The £300 Toyota MR2 mk3 part 5.. It's done! Gearbox seal, suspension strip down and a drive out
The final (until I see Andy again) chapter of this mr2 for me.
I did have a video of me freeing off the passenger caliper which was stuck.. But I've lost it in the abyss, sorry
Hope you all enjoy
Had to change out the passenger side gearbox seal. This is how I do it..

Saw this yesterday, wow its something alright
Its a great little car for the money :) engines sweet, all body panels bolt on, so them bits are easy sorted. I'm sure andy will get it looking great
Really enjoyed these MK3 films. I have 17’s on mine and agreed terrible! Great job on your Mk3 good to see another saved!
thank you, My 2zz needs some tidying, ill always keep an eye out for others that need saving, rather than scrapping
Nice one!
@@mikescudder4621 thank you
I'm looking forward to the day when you've got several thousand subs and the channel name is "Hot Squash" .
Ha Ha Ha.. That's amazing!!!!!
Japanese Reds of that age were dire. My Civic looked like a rats nest.
Yeah they fade bad. TBH i think all reds of this age faded badly
Loving this little series. I'm after a cheap run around that could feasibly be some fun, looked at these for a while.
@@toooldfortwowheels2048 they are great little cars. You can get a clean one, parts are cheap and easy to get. Very reliable little cars.. I daily mine, and this one's is now Andys daily driver
This is a great channel, thoroughly enjoy the way you get stuck in, explaining things. I also have a MK3, so interesting to see your work. Look forward very much future content! Big Thanks!
thank you. new video of this mk3 will be on in the next couple of days :)
6 axle stands, 2 ramps and a trolley jack... I think you'll be safe under there 🙂
@@jamesc3064 yep... Gotta be safe 😂😊😊
Was that a steam train I heard? If so, what line is it? I replaced my radiator recently and did everything as you should but couldn’t get heater to work, but a few revs cleared the air lock and been good since 👍🏻 I also used tap water on advice from a couple of mechanic friends.
@@AnonymousAndy2 yeah the air block normally is one of two places thermostat. You clear by pumping the pipe, and the heater matrix you clear with revs... Top work The steam tram was the Romney Hythe Dymchurch railway (RH&DR).. It's a small stream railway that goes along romney Marsh. It's a fun little thing Have look online www.rhdr.org.uk/ I hear it from my garden we love it
Enjoyed this, picked up some good tips, thanks.
Perfect, glad I could help, Will be uploading the service and coolant change video soon. That will probably be a long one, as wanted to explain properly how to change the coolant
If it wasn't for the mk2 the mk3 would have looked ok I think. New sub look forward to getting thrown in flower pots in the future 😅
Ha Ha Ha, amazing, glad you enjoy the flower pot trips :) thats made my day My mk3 gets an amazing amount of hate,,, "oh thats no good, its not a mk2" " oh thats the ugly one" I just let it blow over me, they do not know what they are missing. I have had all shapes and sizes mr2's, i still have my original mk1 that i got in 1999. I like all three for different reasons.Mk1 is my fav shape, and the 4age on song is sweeeet The mk2 for boost and they do look great, but my least favorite to drive Mk3 they drive brilliant Thanks :)
Facelift headlights and tailights get good money if you break it...I have a mint 2004 with 36000 miles, factory hardtop and tte style bar....pic on avatar.
Its fixed and running :) see part 3 video .. thanks i really don't like breaking cars if i do not have to
Your car looks mega BTW
Anyone else now searching marketplace looking for a local MR2 to save 😂. My MR2 is all done and so I would like another project and saving an MR2 could fit the bill 🤔.
I love saving them rather than the being broken. This was going to the junkyard!! Mine personal 2zz is brilliant, but it now needs so love so I'll do a video of that one soon.. But I'll keep and eye out for another that needs saving
scratch remover and brillo pad in the glove box. amazing.
