That's one of the most striking SW20 examples I've seen in a long time.
Dan Coleman-Goss search TH-cam for Petrolicious MR2. The red one in that video is incredible.
Justin will be happy to hear that
RegularCars he'll be happy to hear about the red petrolicious mr2? Lol.
I want a Sard MC8 review next...If there's still any around lol.
@@RegularCars I'm just as happy being able to see such a slick machine
This was once my dream car. Its still pretty high up there on the toys list
haaaaagbaaaaaard
I seeeee youuuu
HagbardCeline I wish if I could own an MR2 but MR2's are freaking rare in Bahrain. I only saw one ZZW30 at the US Navel Base. In comparison, I saw plenty of MK4/MK3/MK2 Supra's on the road.
HagbardCeline please tell me how you improvised?
Definitely on my mid life crisis car list
I have one, they are very fun cars :-) get one! The MR2 community is awesome too!
Oh roman you killed that at the end...puddle o mud

Pleasantly suprised to hear that. Also, cut the chatter Wardog 3
YEEEEEEEEEEES I'm glad I wasn't the only one
dude straight slayed it
Last time I was this early Mr. Regular had a Toyota Echo
"Toyota headgasket."
Mk3 Supra we remember thee... uhh... well, at least Toyota learned their lesson.
Hmm, is there a specialised mkIII Supra shop, as is Prime for MR2s?
I'm unaware of this with the MK3, did it just keep blowing headgaskets? What was the problem?
AeRiaL Basically the 7M-GTE (the engine Americans were stuck with) werent able to handle the turbo they shoehorned in, so the headgaskets blew. Extremely frequently. Same situation as the MR2 apparently. Some fellas figured out the correct amount of pressure to torque wrench the headgasket to make it... better, but eh... It had other problems as well, I guess with the fuel pump.
Toyota made the legendary and over engineered 1JZ (Japan only... woo...) in response to this. A lot of people just swap out their 7M for a 1JZ or 2JZ.
TheAnalXylophone Driftmotion has become the one stop shop for A70 Supras these days. They've even gotten into producing their own parts.
Ahh, that sucks. Didn't realise the 7M was that sketch to work with.
Cheers for the explanation c:
I'm currently grinding through a paper for my senior design project due in 4 hours and this just made my night so much better.
I wish you the best of luck and college is not for everyone and will be more liberating, fun and less stressful while more stressful at the same time
billy joe i don't miss that shit. Knock it out dude.
It doesn't matter if you own an MR2, a GTR or a lambo, a Delorean will always steal the show if present.
im wreaking my brain trying to think of a single car more show stealing than a delorean
Only a slightly different delorean will steal the show from a delorean.
antsolja: Probably no other production car will steal the show from a DeLorean - one would need to show up in a world-championship winning race car, the Tumbler or a Main Battle Tank to steal its show...
A DB5, just.
Jose Perez II You're damn right.
Bttf replica>stock delorean
That's the cleanest MR2 I've seen!
I have to give it to Justin, he did a fantastic job of restoring that mr2. The paint job is phenomenal, the rims compliment the car, the body kit is nice. Interior looks nice. 10/10 gorgeous.
Damn look at those clean lines, this must be the best looking mr2 I have ever seen.
Thing looks so good I love them all . I love all the Japanese sports cars from the 80s and 90s .
ANOTHER MR2 VIDEO YES YES YES
Been wanting an MR2 to build for a while now, much like this one. Thanks for the review and resource.
God, that MR2 is beautiful.
Love it! Beautiful car! And I like this format a lot better where you actually go over the mods and don't get too extreme with the commentary.
The SW20 does have it's Back To The Future moment in Initial D. Sure, it's nowhere near the Trueno, but any respectable ID fan remembers Kai Kogashiwa and his Irohazaka jump on his SW20.
Fuck trueno/AE86 circlejerk caused by that anime. MR2s and Celica GTFours are much better cars than AE86 or Supra ever was... thanks to this stupid circlejerking it's impossible to get AE86 or Supras for proper prices. Instead they cost 3-4 times as much as they ever should, but then MR2 and Celica's dodged the bullet of mainstream circlejerking......
The Trueno is a slow donkey...
Let's just hope nobody tries it IRL without increasing rideheight and putting rally mods on one.
