You can get a salvage title for sitting w/ no engine? wow!

Nice car though!

dkwon451 · 09-15-2008, 10:09 PM

still up for sale?

evilmr2 · 09-15-2008, 11:06 PM

Yes, still for sale. It's at the transmission shop getting a tranny swap, and resurfacing of flywheel and clutch. As mentioned above, ACT stage 2 clutch, with extreme pressure plate. Recently had clutch master cyclinder replaced, so clutch pedal is smooth.

dkwon451 · 09-16-2008, 10:52 AM

well im reall interested. do the gauges read pretty accurate? and whats the deal with the missing gauge?

evilmr2 · 09-16-2008, 12:21 PM

Tachometer reads 10 for 10; I hardwired it directly from the sender wire, not tapped, so there's no delay or false reading. The fuel guage re-vamps every so often, but it just needs another part from autometer-the sender unit, so that it reads properly. The missing guage is the one i wrote about at the top, the speedometer. Autometer Phantom II series mounting hole was cut, that speedo is about $250, which i already sold. I bought another speedometer driven gear, which hooks up to the transmission at the rear transmission mount; when you buy the speedo, buy the sender ATM-5291, which screws into the speedo driven gear, converting the speedometer from original mechinical, to electrical for new speedometer.

Is the car still for sale? are you interested in a 4,000$ down payment, and installments? I live in vegas, pm me.

thanks

mr2stealth · 12-19-2008, 12:30 PM

wow i love the car,
but i was just wondering where you got those headlights??

MR2 Drifter · 12-19-2008, 03:42 PM

$5,800 is a steal for that car, if I had the money I would get that for sure

evilmr2 · 12-31-2008, 01:19 PM

For the month of January, dropping total price to $4500, with extra engine.

artur1976 · 12-31-2008, 02:31 PM

Has a salvaged title due to shell sitting without engine for quite a long time.

Hows that possible?

evilmr2 · 01-04-2009, 02:36 AM

Well, was registered as INOP due to chassis only, then was registered for use after the engine was installed.
Sinca it was considered salvaged with a new engine, the title doesn't require a mileage count, which is why I opted for the Autometer gauges and went ahead and got rid of the original gauge cluster

Selling your MR2 for a Motorcycle!? I own a motorcycle and I love it but I'd never get rid of my 2 for one, MR2 is much more versatile and fun than a motorcycle... Also safer!

PMoo1519 · 01-09-2009, 04:05 PM

so how many miles are on the engine?

evilmr2 · 01-12-2009, 12:10 AM

I want to say about 75000 on the one thats in the car, same for the back-up engine. Just to let all you guys out there know, I only have the engine for a PARTS engine. Not sure on too much of the information.

PMoo1519 · 01-12-2009, 10:20 PM

it runs just fine right??? i have an NA right now that runs great lots of fun to drive. and i know the turbo would be a lot more fun but not as reliable. i love your car. and relli considering buying it. everything on the engine is fine right. no fixes needed??

evilmr2 · 01-13-2009, 12:37 AM

As far as I know, the only thing needed right now is maybe a new valve cover gasket... I'm burning of oil thats very slowly seeping out at that area, but that usually only runs about $100. This thing is most likely only going to be on the market until the end of January

Just Wong It · 01-19-2009, 09:35 AM

too bad you're not close to Atlanta, GA or Charlotte, NC.. I would pick this up right away.
