There's often sets on eBay. Expect to pay $5000-6000 for a MR2-specific setup. It's definately the easiest way to get a BEAMS into an MR2.

I stand corrected. This is the easiest way to get a BEAMS into an MR2.

What a gorgeous car!

if your doing a full swap from a clip, doesnt help or hurt the time and difficulty of the swap.

yes, clips are much easier, its literally pulling one piece of the original and replacing it with the piece from the clip. its just really nice. I helped a buddy here do a swap with a clip, and it was the easiest engine job ive ever helped on.
