car is having boost issues as of yesterday. i am going to get it diagnosed, probably needs a new turbo, which will be fixed before sale, car also has a very small oil leak and vac leak, both of which will be fixed before sale.

email me @ k2celica97@aol.com or IM me on AIM @ k2mr2t91

dude that totally sucks that you have to sell your mr2t.... what you going to be getting?

ah man that sucks.. Im hopfully going to look at one today... good luck selling it

thanks guys, i have it up for sale, but if no one buys it ill end up keeping it. I will be getting a WRX if i sell the MR2, i need something more practical and i can use during the winter.

Can you describe ur boosting issues?

Im in the market for a mr2 turbo...but im looking in the 8k range. I also want a color other than white. Sweet car though.

supersprynt, you have AIM dont you? when i get some free minutes we'll discuss our boosting issues lol

k2mr2t91 - AIM

what if someone has a WRX
would you trade and pay money for it?

my buddy is selling his 2002 WRX with some mods done to it...
not sure if he'd be interested in the 2, but yea...just curious

IM just curious why your asking so much.. cause It seems you car is only worth around 3k .. plus some for some extra.. but how much you put into it.. I kinda think your asking way to much ..

heh ill do a trade , my car for urs lol. o but i seroiusly would if u were interestd in that. i loveeeee mr2s

KBB is a four letter word on MR2 sites, you say KBB and your credit goes by by lol

i would be more than willing to entertain a trade + cash for an 02 WRX
consynx. can you or your buddy IM me to talk it over a bit? like i said the car has had some boost problems the last few days, but because im looking to sell, i am taking it to the dealership monday to have everything checked out and probably just have them do the repairs. i will keep you guys informed.

11,000 is a very fair price. i bought the car about a year ago for 7500, back then it had a defective CD player, poor paint, and not nearly the attention it has gotten now. ive spent 2000 on paint and bodykit install (which for a bolt on fits nearly flawless) about 700 for the kit itself, 350 for the alpine head unit, about 150 on the gauges, and thats not to mention the countless hours and dollars ive spent on maintanence and repair. ive spent nearly a grand in the last year on maintanence.

EDIT: not to mention the car will most likely have a brand new or completely Toyota certified refurbished turbo when it is sold. that alone will be about 700-1000

found the information reguarding the rebuild from the previous owner, heres some things i missed, these were all done last spring/summer:

ARP Headstuds
Head rebuilt to factory spec
New Toyota Oil and Water pumps
all Toyota gaskets
Balanced/Blueprinted injectors
Rebuilt clutch master and slave cylinders
New Front rotors w/ EBC brake pads
Goodridge SS brakelines

update: after inspecting the boost problem it seems my wastegate actuator bar broke, the bearings seem to be going as well, so instead of having it rebuilt again im going to either be getting a new CT26 with a 62-1 upgrade, or getting a JDM ceramic CT20B turbo. this will be installed on the car before sale and does not effect price

Oh man. Get a WRX...worth every penny and if you can pinch out the extra bit of money needed each month for the STi go for it. I'm thinking about selling all my cars I have now and getting a new STi.

BTW, thread related now, that's an awesome deal for anyone interested in an MR2t. Whata great deal on such an awesomely quick car. You see lots of N/A 90-95 deuces but not many turbo. If I was actually in the mood to look for something else than what I have I'd sell my Clipse and Celi and buy it. Just can't right now as I just got the Clipse a few months back and my Celi is my backup car.

The only reason I was sayoing not worth it is, cause I just found a 91-t .. with 166k for only 3k ..Oh plus another 3k for a badass engine up-grade. then a lil extra for other stuff.. your not near 11k.. but I wish you the best of luck..

this car is more than worth 11k, i dont appriciate the accusation of trying to get more than the car is worth but that is your opinion. this car does not have a single exterior blemish on it, the paint is fresh, the kit has been driven with for one season, the wheels, though worn and used, are VERY rare and quite expensive and could be easily refinished, the interior is in EXCELLENT shape for a 91, the only problem spot is the seats which you could expected from 13 year old leather, but are not nearly in the type of condition i usually see them in. the motor is rebuilt with a mere 8k miles on it, and not to mention the car will be sold most likely with a brand new CT-26 from the dealer. the t-tops are leak free and the t-top shades are in incredable shape. also to the best of my knowledge (i never actually checked EVERY pannel), but it is numbers matching.

car is now getting a MINT CT20B turbocharger... and is no longer for sale >>

dizamn. Jealous.

its going to be way slow..cause 3sgte's are slow anyways! >> >> >>

topic closed, no sense chit chatting about a car no longer for sale.
