    mraw112's 20v blacktop 7age mr2 build

    Ive had the mr2 since last 2 Novembers ago, but its always been a slow project due to money always being tight. This is when i first bought it. I picked it up for 300$ and it needed a lot of work. I got it home and slowly started taking it apart. The gas tank had a hole in it so this...

    Why you change oil

    I recently picked up this 2.3 duratec engine for 100$ which I was told had a spun bearing. I bought it really for no reason. I just think its a bad *** engine, It replaced the 4age as the formula Atlantic motor, The long block only weights like 170-180lbs. and its only 100$. One of the best...

If you feel that any information in this is incorrect...
