyres 215/40/17. Rear: 9J ET43 - Tyres 245/40/17. The car is a 2nd Gen. I played around with various spoilers including the Aeroware, but finally took the plunge and went for the Rev5 combat spoiler as it's my favourite - required filling the holes left in the rear quarter panels and respraying. I prefer the Gen2 engine as it seems to put out 20-30 lb.ft more than similarly tuned Gen3 engines.

  • @Mubble I never would've guessed a 2nd gen. putting out more torque than a 3rd gen. I'm guessing the 20-30lbs/ft torque is found lower in the RPM range as a result of the TVIS? or is it the Mines ECU that does that through out the whole power band?

    3rd gen. are all the rage right now but after some research I've been seriously considering a 2nd gen. Financially it just makes sense.

  • @velisma - I think it's due to the design of the head. All rev1/2 do it. Mine puts out 290 lb.ft whereas similarly tuned (in terms of bhp) Rev3s hit about 260 lb.ft. And we all know torque means acceleration. Rev3s are better for extracting bhp though. Given the choice again I'd have a Rev3, but budget at the time meant Rev2 was my only option.

  • thats a fvckin beautiful car

  • Great video

  • U should try photoshoot

  • @3AZyy89 - Sorry, what do you mean?

  • The shakiness ads an artistic quality that makes the video even cooler..

  • Still a very sick video

  • Yes, I ship to the UK

  • looks good mate own a AW11 Limited ~~Midship FTW

  • Amazing.. The most beautiful mr2 i've ever seen.. 3s-gte mm

  • awesome vid

  • i think he likes lights my favoret parts when he turned his car into a creeper just creepin around from 1:19 to 1:39 its great

  • im getting my first 91 MR2 na this month. im so excited, my first stick car. i dont know what to do first when i get it

  • @AwwesomePossumm - Get used to mid engined rear wheel drive handling. Treat it with respect and remember it will bite you in the ass at some point. How soon depends on how much you push your luck. Either way, enjoy the new ride mate!

  • @Mubble i got the car. it has 150,000 miles on the original trans, but a rebuilt motor at 145k

    only flaw thats gunna need work is i think the 2nd gear synchro is going out because it grinds slightly when shifting from 1st at high rpms, but besides that and the cosmetic damages its all good.

  • @AwwesomePossumm - Good work dude. Google "JSP - Polyurethane Gear Linkage Bush Kit". Helped a lot with a slight crunch I had on my 3rd gear.

  • @Mubble

    Does this help with the grinding gear when shifting? I have a problem with my 1992 MR2 and it's from 1st to 2nd to 3rd gear. I have to shift slowly and the right speed or else it will make a sound. Please let me know soon

  • @AznFriedRiceDT - Probably not in your case. It'll smooth the change if it's slightly notchy. Your issue sounds a bit more serious and may involve a gearbox overhaul. Might be worth a try though for the sake of £30/$30.

  • @Mubble

    Do you know where I can get them? I found a website, but I live in the U.S. and they only ship to Ireland or United Kingdom.

  • @AznFriedRiceDT - Afraid not then. I know the guy who sells them on the website you probably found here in UK created the parts himself, so doubt anyone else makes them. Have you tried phoning him. I'm sure he'd ship the parts to the US.

  • @AwwesomePossumm sell itt too me (:

  • @TheASennott Never! i love this car. instead of spending 500$ on a bearing and synchro rebuild kit im just gunna save for a 3sgte motor and trans, then i can really enjoy some power!

  • you have a tight car.

  • would have been cool to actually HEAR the car, and not faggy ass shots of florescent lights.... nice car though

  • can i buy this car from you

  • Beau-ti-ful!

  • Clean car don't like the wing

  • Nice rims! What are they?

  • @12345ABCDEZX - Check the description mate.

  • groovy 

  • best looking mr2

  • Quality Film, u got imagination mate! i ike the car too (i got the same one in blue)

  • 0.59 guy had an epic face on

  • can you video the mr-2 actually accelerating? i wanna hear grunt.

  • mad props =D. i am an mr2 enthusiast as well (91 turbo) and love your short film movie.

  • U selling your mr2 mate??

  • Nice

  • Sweet MR2 Looks amazing in black!

    What are the offsets of the wheels btw?

  • Very reliable great first car, my only gripe is that handling could be much better - I run '225' Michelin tires and in the snow handling is awful - go for a Front wheel drive car anytime. As engine is in rear the front is so light and in the snow the back end was swinging all over the place (even though front was holding) I personally prefer a Honda Prelude/Legend as those cars have more 'balls' offer better handling. Toyota should have carried the pop up lights onto their mark 3 model too.

  • @TheBottledair I prefer handling on asphalt over snow anyday.

    Lol, it doesn't even snow from where I live xD

  • Nice! super clean black mk2!!

    agreed @biostyle

  • Nice vid and nice car. Love how it's so clean and the mods look tasteful. The stance on those wheels and suspension looks really good. Would love to see the interior and engine bay. Great work!

  • How do you install the engine scoop (snorkel ) on the engine cover??

  • @ionfreak93 - You don't. The engine is cooled by air coming up underneath and out through the engine lid. Putting a scoop on will just push that hot air back into the engine. Not cool.

  • @Mubble thanks. i noticed you dont have it. . do you have stock signal and fog lights?

  • @ionfreak93 - Fogs are stock. Front side lights are different (more crystal effect) and indicators/signal lights are smoked/tinted.

  • @Mubble i love how you set urs up. its like just how i would want mine. what kind of wheels are those?

  • weak car

  • nice

  • what's the title of the track? I've never heard of Mistabishi before and it's hard to tell by ear.

