    I love seeing people keep the 4g63 alive! Let me know if you ever figure out a plan to get the A/C system working.Oh I just checked my build post(I haven't looked at it in years), you already got the motor mounts figured out. My Project is still alive and running, I just don't post. I never...

    Update:It is impossible to set the timing using a timing light. Hours spent and time wasted it is not possible. I may have to cut a hole in the firewall just to verify and set the timing.

    SWith Trying to go AWD in an mr2 it is going to require a custom casing for the gear box as well as some good reverse engineering since the rear diff and transfercase are completely opposite side on a dsm. You will also have to run a fuel cell or something since a driveshaft is not going to...

    Paint is good from far but far from good. Since I just have to get the gauges and tune taken care of to be drive-able, let me know if you are curious on anything on the build.also always working on projects so the garage is always a mess. exhaust + one of my ugly mounts as long as they...

    Since my motor mounts are booger welded I didn't take any pictures. When they break or I redesign them or have to take them out I will take some pictures.

    so I ended up finding reasonable cables from https://jb-custom-fabrication.myshopify.com/. 96" cables seem to work best as far as wrapping all the way around. One had to be cut and modified for the 2" stroke and rod out length. The cable holder on the rear also had to be moved back at the...

    update: finally got around to pulling the transmission back out and apart besides the reverse idler sleeve bearing needing to be cleaned up there wasn't much wrong but after some searches I found out that I put the syncros for 5th and reverse were in the incorrect order. I will have more...

    Quick update I had to get two different(but same part number) shaft holder tools to take the transmission apart, i didn't find anything wrong with it. I put the transmission back together and there seems to be an issue with the shifter levers and cables, I am working on the problem but other...
