WTB 91-93 mr2

hey guys looking to buy a mr2 turbo. looking to spend a MAX of 3000. so if anyone knows anyone selling one let me know please!! the cleaner the better and the lower the miles the better. main concern would no oil leaks, decent interior and decent body. Already checked craigslist and nothing to great on there.

It's going to be hard to find a clean turbo for that price range , most still go for around 5-6k

I'd keep an eye out on MR2oc.com, good luck finding a clean one. I think the last time I saw a clean one pop up it was still going for 6-7k. When I first bought my 93 turbo back in '01 I paid 7.5k and when it was totaled in '07 my insurance gave me 7k, just wanted to give you an idea of how well the MKII retains its value. If I had the money and space for another car I'd pick up another one in a heartbeat.

im running an fp18g td05 on e85. there is a bit of lag but nothing to crazy. probably the biggest turbo i would run on a ej205 and not worry about massive lag. check out my garage i have my full mod list on there
