The lines on this edition of the MR2 are just gorgeous! A lot of people go overboard when they get an older car, in terms of the aesthetic changes they make, but this style of the MR2 just looks amazing on its own. The swap of the engine to a V6 is just the power that the small chassis needs to really be sensational in terms of performance, and I can only imagine what this cars power to weight ratio is lol. also, this doesn't sound like a Nissan V6, possibly a Lexus IS V6 maybe… Not sure. Either way, A ++++++++++++++
@@ilyas5708 The engine swapped into that car will be the 2GR-FE, a transverse layout engine with port only fuel injection. The Lexus IS350 has a 2GR-FSE, which is an inline configuration with a direct-and-port injection fuel system; not much difference, but the block, pistons, and heads are different. That said, you could tear both engines down, mix the parts together, and still wind up with two running engines at the end of the day provided the heads and pistons stay together with the direct injection system. The transverse requirement comes down to transmission compatibility in the chassis, while the injection system changes cause a conflict that has not been solved from either a stock or aftermarket ECU standpoint. Over in Europe, the likely source for that engine is the Lexus EX350 SUV; here in the States, they're much more plentiful coming in Avalons, Camrys, Sienna mini vans, Rav4s, and a few other Toyota and Lexus platforms.
im 14 and have a dream. I really want that mr2 and if anything im gonna have a similar build. lets hope for the best. They called it " the poor man's ferrari"
Keep working bro, I’m 22 and have had mine for just over a year now. It’s a Black Rev 3 3sge jap import and I only paid £1500 for it. After the work and the mods I’ve done on it it’s definitely worth 4 to 5 now. Just keep your head down and start saving now and you’re dream will be a reality before you know it👊
I bought mine when I was 17 a few years ago for £1100 by buying old electronics, doing them up and selling em on eBay. My best advice would be to find a side hobby that you’re interested in whilst you’re at school and learn the trade. Buy a reliable rust free NA and not a turbo and then gradually build on it up to the swap 😉 I know the feeling of dreaming of ownership during high school, you’ll have one someday!
@@S5MIKEY V6s in general are considered to be unpleasant sounding engines. How the 2gr Can sound SO good and the Nissan VQ can sound so bad. The VQ40 is an exception. I have a Nissan Xterra which has the VQ40. It isn't pretty sounding but it DOES sound burly, which for a truck isn't bad
This is hands-down, one of the best sounding cars that you can get under $40,000!! it’s not raspy and annoying like a Honda or a Z, It’s just perfect and orgasmic…

The sound of that WRX’s turbo BOV @ 2:08 brought nostalgia in my soul !!! It sounds just like the turbo noises from Grand Turismo 2
Toyota camry 3.5l v6, maybe?
That thing sounds great! Nice swap

poor man's ferrari, I don't know. It cost a lot more than money for a MR2 like this.
This car wont be cheap in 4 years time depending on where you live. Prices already going through the roof.
When he still had the Berk exhaust it was the best sounding MR2 I had ever heard. Still sounds sick with the 4 tip exhaust though
yea the berk is better, higher pitched

That rear ended/exhaust/under spoiler…I need that all in my life. I’m assuming it’s all custom.
It's a grams diffuser pretty sure.
@@mushlove6933 Thank you!!
I can listen to this all day!
2gr V6 engine. It’s the same engine with the lotus evora and exige.
that sounds absolutely mental
Is this the 3.5 Camry/Lotus V6? I recognize the sound and it's amazing! 💗🤟
Yes it is, also have this engine in my Lexus IS350
@stvtic hahahahaha
2GR swap
better sounding than any of the v6’s in f1
This is hands-down, one of the best sounding cars that you can get under $40,000!! it’s not raspy and annoying like a Honda or a Z, It’s just perfect and orgasmic…
That thing looks like it pulls damn hard.
I’m doin it can’t wait. Hope to be done in a few months!
Love myself some v6
The Berk Muffler has a higher sound pitch than the other muffler.
Awesome, great work
Sounds so good
that thing looks and sounds so sexy, looks like it is setup well too with the suspension etc
This is my favourite car
Nice Exige mate
He has a pretty good exhaust load but not cracking or metal flexing, note is better than titanium exhaust
Amazing wonderful car!!
Great sound..
So amazing
MY GAWD!!!
The tunnel shot... 👊😔
What is that front bumper can't find it anywhere 😢
I can’t help but notice all the utility poles.
