Well this is an 86 MR2 I picked up for $400.00..The Main Rod bearings were gone when I got it but I replaced them but since it was ran after they were shot the crankshaft was damagad and I need a crankshaft now...To begin its an N/A 1.6 16v DOHC 4AGE it has around 180K miles..My plans are to get my hands on a crankshaft or to do the 4AGZE swap I'm not sure yet but her it is Tell me what you think..
This is where I picked it up in Idaho..I haven't got shots of it here at home since its been on jack stands since it got here.
Well I got the new crank shaft but now i need pistons, I pulled out the motor and turns out the Rod off piston 1 is all messed up.
The day I pulled out the 4age
Since the motor is out and currently looking for its parts I decide to might as well paint it since it can you a paint job, and heres my progress. As for paint I still havent figured out what color, I'm leaning towards black but Slate also looks sick so still undecided.
Removed the spoiler and sanded it down a bit
Me removing the tail lights and sanding.
Took off the Front bumper and lip.
The lip, as you can see the left side is messed up
The lip fixed up after i got my hands on it.
Current state, you can see my other baby in the back
Cat had this dent on the left tail light but got it all fixed as you can see in the right image.
