Default 1991 Toyota MR2 NA / Gen4 3SGTE

Name: Elric
Location: Chesapeake, VA
Contact: PM, Post
Price: $12,000 obo.

I really can't believe I'm even considering it but I am. I'm putting up my MR2 for sale.

I bought the car back in September 2012 and it was promptly built over the following 6 months.

The engine is a Gen4 3SGTE from a '98 Toyota Caldina GT-T. It was automatic with 103k km on it (I'm trying to find the paperwork from it but it's been a while...everything else on the car I have in a binder). I replaced all the seals/gaskets/belts/pumps on the engine before it was installed as well as gave it a full tune up.

Everything but the AC works. I accidentally pinched the lines coming from the condenser when I removed the old engine (I was tired and forgot to disconnect them from the compressor) so they'll need to be repaired. Any AC shop can fix this. It also has a new condenser and will come with a new receiver drier for when the system is recharged.

The build thread on the car is here: http://club4ag.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=9332

This car is ridiculously reliable and delivers an average of 28mpg. It's running on wastegate pressure but most people with my setup make around 270whp @16psi.

Thanks, I really don't want to get rid of it but with the family growing the way it is...just no time for it...or money to do the rest of what I want to it. It just doesn't fit in the puzzle of life right now.
