Ok so I found an MR2, but it is non-turbo. Any way to have it ref'd with a stock turbo engine?
It is at a price that is unbeatable, and I wanted a turbo for now, but the price is so hard to beat, I dunno what to do. So I ask, get a really sweet deal on an MR2 period? The point was to be a DD while I fix up my Celica (swap, etc...) and then fix on the MR2 as the next project. Wanted specifically a turbo for speed and legally smog reasons, but I dunno. Please, what do you think I should do? I might need a poll here. I need to know by this Thursday!! The sooner the better for me. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204

^^^ Very good advice. I shall do that. Because this guy is 300 miles away. I want it bad, and from the look of his drive way, it is clean. He said small leaks and such. But I am taking an engine overhaul class and sure I am going to need some projects to do in there. I don't mind working on this MR2 for $1k. The guy seems pretty honest as he told me two people are coming to look at it and I can keep it there until Saturday to pick it up if need be. But I pay him up front and he will sign over the pink slip to me.
Also from the photos, the house he lives in is HUGE! Thinking he doesn't know about fixing up cars or something, because when he seen how serious I was, he called me back and wanted to go over it's problems again. After each one, I was like "Unh huh.... Is that all?" and finally it ended where he was just like "Ugh, yeah...... that's it". I honestly believe that for $1k, it would be in the same condition or have the same problems as one who has an MR2 Turbo 93' and trying to sell it for $3k. But I shall check out those things. I just want to make it down there today if it hasn't sold so I can decide if I want to buy it or not. It will sell at that price fast, regardless of what troubles it has. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204
