MR2 konstantins build

My MR2 build. Took a year to build it. I really enjoy the car. I did most of the work to get it running. Pushes 270 hp at the wheels. I mostly enjoy the shape of this ...

Nice deuce, not a fan of the red door mirrors but that's your style no hate. I got a 91 turbo and 91 n/a. Man these cars are so fun to own, the turbo is a fun ride, especially in 3rd gear at 3500 - 5000 rpm.

BUSTRCHERRI commented on 10 Nov 2014

Yup. Those mirrors gotta get painted ASAP. Or at least paint them orange to match your markers. Oh and a couple mr2 emblems would help especially on the hood where one belongs.

Red Hawk commented on 09 Dec 2014

Nice Mr2. What size are your rear wheels & tires? I don't know what width to get on my wheels that will fit my Mr2. They look like they are 17's, but my guess 16's?

I would love to pick your brain about your motor choice and upgrades,you've really got some performance out of what I previously thought to be a hopeless motor. I believe we're both in Colorado as well, I might have seen you run at Bandi

jdchmiel commented on 18 Feb 2013

curious why 1nz? does it actualy have stronger internals than the ~230 ft /lb long term limit of the 1zz rods?

Rick ottiz commented on 04 Apr 2013

Awesome setup man, would love to hear more about it

i do love most cars but its all in someones taste not just cars in general. im all import fanatic and i do like muscle but i mean really everyones got a camaro and a mustang. dont get me wrong ss and 5.0s are cool and all but im burnt out on them. everyone has one and everyone that does has either a big ol ego with it or their motor size is compensating for something to make them feel tougher. mostly im into DSM and JDM but other cars like 02 wrx sti and infiniti g35 & 350z and supras are cool 2

Justin Fitch commented on 20 Jan 2012

@MR2VIDS A little secret,If you ride the clutch slightly before moving,the boost will start to build.Turbo's don't really build boost when in neutral or park(just rev'n the engine). Put a load on the engine,get the power going though the drivetrain somewhat then you should start building boost at a lower RPM range. But without a strong clutch it may not last long. ex. AWD talon I rev anywhere between 3500 and 4000 RPM, ride the clutch slightly,just enough so it doesn't move,then BoostLaunchGone

7th Street Productions commented on 28 Jan 2013

Yeah that sounds reasonable! For wheels, I would probably just run RPF1's or some OG Japanese wheels and have them rebuilt, and maybe not lower it so much-30-45° driveway+Texas roads haha. I would like it to be in the 350 hp range and try to run 13's or so. If I can squeeze enough money somehow I might be able to splurge for a 97 TT Supra. It seats 5 and the 2JZ can take bigger turbos on a base engine up to about 400-500hp at 10 psi apparently :) +any MR2 considered would be outshines by yours

Justin Fitch commented on 20 Jan 2012

@CASSINOx Take off... thats all it simply is.It just takes a little practice,just rev your car to a desired amount,take off.And for instance if it seems hesitant or slow off the line,then next time give it more throttle,if ithe wheels spin too much then give it less throttle.Find the balance between the two.Try to remember the RPM range and just make adjustments and feel for what seems best to you.Maybe time yourself to a certain speed(like 0-40 for instance)Just whatever feels best to you.

MR2VIDS commented on 21 Jan 2013

That is about enough =) Market price for a '93 is between 3 to 6 grand, depending on condition. Most likely the engine needs work, so if you're going to do it right the first time, you'll want to rebuild the engine. Rebuilding/upgrading the correct way cost money, so it's about 5 grand. So far we're at 10 grand. WBK kit from Extreme Dimension is less than 2 grand, with 2 grand for bodywork to put them on. Paint is another 3 grand, and wheels are 4 grand. We are at 20 grand now give or take

MR2VIDS commented on 12 Aug 2013

Well, let me tell you what happened to the wing A drunk guy stumbled, and leaned on the center piece, and broke it in half. I gave the two pieces to my friend to fix it but then he lost them. So I got nothing to fix, and the wing is a one off TRD wing for Corolla AE101 which is only available in Asia. Sometimes it pops up on eBay Japan or Malaysia for $300 Then $250 shipping, and another $250 for install and paint. I just don't want to spent $800 to get the center piece fixed, that's all

