This is actually old news considering I traded my Celica for an 91 MR2 Turbo back in December. I've had it running and driving since March but have been waiting to post it up until I was satisfied with the end result...for now biggrin.gif

The car originally had a JDM 93 3SGTE swapped in but had developed rod knock. I took the ST205 WRC 3SGTE meant for the Celica and put it in the MR2. I did all the wiring (a first for me) and fabrication myself.

Things I've added since owning the MR2: New Rear Ball Joints and LCA bushings, Custom Intake, WTA plumbing and Heat Exchanger w/dual fans, 10" puller fan where stock IC was located, H4 Conversion w/ 8000k HIDs, Non-Air Bag Steering wheel, and lastly an HKS EVC 6.

Enjoy the pix.

Colin,

Very nice work! That's a pretty cool setup you did with the twin fans. Where'd you mount that?

It's great to see my old car looking nice and with a new motor. I really enjoyed it over the years. You'll have to let me know if you ever take the car to the track. I'm curious what kind of numbers it would run with the 205 motor.

I have a few minor but cool upgrades in the works for the Celica too. wink.gif

ps--I haven't forgot about getting the stuff from you. I'll email you next week.
