91 MR2 Turbo (JDM 3SGTE Swap w/ LSD) 300hp
Name: Jon
Location: Virginia Beach, VA
Means of contact: Post, PM, or call/text 757-818-0423
Trades: NO TRADES
Price: $8.5k obo
Mileage: 69xxx (185xxx on chasis)
Description:
I hate to do it but I've got to sell my baby. It was originally a 91 non-turbo, but I had a 3rd generation 3SGTE engine (CT20B turbo) and LSD transmission swapped from a Japanese imported MR2 by the MR2 Warehouse. The engine & transmission has about 69,000 miles on it and the chassis has about 185,000 miles on it. The 3SGTE was completely stock, as was the original car when I bought them. The swap and most of the performance upgrades have been done professionally, and I have records to show it. Any serious work has been done by NoShoes Raceworks, (Bryan Noshoes specializes in MR2s). It has never been in any accidents. This car is fast, beautiful, and reliable. It has been my daily driver for 4 years now. If you take care of it like I have, there's no way you won't fall in love with this car. It's a blast to drive, and I get compliments on it all the time. I've really babied this car and I hate to see it go, but I joined the Air Force and I leave in 2 weeks for BMT, so I will have no use of it. I am in a hurry, which is why the price is OBO, but please no lowballing. I've got at least $17,000 into this car in pars/labor etc. so $8.5k obo is not bad at all.
Mods are as follows:
Engine:
-Swapped 3rd Gen 3SGTE with CT20B turbo and LSD transmission (about 69,000 miles)
- Spec stage 3 performance clutch
- Walboro fuel pump
-Resurfaced Flywheel
- Apexi Intake
- HKS SSQV Blow-Off Valve
- EMS Powered side-mount intercooler
- Greddy boost controller
- ACS oil pressure sensor relocation kit
- Berk 3" full dual exhaust
-Gutted catalytic converter
Other performance:
-Tein S-Tech lowering springs
-Spec short-shifter
Exterior:
-Toyota Super White paintjob (4 years old now)
- JDM MR2 front badge
-94+ tail lights (restored & clear-coated)
- WRD gold wheels staggered, 16x8 (front) 16x9(rear)
-Tires are 245/50/16 in the rear and 205/45/16 in front
-rolled rear fenders
-painted black front grill
Interior:
- TRD shift knob
-Custom leather shift boot
-Full restored black interior
-NRG quick-release hub
-NRG racing steering wheel
- TWOSRUS "MR2" logo floor mats
-Bride replica seats
- Autopower Boost gauge (installed but not working)
- Autopower Oil pressure gauge (installed but not working)
-TwosRus A-pillar gauge pod
- Infiniti speaker system front/rear
-Alpine Head Unit (with ipod direct control, screen displaying album art etc.,
bluetooth linkable)
- LED mod for gauge cluster (cool white)
The bad:
There only a few very minor problems with this car, all easily fixable but I just don't have the time right now:
-The trunk latch is broken, so you have to use the key
-As with all T-top MR2s, they leak slightly when it rains heavily, but not too bad
-The antenna motor does not work, so it is always up unless you push it down (but the antenna itself is fine, radio works)
-The paint has chipped in a couple spots on the wing, one spot on the rear bumper, and one spot where some fool shot it with a bbgun on the passenger door.
Other than those small things, everything works perfectly. Drives, shifts, handles, and dominates other cars with no problems
Feel free to post here, PM, or email Dean at (trndad@cox.net) for more pictures or with any questions you have. You can also call or text his cellphone at 757-274-3497. Come see it and take it for a test drive. As I will be in training for the military for the next 5 months, my dad will be taking over the sale for me

Bump because I knocked on your door, canvassing in your neighborhood while working for the Melani Brothers, about two or three days ago.
Sadly, you didn't come to the door...but when i walked away, I said.."gosh now thats a nice car...I know one when I see one! Gold on white, actually doesn't look that bad? *stares at your car walking away*" haha...wow. Small world huhh?
FRUMP BUMP, TTT! GLWS man ;p