MR2VIDS commented on 09 Oct 2013

Thank you for your kind words! :) I have more pictures if you would like to see, they are on my Instagram. My username is trd3sgte, you don't need an account to browse Anyway, the wing is a one-off TRD wing for Corolla AE101 in Asia. The center piece was broken and it cost $800 to import one. I just leave it as is and don't wanna fix it. A widebody with stock body wing looks weird to me; granted, I already have a weird looking wing, lol

MR2VIDS commented on 20 May 2011

@xAbre1200 The center piece broke =( A drunk guy leaned on it, and split it in half. The wing is from a Toyota AE101 in Japan, and Corolla's trunk is wider than MR2. The center piece had to be cut in half, took out an inch or so, put bars and bondo it. That's why it broke when it was leaned on. Too much money to import the wing from Japan, cut it and paint it. I just leave it as is, looks like a Devil's Horns :D

Jon Dodd commented on 09 Apr 2012

Dude i got massive respect for honda, infact i have owned 5 cars in the last 18month and two were civics, latest was the EJ2 (civic coupe 94) im honda mad but.... you gotta stop hating on other rides, love all cars, civics aint the best in the world but its what alot of us love, others hate because they are single minded. we all have different taste. if you only like civics then your not a true petrol head.

MR2VIDS commented on 01 Feb 2011

@detukker Yeah, what a bummer...the previous owner didn't do a good job securing the rear bumper to the body. Plus, my tires took out 2 bolts that fasten the bumper to the body since the car is too low :D Imma put the bolts back and check it. Thanks! I have ACT 6 puck clutch and pressure plate, with 11lbs Fidanza flywheel. Once it grabs, it bites hard. No slip at all so the tire takes the full torque.

MR2VIDS commented on 21 Jan 2012

@Jfitch08 I had another MR2 that has more engine mod than this, and I used to do what you just described; feather and slip the clutch to initiate boost then launch. I even pulled the hand-brake to stop the car from moving when staging, that helps a lot. Thanks for reminding me, but this one is my beater daily drive, don't plan to abuse the clutch as much as the other one =)

foodafokkarez commented on 09 Oct 2013

Love the look of your car(and the Japanese number plate that you got),I've been using a photo of your SW as a wallpaper for my ipad mini for the past few days if you don't mind.Can't you just replace it with the wings from the rev5 or are they gonna look too small for that TRD body kit.It's a shame that the wing is missing, but it still look damn good though.

MR2VIDS commented on 16 Mar 2012

@SurffSwagg9894 Yes, you can beat my car any time, any day, anywhere. I'm sure that lightweight car + all the money you can spend, are put to the engine. Maybe next time you can pull the hand brake and rev to 5 grand and dump the clutch, then you can spin the front wheels until they are done. Then upload it to Youtube so we all can see =)

MR2VIDS commented on 09 Jan 2012

@CASSINOx Oh, you meant "SPECIFIC" ;) Every engine is different, you can not do the same trick to any car. Some need more gas, some need just a little and the torque will take care of it. For 3SGTE, you want the turbo to spool when you let go the clutch, so I rev to 5,500RPM and feather the clutch for a fraction of a second then let it go.

Brandon Wike commented on 16 Mar 2012

@MR2VIDS grocery getter thats cute lmao if you want we can see how much groceries fits into mine more than yours if thatll prove your point?? and people, and gas mileage haha but yeah mines a sleeper that means all money into motor THAT is the reason i can spin further lol kinda sad when a 1.6l honda can beat a 2.4l tc

BadManors05 commented on 29 Sep 2011

@MR2VIDS its like parked in the middle of like a gas station. i saw it on mr2oc and was like damn i wish mine would look like that one day. haha. its def. clean exterior. i also came across ur credit card clearance a couple months back. and i never realized it was all the same car. nice though!

MR2VIDS commented on 24 Aug 2012

Well, this video was made almost 2 years ago. Since then I have had things added to the engine. Stock 3SGTE puts down 160HP to the wheels, 200HP to the crank. After the parts I put on, I put down 366 to the wheels, way more than 400 to the crank. So, tell me again about stock motor? =)

MR2VIDS commented on 28 Jan 2013

Stock MR2 Turbo runs 14 seconds flat, in stock form, with only 200HP to the crank, about 160HP to the wheels. If you want to be in the 13 second range, just up the boost and you don't need anything else, not even intake or exhaust. A supra would be super nice!! Always want one........
