Suggestion on the studs studs not bottoming out, put an appropriate sized ball bearing in the blind hole to bottom them out on, then torqueing the nuts won't be an issue.
It’s funny you mention about the 11/13/15/18 sizes. I used to buy older vibes and part them out, it was insane how many bolts were swapped to these janky sizes. I’d be under the car just screaming why!
I wish the JIS sizes were easier to get for most people. Online store like belmetric.com/ can supply everything quite easily but it takes longer than just getting a bolt locally. But it frustrates the hell out of me to run across goofy hardware on a car.
Anyone that isn't a Japanese car manufacturer. JIS stands for Japanese Industrial Standard and has all kinda of really cool things in the spec that makes Japanese cars a lot easier to work on. i don't understand why other manufacturers haven't adopted a similar standard.
@@WilliamJasonSherwood look how long it took, and is taking for Americans to adopt the metric system. It is better in every way! Even the bolts are better, “semi” fine thread for more holding force, drill size for a tap is just diameter minus thread pitch. Super easy
Marc, I'm so glad you and Alex are working so hard to support this platform and keep it living!
I'm having a lot of fun doing this, as long as people keep buying parts i will keep supporting the platform.
@@FrankensteinMotorworks here's hope'n people do. Anytime I need an MR2 part you sell, I buy it from you.
Now I want to 2ARFE swap my 97 Corolla. You've inspired me.
Brilliant! True German Engineering from an American in love with Japanese cars!
I don't own an MR2 but I'm watching 👍🏽
Nice back drop. Almost thought that engine was magically floating lol
But the better question is, did you figure out what kind of engine it was? :)

Do you make conversion momunts for mk3 Mrs /spider and what gearbox with lsd and do you need custom driveshafts or any u k specialist than thanks
Bro am trying to find a 6 hole flywheel for the 3s engine online can u send me a link perhaps?
The ACT 600390 works great.
Are the upgraded head bolts for when you eventually boost the 2ar, or needed for your NA build?
I'm using it on the NA version but i have intentions on getting stupid with the fuel types in my experimentations.
headers in stock for quite some time. six months later. they are sold out.
It's temporary, they will be back in stock before the end of the year. I do my best to avoid going out of stock but sometimes i screw up.
@@FrankensteinMotorworks dont worry mate. you are doing just fine. i love how you are coming up with all the answers on those motors for us.
Fuck me I was working on my girlfriends Jeep and it used 19, 17 and 15mm bolts! WTF Who does that!

@@FrankensteinMotorworks It does baffle me that more don't just use the JIS! It's brilliant.