Awesome commentary - fun, informative and at a good pace.
Tavarish would be jealous with this. He got the nicer taillights too
This car is very, VERY nicely done.
This was a really enjoyable video 😊 that blue mr2 was beautiful 🤩
Holy hell, that is a beautiful looking MR2. Cleanest one I think I have seen in forever. My little bro will be super jealous since he was an MR2 driver for around 10ish years.
I'm in LOVE with the look of that engine.
I will never tire of regularMR2reviews
Oh sweet seeing one of these and the shop you mentioned. Will head over to their site to see what they have.
That's a really nice build. Well done.
Glad to see another MR2 Video. Love these cars (especially the SW20), and I nearly bought one but I went with a ‘97 328i instead. Still would love to own one someday
It looks so good!
You could have never said this thing wasn't stock and I would have never known. Very tasteful mods done to this beauty. Even the non-period correct parts look natural.
WOW that exhaust sounds great!
I'm so happy. You made this video. I'm currently saving for an sw20 as we speak.
WORD!
Here's my modded Snap Oversteer mobile.
ToyGTone Clueless
270 snap oversteers to the rear wheels
"Geddy style intercooler, Freddy lip and sideskirts" get it together Mr. Regular! Its Greddy***
itsallac0nspiracy Not sure what you mean by that. I was just joking.
Jeremy Williams you're a fucking idiot, Freddy is a common term for fake Greddy. It's eBay but in the style of a Greddy. Learn before you correct people.
Clicked on this video not realizing it's a RegularCar review. My excitement grew 4 levels at that moment lol!
Very nicely done. I would do it in matte grey or something, but I dig this. One of my best friends had one with a better aftermarket turbo with about 350whp and it was one of the most fun cars I've ever driven.
I want that color on my mr2. This is actually how I want mine to look. The circle shifter, the kouki lights, rpf1s... yum
I saw you guys shooting this about a month or so ago and was wondering if it was you. Hell yeah.
MR2: My first car crush! Great little machines.
Yes papi regular
As someone who owned a '91 Turbo that put down about 430-450 whp by the time I finally sold it, I'd put the trap-door air volume sensor up there pretty high on problems, as well. Less for reliability reasons and more as a roadblock to tuning the motor once modified. Other annoyance include access to the fuel tank, the electro-hydraulic power steering system (all of it), the cable clutch, and the double pulley throttle/cruise motor. And then there's the pneumatic-controlled variable intake manifold, the 5th fuel injector in the throttle, the crazy pneumatic staged boost control and relief valve... the list goes on. This car was literally a dumping ground for all the crazy engineering projects Toyota had in the early 90's.
Most everything you listed was corrected with the JDM 94+ MR2s and the gen3 engine. No more AFM, TVIS, or cold start injector. The MR2 never had a cable clutch though, always hydraulic.
Yeah, and that would be fantastic except we didn't get any of that here. Hydraulic clutch? What did I replace the bushing on with a brass bearing then... shift linkage cable? It's been about 8 years since I sold mine off.
Best video yet 👍🏻
The great thing about living in South East Asia is that rcr uploads in the middle of the day
Kai Kogashiwa 2.0 :P
Coilover Killer.
@@thenutbucket5971 Ha!
It's definitely my favorite MR2 generation.
Best MR2 I’ve ever seen! 😍
Man this was a solid video. From r
Roman's singing to Mr. Regular geek in out about mr2s. Thanks for the info about the inner coolers.
Beautiful you have done quite well. Toyota if you are listening keep the breed alive.
Muddle of Pud?
2 years later...the MR2 legend grows.
Thanks for including Trade Me mate. Chur bro!
That's a nice car dude!!!
Didn't have morning wood, now I do.
Thanks RCR
Man this car looks cool!
These guys are right in my neighborhood, always got tons of MR2s sitting around
One of, if not the best, looking car y'all have ever covered.
I always loved that duel exhaust system.
Very clean mr2 👌😎
Omfg this looks beautiful in blue 😍😍
Beautiful color!
this was like prime RCR, probable top all time episodes material
Oh man, Puddle of Mudd cover at the end. Such fond memories hearing that when playing Ace Combat 5. YUS
Can we talk about how much influence AvE has on modern TH-camrs?
