- Apologize for saying “pretty much” didn’t realized it until it’s uploaded. Not good with editing nor have time.
These are the things that I look for when I go buy my Mr2s. 95% of my cars were non runners and is what I prefer when buying one. That way I can restore it the way I want.
I’m no expert Mechanic / body man nor am I trying to be one. I just do this for fun and as a hobby. Most of these cars are sunny SoCal Cali cars.

On a T-bar I'd recommend checking for rust underneath the T-top seal if the owner lets you.
The little finger pointer is making me laugh 😂
Jes Fos sorry. That’s all I can find around the house. iPhone and finger pointer.
@@BobPham haha nah I love it. Learning and laughing simultaneously 😂
@@BobPham Nice video Bob. Very informative, plus the finger reminds of the old Option2 videos with K.T. pointing at features on peoples' cars.
I feel like I'm watching Best Motoring when I see the finger pointer
This video needs to be seen by everyone, mr2 buyer or not.
Why have I completely watched this? I already own an MR2 lol. Kinda interesting to see how the US spec does have some tiny differences to the European (and Japanese) cars.
Nice dual tone interior too. I think it fits well with the outside color.
Thank you so much for this I can’t wait to get mine! Love this car so much
My dream car to this day is a SW20 MR2 and one day I’ll finally find and buy one
Thanks for your interest in MR2's. Am original owner 91T.
Cre8tive garage here showing love keep up the hard work we stopping by from Las Vegas 🏎👋
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Really helpful, thanks dude.
Excellent review!! Hey any good shop in Socal you advise for maintenance?
good stuff as always!!
how hard is it to replace a rusted rocker panel below driver door
Great video Bob, as ususal. Is there any other points that is suitable when using a 2 post lift? My rear sills is getting squished just like your car and it only gets worse year by year.
There are 4 points that has pinch spot to Jack up from. U need a puck. But majority of the mr2 get smush pretty common
Which gen 4 or 5 3sgte do u prefer? Which would be easier to swap/ make power ?
What is a healthy compression for these engines?
How can I get an out of state...no egr or CAT MR2 updated for California and a general cost?
what exhaust is on this? sounds nice and modest
Does anyone know a good place to buy an MR2 I've been looking for a while now and don't really see many on the market, or maybe I'm not looking in the right spots?
Cảm ơn bạn, tôi cũng đang tìm một SW20
Are all mr2 keys sticky? Cuz mine is too
Yo great vids! Quick question My 93 turbo the gas door opens fine but it won't close it hits the latch part. But if I hold the gas door lever on the floor and I reach over at same time and close gas door it shuts. Any idea?
Try Lubing the shaft
@@BobPham that worked thank you! I wish I did this long time ago
U got a xtra turbo tranmission for sale ???
Does anyone know of a good reliable shop that can do mr2 engine swap from second gen 3sgte to 5th gen 3sgte in Southern California
3stwins on instagram Luis did my 5s to 4th gen 3sgte but I seen 5th gens
I wanna buy a JDM one, idk where to even start
so where is an intercooler located in the turbo model of an MR2?
Check the side scoops of the mr2, they actually serve a purpose
Where do you source your parts engine wise?
I live in SoCal as well and was wondering if I got a jdm 3sgte 4/5gen is that legal to put in ?
I cant seem to find a usdm one but maybe Im just bad at searching
Facebook group. Gen4/5 are illegal.
@@BobPham I see thank you for the reply!
I saw your black AW11 on Roads untraveled was that a gen 2 3gste in there?
@@richardtaing7096 it’s a 5th gen with link monsoon x and on flex fuel
Is this car for sale?
That looks like a Texas registration sticker lol
Yup! I bought my keeper haha
