this is my sons 91 MR2, 2.2 (hes got 2) 
i built a engine for this a few years ago
spun #1 rod bearing killed this one
and I turned it into this!
lots of painting
this is his 91 2.0 turbo
this is the one he is running now
yes i work on the dirt
waiting for pistons, then off for rebore
Alright now.got the pistons, drove down to the valley and dropped her off at the machine shop.
hope to have it back by mid week.
so ive been out to lunch for a bit
OK, so its been some time sense i did any work on the MR2-ver2.
so now im back at it, had the block for some time now.
Friday afternoon me and Daniel set the crank and stuffed the pistons in.
nothin like fresh honed cyls!
so now im painting and putting the puzzle together to figure out the rest of the colors on some parts.
yes it really is RED
and true Blue
Really, it is red, very red, not orange ;D
Plan to be done by his birthday in March (but im not pushin it).
new update on the MR2 ver 2
lots has got to happen sense i last posted on this
mostly assembled, got brackets i could not live without, got some silicone hoses for small coolant lines, (clamps are going to be a bitch)
so heres some new pics,,,,,,,
i got a thing for smileys, if you havent thought of that yet
bagged for another rain
had to deal with some smoked wiring, (the wires, not me)
after for ever, we got our hoses
had to polish the air tube when waiting for parts
off the stand
almost ready to lay on the ground (boards and such) to be DRAGGED under the car, (with a winch and a tree)
the same way i did the last one t9717
and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Daniel,
sorry still no car
