Wanted to post this as a future reference.

I just recently bought 2 Mr2. I got it shipped from CT. Today I finally had time to play with one of them. The 93 MR2 had a problem getting into gears when the car is running. It'll go into gears when its off. I check my shift cables and it was fine, check slave cylinder and it was fine. So I decided to take down the tranny to check the tranny. I'm already thinking its the pressure plate. So i open it up and found that its cracked.. Here is some pix.

Taking it apart to get rid of the rust


Took down the tranny in 4-5hrs, it was the pressure plate that cracked.


On my way to get a new clutch, thought this was hilarious



I havent install the new clutch yet but damn, it was the pressure plate that cracked. I don't know what the previous owner have done.

Hope this helps anyone.