The endless circle of life right there 😁😁😁
I always enjoy picking up the cheap marketplace cars as it's like a lucky dip the random items you'll find in them
I know right.. It is most of the fun, trying to find out what sort of life the car has had!
cant wait to see this progress
thank you, I will be doing stuff this week to it (cleaning servicing and taking for a drive), then i expect It will be going to Andy. but my 2zz mr2 needs some love so i'll get videos up of that
Score! Nice project.
thank you!! hope to get it running this week
Sertraline = anti depressant I can see why they needed them 😂😂😂

I just bought one yesterday! Arrives tomorrow can't wait. Previously owned a VX Commodore SS which was the 4-door saloon version of this. Enjoy :)
Awesome... Enjoy. Great cars .. What's the year spec and colour
2005, CV8 in red, manual box@@Pistolspete82
@@CrazedCrittic Perfect! Enjoy it today
Mostly likely due to pinion bearing wear. A common problem. Not harmful to the car but will get worst. If so, needs a rebuild or swap out.
cheers I replaced the front PTU all sorted!
@@Pistolspete82do you recommend changing the wheel bearings when changing the ptu?
@@ZymeDaily nope, no need to at all.. mine were fine, just the PTU
Excuse my lack of knowledge but is the PTU a case of unbolting the unit and replacing with another or is it a case of replacing a bearing? Thanks in advance mate. 👍🏻
Otr vcm 13 camshaft, being manual either run 3.7 or 3.9 diff gears high rise manifold, that’s the usual go to here in aus street or burnout car 🤙
Cheers!! I defo want to do the rear diff definitely to long of a drive on it at the moment. And I'd love to do a cam on it
Can we have an acceleration vid too please? ha
I can sort that :)

Nice! Got a GTO over there?
@@Pistolspete82 my brother owns one , I’m saving up for one right now
@@Alien_Nukes you'll love it when you get one
Beautiful sound
Was this diagnosed?
Yeah head was lifting under boost... All it needed was head re torquing
near 20 years old now and still in nice condition shows they were built to last.
thanks yeah its lasted really well, helps it only has 85K miles, but it got lots of life left in it!
Great cars my father has a VIII (VY) and I have a VZ CV8.
nice! they sound great don't they!
@@Pistolspete82 Yes they do! they are a sought after car now here down under.
@@triggeredleftyvegan6004 not loads left in the UK now either
Hello from Pistonheads! My Saab 9-5 had the same cupholders as that. I know thats the least V8 thing i could say but yeah! Nice car, enjoy!
Ha ha ha amazing. Thanks Dan 😝👍 do like a good saab
HOLDEN OR CHEVROLET..?
It's a Holden, but sold in the UK as a vauxhall 😝
Or Pontiac gto in usa
@@adammoffatt3832 indeedy. I have all the countries to try and get parts from 😝
@@Pistolspete82 haha well add new zealand to the list but I would say the parts should be cheapest from Australia.
@@adammoffatt3832 good shout, i'd love a spoiler, but i think the shipping costs are pretty huge
Does your gearbox have a bad crunch?
Nah.. not really. It does have a slight crunch in second and . Occasionally I get the clutch slightly wrong.. it's a 6 paddle clutch with a pretty low bite . So sometimes just catch it wrong .
The gearing though is wrong into 5th! Aaron's is the same. Use 4th to top end .5th then drops to just over 5k.. others don't have this issue.. wonder it there is a slight difference in Celica and corolla boxes
@@Pistolspete82 interesting point, I am sure the corolla has a slightly different box but never found absolute proof.
@@andrew1henderson1983 nope.. its hard to prove. watch my castle combe video and youll see it, watch others and they easily stay in lift.. I don't know where my gear set came from. I only have the mr2 6th gear and LSD (I use the mr2 casing the celica gearset was swapped into it)
Nice one! Always wondered what they looked like, cheers!!!
no worries, glad you found it. They were huge flames compared to our old one
What a lap!
Thanks :) The j-spec engine was awesome
@@Pistolspete82 nice driving skills mate! Are you happy with 2zzge? withstands the strain for such a long time on the track days?