    On with the car. What can I say except it's beautiful. I'm single and I hate taking on passengers thus I've been searching for an MR2 locally. These still hold pretty good value. There seems to be a lot of RHD cars imported from Japan but I don't know if that's doable. Shit, it's so beautiful I wish car companies made them still. I don't want to get a Miata.

  • @supercooled - Track is called View From Nowhere by Mistabishi. Thanks for the compliments. Only have one spare seat is a god-send when groups of mates ask for lifts home! Best investment I ever made!

  • @supercooled

    mistabishi- view from nowhere

  • Truly a BEAUTIFUL car! It's a dirty shame that car manufacturers don't make cars like these any more.

  • amazing. in an ideal world i would have this MR2 as my DD and a MK4 Supra as my weekend car.

  • the ending was a bit noncy !!!

  • i'd have a cig right after i drove this zappy mr2 as well ))

    NICE TOY!!!

  • Finally, a TASTEFULLY-MODIFIED MR2 Turbo.

    Very nice.

    The '95 MR2 Turbo T-Top 5 Speed was the greatest car I have ever owned. I must have another!

  • Sorry if this was already mentioned earlier... I'm trying to see how big a rim/apect ratio/tread width I can put on my '91 turbo. Can you give me your exact numbers for your beauty and did you have to modify the car ie. take out the wheel well plastic to do so?

  • @redruMnCoke84 . My fronts are 17" diameter with 8" width running 215/40 tyres. Rears are 17" but 9" width running 245/40 tyres. I didn't need to remove or modify the wheel arch lining. However, it all depends what the 'offset' of the wheels are (the location of the centre hub of the wheel in relation to the inside or outside edge of the rim). Check out this website for calculations... "mr2.gordaen . com/wt_calc . php" (remove all the spaces in the address!)

  • you went through all that trouble and didn't show any driving footage... BORING!!

  • Shouldn't smoke but great car. Really nice looking example ;)

  • It's like mine but with less dints, newer, oh and different colour.

    So not much like mine at all.

  • THIS IS EXACTLY HOW A FUCKING AWESOME CAR SHOULD LOOK LIKE! Black with black rims and a red line around them. I'm getting my drivers licence in few weeks I hope and I will be very happy if I find a good Toyota MR2 to have it as the first car!

  • @biostyle Same here! :D Luckily for me, I have a big yard so I can find out the mr2's advantages and disadvantages xD it'll be good experience for driving it out in the real world :P

  • @biostyle have you gotten it yet?

  • @frostbite0995 Hey there. There was no Toyota MR2 near my place, so I had to grab a different car. I bought a black Toyota Celica S, also a damn beautiful car with a lot of extras, considering the age!

  • @biostyle oh i just baught a mr2 turbo :o

  • I've been running N/A import Rev 4 T-Bar as hard as I can for nearly 8 years now and i've enjoyed every single minute of it. Love these cars and love this video!

  • when is the sequel coming out?

  • so i got this great idea, you should ship your motor, wheels, interior, bumpers, deck lid, and tail lights over to my place in the united states, just sayin.....

  • hey i was wondering is there a way to buy those project d1 rims in the US?

  • The song is Mistabishi - View From Nowhere Thumb up so others can see.

  • The song is Mistabishi - View From Nowhere Thumb up so others can see.

  • Love this car. Have liked this model of MR2 ever since I've had an interest in cars.

  • Being a mr2 turbo owner, I really like the video - I love how well it was edited and shot.

    Make another one w/ some vroom swoosh =)

  • @reflex0r agreed!

  • very nice! Did you time the acceleration? How much time till 0-100kmh?

  • Sickk mr2 man

  • I believe this is what we call homosexual

  • 10 people have an honda integra

  • Namo of music???.......Wonderful car!!!

  • Nice spec list, and a sweet MR2 mate, i love mine but just wish it was turbo! where abouts you from?

  • awesome mr2

  • hello i love the car!... but i have a question this clutch that u use "Helix" how is the performance of the clutch with the power that u produce? because im looking for a clutch my self for my 3sgte celica and didnt know what to buy....spec? act? exedy? clutch masters? Helix? i just dont know because i will be doing alot of driving and will make about the same power as you do! please let me know thank you

  • @NewGenZ - The clutch is fine for the power. It's more the torque which determines which clutch. Mine is good for about 360lb.ft - my MR2 makes about 300. It's been on there about 40,000miles and it's still only partly worn. Feel-wise, the clutch is no stiffer to use than the stock one that I had on before. Go to the Rogue Motorsport website and look under Products and Clutches, a newer version is in there. I haven't tried other makes so can't comment. Maybe ask on the MR2 forum?

  • @Mubble Got to agree running the Helix in my 2! Also got the same wheels as you too, nice vid.

  • Stunning SW20

  • Now that is one nice clean mr2!!! very slick

  • my brother just bought one that looks like yours, can't wait to drive it :D

  • fuck lambos, this is my dream car.

  • I HATE YOU.

  • Wow I want that.

  • I <3 my MR2.

  • Awesome video! That is one nice MR2. I have a red '91 that is in the process of being painted black. I just hope that it comes out as nice as yours. Also, great work on the production of the video as well. Nicely done! Maybe when I finished getting my car painted, I'll post a video response to show off the new paint! :)

  • Beautiful car man. These cars don't get enough attention from tuners. However you are doing something right.

  • Man, what body kit is that? Excellent choice of wheels btw.

  • Very well done artistic video! I Got an MR2 and I love it, just got a few minor engine mods and full modded footwork. Keeping them clean like this is the way to go
