My Winter Project

[ryan21288]

As some of you might know i recenly sold my SHO which is up on craigslist for sale again lol. I decided to pick up another project but i couldn't find a SHO so i picked up a 1986 Toyota MR2. Its in pretty good condition considering its age. Only has 158k on the body and the motor has just over 100k. The previous owner put a motor from a geo prism gsi which is the same motor but has higher compression 10.5:1 i believe so instead of 110hp its got 130hp. Its a fun car handles great. Also has a stage 2 centerforce clutch and tons of new parts. The interior is pretty much mint and I even have the original window sticker. Well anyway it does need some rust repair and its gonna need valve seals eventually. Heres some pics

Nice project - when I was out looking for a first car I seen a MR-2 and fell in love.


Then I went for a ride in a mustang and it was all down hill from there. LOL

Hey Ryan - where was the pictures taken? I feel like i've been on that road with the water in the background. Is it by the Scituate Reservoir?

Looks more like Colt State Park in Bristol, esp. the first pic with the building in the background.