@@DimoS... thanks.. Yeah it's mega on track. The engine is good for it as long as it has a baffled sump. I have done many 20min+ sessions on track in it 👍
@@Pistolspete82 this is very reliable mate!!! No issue with intake cam wear?
@@DimoS... none at all
nice
Ooooh that top end sounds really knackered
Congratulations on the win Pete, thought I had you up until run 5. It was cazy wet out there on this run. I didn't bother going out. Your car looks so planted even in these conditions, I need to change my AR1's for A052's as I think these were the difference on the day once it started to dry for run 5. Good luck today 👌 I didn't bother as there was no way I was going quicker.
Yeah i really like the A052s, I really felt for aaron on the r888r's as i know what they are like in the wet
It seems that your 5th gear has an extremely low ratio. What car is that gear from?:)
Yeah I'm not sure why. It's a gear set from a Celica 2zz. With MR2 6th. Not sure why 5th is an issue. It's one I need to sort. I didn't really want the 6th either it's just one that the gearbox guy fitted..n
looks to go well fella
Thanks mate. Yeah I'm pleased with it
Flames!
Stock engine?
@aliadean stock engine. But running an emu black ECU, which means can get rid of MAF and lambdas, so running open cone filter and wideband
@@Pistolspete82 ,well done,must run much better at the top end having an intake the same diameter as the throttle plate,which to me,is how it should have been from the getgo,how much power do you think you've released? Any links so I can do the same?
@@Deanyfromtheburgh thanks mate. Yeah makes a huge difference without the made I have a full build thread with pictures on imoc, piston heads and here... www.mr2roc.org/forum/index.php?topic=67246.50 If you wanted to have a read
Good numbers. Hey, what fender flares are those?
Cheers!! They are just cheapo ebay flares.. Cost about £15
@@Pistolspete82 there are a million "cheap ebay flares".. care to be more specific ? still have a link to them by chance ? thanks !
@@theregoesmiller389 I bought mine two years ago but exact link.. But was basically these www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4pcs-Universal-Fender-Flares-Wide-Body-Kit-Wheel-Arches-Durable-PP-Polyurethane-/264866067128?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286 You just need to check the width you want
Tweak to the track layout at Blyton? Kerbs look different, flatter maybe?
There have been a few tweaks. Tracks wider on corner exit going to track exit... They have got rid of the yellow on tower?(end of main straight) but track limit still in same place .. kerbs still same height I think not been there for couple years though...
Love this Pete, looks like you had great fun! Nice to see the MR2 being stretched after all the work you’ve put in. Engine sounds sweet 👌🏻. If you have a Gopro, did you set it to Spot Metering? If not, doing so might help with the view out of the windscreen not getting blown out and over-exposed 👍🏻
Hey buddy I normally set the focus for out the screen.. I just forgot.. it's pain in *** trying to set it up when ya can't see it ☺️ Had lots of fun in it yesterday
Looks good Pete. Plenty of Kerb Usage, and proper on it :D Still a few corners to be a tiny bit quicker, but that is the 'problem' with Sprint or Hillclimbs.... Ya don't get another 30 laps over a weekend to get each corner perfect! :D
Indeed I know there plenty places I feel I can make time up.. I was down two laps already due to clutch issues and still learning the car . Quicker each time I go out at the moment so definitely getting there..
Nice
Is that a 5 speed ?
No mate it's a 6 speed. Celica 2zz gearbox with mr2 lsd
@@Pistolspete82 just looking into this swap for mine and trying to work out if having the 6 speed with my lsd put in is worth the extra cash
@@olliethomsonrsl yes it is.. I ran mine with a mr2 gearbox.. the gearing Is completely wrong.. ruins the whole swap.. make sure you fit the 2zz gearbox.. with the mr2 box you drop out of lift every gear change and you have to wait sooo long for lift.. you'll wish you just fitted the right box.. so basically.. yes pay for the box
Smooth
Cheers
