Hello, Up for sale is a Toyota MR2 with Lexus 3VZFE Conversion. I will briefly go over the pro's and con's of the vehicle. The asking price is $10,000.

Engine rebuild owes over $5,000.00 and Brake setup cost over $1400.00 and coilovers $2,200.00 etc etc

The car has the following positives

  • Registration till March 2013
  • Rebuilt 3VZFE approximately 10,000km ago (All bearings replaced, new head-gaskets, seals, and the heads both serviced).
  • During the re-build, the bottom end of the motor was blue printed, including pressure plate, flywheel, crank, main pulleym rods and pistons, ported and flowed heads from 150cfm to just over 300cfm, oversized pistons by .5).
  • 315cc injectors (out of the 7MGE Supra NA Motor).
  • Perfect power SMT6 piggy unit to control/tune the upgrades.
  • Extra ground cables added to make the sensors more precise.
  • Stock extractors (little performance gains if aftermarket ones are added).
  • Stock Y pipe has been deleted, and they've been made into uneven head lengths to a collector, into a new 3 inch cat and 5zigen dual tip exhaust.
  • 17x7.5 ENKEI rpo1 with 215/30 tyre up front and 18x8.5 ENKEI rpo1 with 245/45 tyre in the rear
  • Upgraded brakes front - 4 piston callipers off 300zx, with lexus ls400 front discs, rear - stock gen3 callipers with Mazda rx8 rotors with braided brake lines al round and a 1 inch master cylinder making the peddle softer and the braking power a lot more stronger.
  • KYB gymkhana coil overs which were bought brand new.
  • Cusco front/rear strut braces.
  • An assortment of gauges including oil temperature, water temperature, vacuum, air flow ratio and so on.
  • Alpine type R splits, alpine head deck with a 8 inch Schneider sub all powered by an alpine amp, total stereo cost me in excess of 2500

And here are the negatives.

  • Paint is not in the best condition as it has a faded patch above the rear window, a few scratches, and the likes, that you would normally see on a 1989 model vehicle, its not bad, but it is not show room condition either.
  • Guards have been flared and painted over lightly as to stop rust
  • interior has a few broken plastics, passenger window is optionally operated by the drivers side but works fine on the passenger side
  • has no cold start, so it would involve you sitting with the car for a few minutes keeping it on idle till it was warmed up, after that shes perfectly fine
  • doors have to be locked manually, hard to explain on here, but if you came to see the car it could be shown to you in person.

Cash on pick up, or money transfer (the car will be released once money transfer clears).

I encourage people to inspect the car, but a deposit of 25% of the asking price is required before letting you take it for a test drive, however I am more than happy to take you for a drive free of charge.

Private message me for more details and if you would like any further information that has not been covered in this for sale ad. The car is located in Hichinbrook, NSW which is near Liverpool.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