Dickhead Bear instructions unclear dick caught in ceiling fan
Wow. I think that's my dream car -- a properly tuned 90's MR2 that is already fixed-up so I don't have to do it myself.
I think these cars have aged really well. Still look great today even with little modification. I need one
I have one newly in my driveway but never get a ride in it for now! ... Thanks for your interresting videos.
As a car enthusiast ;)
I never thought I would see Kai Koshigawa in the United States.
Now thats a great looking SW20
I saw a Fiero in New Zealand last week
Just saying
Some Kiwi My uncle used to own a 1986 Pontiac Fiero SE back in the day and it's currently in my grandpa's garage collecting dust and waiting to get "restomod" by me.
Someone brought a fiero to the RCR Auckland meet. LHD and everything. Even Mr Regular himself was surprised
wow. I have never seen one ever here in nz, yet I've owned 2 sw20's.
FUCK you
Lovely car
Such a tasty build
Once I saw this blue MR2, I KNEW it was from Prime Driven. I immediately tapped to watch this video
this thing is damn pretty!, i wish mr2s did have a bigger fanbase but the cult following they have is good enough i guess, and god bless prime for putting all the parts in one place that will make things alot easier
Nooo please have them lowkey till I get mine 😒
Oh my. Roman is so fucking good in this outro it gives me a goosebumps.
Spotted one in the company's parking lot. I saw it and thought to myself damn I need one too some day. I saw it before online and videos don't really do it justice.
Tasteful built. Very nice MR2!
Hi Mr. Regular, keep it up man.
I love that you used doobley doo for description! 😍
I love how The MR2 and the Silvia (especially the S13) are such amazing survivors in the modern age.
I can attest to all of this. I'm going through hell sorting my car out right now. Bought my mr2 turbo as it stood, "someone else's project". I think I do have a blown headgasket, and the intercooler fans I had did not work. I actually just bought a little specialty rad hose from Prime MR2, and they had to wait on the part from Toyota. He communicated this greatly though, and even refunded my shipping and sent a key tag in as well. I asked for neither haha. Great company, difficult car..
Here's to keeping them on the road.
Was about to sleep but the release of this video woke me harder than snap oversteer....
YOU know what time it is.
Nice Corolla steering wheel!
I was driving to my grandma's and I found a mint 1993 MR2 turquoise 5 speed NA. It was even owned by an older gentleman and we ended up agreeing on a price and I was back the next day to pick it up. Unfortunately I sold it because I was a little too tall to be able to comfortably fit and the seat wouldn't recline any more. It was a truly beautiful car to look at and to drive.
Hahhaahah. the songs!!!!!! Good Vid. Thanks for posting.
Now this is a well done custom.
Damn, that's clean. Pretty much the ideal MR2.
As an MR2 owner, I fully support this video!
Ive heard this in previous videos, in PA, 15 years is a classic, 25 in antique
Oh my lord, it's perfect.
Love that Puddle of Mudd ending
RPF1's look good on everything.
Indeed! I'd rather get an RPF1 over the too-common and significantly more expensive TE37s.
Need more MR2s!
I cant even explain why (or how much) i love the mr2...
Look at Project Binky on here. The whole drive train from this car expertly crammed into a original Mini Cooper shell. Took 4 yeasr to do both amazing and funny
It's Finally becoming a thing to have a clean MR2
Haha! It took a minute to catch that the Roman's first parody was of "Radio."
XanCrews by who?
Watt White. Zack Ryder's best theme.
That is one beautiful car
this car is gorgeous
Car looks rather nice. Mods appear to be done in a tasteful and relatively clean way, so kudos to that guy.
And regarding that Delorean thing... The odd guy with the mildly boosted LX9 resto-mod Fiero probably gets even less attention than the comparable equivalent MR2. (Since the car looks mostly stock with the visible changes in the engine bay being understated.) Sometimes the art of doing it right is to appreciate it for yourself.
I got an older guy across the street from me with a original bone stock red 94 MR2 with only 70,000 miles and he bought it brand new
‘Member when this show’s bit involved things like Mr. Regular sitting on the can implying he was going to use a power drill with a spade bit to relieve his constipation?
Good times.
That’s the most beautiful mr2 I’ve ever seen
I remember when Prime was cool and did swaps and had good prices.
