dome Posted December 26, 2018 Posted December 26, 2018 If you've seen my project* thread you may have seen this fine beast.Bought by me in July to donate it's engine to a MK3 MR2. It passed an MOT and was pressed into use pending it's fate, that is now upon us.Everything available apart from the engine, box and driveshafts.Rolling shell available if you're quickPics from when I got it, it still looks the same, just a bit dirty.Wheels are good but tyres aren't great before anyone asks.

Youngsod Posted December 27, 2018 Posted December 27, 2018 Not the biggest possible purchase, but I need a fuel cap if it’s the original one...
dome Posted December 27, 2018 Author Posted December 27, 2018 Not the biggest possible purchase, but I need a fuel cap if it’s the original one...Aye, it's still there. Drop me a PM and we'll sort something

Jmac Posted December 30, 2018 Posted December 30, 2018 Thank you Morris ital . I will have a look this evening , it's 40 odd pages long so should keep me busy for a while .cheers . Justin MorrisItalSLX 1

Thank you Justin.Hello! Sorry, been away all day today but will have a look tomorrow and see if I can get your bits off.
dome Posted December 30, 2018 Author Posted December 30, 2018 The project thread covers lots of old rammel, the MR2 appears about 20 pages in. The black one we originally bought was too good to strip apart so we bought another one to do the conversion on with a more broken engine. Conversion is just starting but it's a well documented thing to do. Can't wait to get it on the road!
Jmac Posted December 30, 2018 Posted December 30, 2018 Hi Dome , thank you for looking at the bits for me , no rush , totally at your convenience. Message me when you like . I will read the project thread mr2 with interest , I really am surprised about a corolla engine being fitted in a mr 2 , sounds great . Hopefully after reading the thread I will understand why you are doing this conversion . If I have any questions I will post up . Thanks Justin .
Snipes Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 Corolla has a 190bhp* vvtli engine while the MR2 only ever got the 130 vvti. I've seen vvtli mr2s but only as prize cars in Gran Turimso 2! *Toyota were generally optimistic here. 170bhp isn't unusual, even when they were fairly new and being developed by the aftermarket.

dome Posted January 1, 2019 Author Posted January 1, 2019 Not the biggest possible purchase, but I need a fuel cap if it’s the original one... This I've kept, if you still need it drop me a PM Hello Dome , seeing your post has prompted me to actually join autoshite, thank you . Where is the project thread for the mr2 getting Corolla engine ? That sounds like a interesting thing to do . This is my second post I said hello on the new members thread after seeing your engine donor corrolla pictures .

Thank you Justin. I did manage to get the fuel flap release but not the A/C button I'm afraid The other bits I've kept if anyone needs them are 5x Alloys with legal but not great tyres4 CalipersFront and rear lights. If anyone needs anything that went on the shell let me know and I'll pass you my mates details. i'm not sure how long it'll be around though.
Jmac Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Hi Dome , thank you for getting the lever bit . I will send a pm . J . dome 1

Lord Sterling Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 I don't need/want them but are the mats still available?
dome Posted January 16, 2019 Author Posted January 16, 2019 Wheels are now sold. Any of the above fit an Auris? I don't think anything will I'm afraid
dome Posted January 16, 2019 Author Posted January 16, 2019 I don't need/want them but are the mats still available? The mats have been claimed for workshop use I'm afraid!
