HI, I repaired the rear end of my sills on both sides of my Rev3. As i was sanding the front of the sill CRUNCH I went straight through, The sill has rotted at the front and when I looked inside the inner sill has rotted too. #-o Should I remove the sill and start again or spray the inner sills with...

Hi, Im tackling the sills aswell, my advice would be to get to halfords buy some metal grinding discs and grind the rot off. Mine has rotted thanks to a massive leak in the boot on both sides. I also had to grind the top of the rear arches too. I then went to the scrapyard and got sheet metal from o...

The rest of the car is good, you would have noticed the rust unless you look under at the sills and the arches. The welding is nearly finished and im going to underseal the whole lot plus Hammerite the rest to try and prevent the rust reappearing. I have thought about scraping and getting one thats ...

Hi, The car cost me £200. So far its not costing me too much but I am a wee bit worried about the MOT but hey Ive done my best. Ive still to paint the car and Im thinking to Plasti Dip the car that stealth matt grey look. Will post the before and after pics when the car is done and on the road. If y...

Hi, I have a Rev3 that I found rotting away in an abandoned carpark. I hunted down the owner and bought it. When I got it home I saw both sills were gone and rust had rotted the rear arches and the boot was filled with water. :pale: I ripped out the boot carpet and lining etc and the extent of the r...

Hi, Cheers for the reply. Its a project car which Im building back up as I found the car rotting in an abandoned carpark. I have never had the car up to speed to select the gear. But 1st, 2nd, 4th and reverse are all fine. 3rd i have to slam it in and 5th is abit dodgy too. I will certainly give the...

Hi,

When the engine is running I am unable to go straight to 3rd from 2nd. I have to go to 4th then 3rd. But when the engine is off I can select 3rd no problem.

Any thoughts or Solutions would be great.

Cheers

Ahhh Right cool!

I will see if I can get a set of conical nuts and see if that makes a difference.

Cheers Shinny

Hi All,

I bought a set of TSW alloys of gumtree which I was told fitted a MR2 REV3. I havent got a clue when it comes to alloys but when I tried to fit the wheel the 5 threads were not long enough for the oem bolts hold onto.

Any suggestions will be a great help.
Thanks

Hi,

I fitted a set of plasma dials to the car and there is a annoying buzz from the inverter which is connected to the dials. I wrapped the inverter in a jiffy bag and tape which has reduced the buzz greatly.

Could the jiffy bag heat up and catch fire tho??
Im not sure.

Cheers

Yeah I think im gonna get someone who can weld and see if they think its salvagable.

If not do you think I would get much to break the car or just put it in the scrapyard?

cheers

Cheers for the replies I'm going to take pics of the rust and see what you guys think. I really want to get the car on the road and it is a project. But I don't want to do all this work for the MOT guy to say it can't be fixed. I ran up the temp on the engine and then I heard a hiss noise. My son st...

Hi, I saved a Rev3 that was sitting alone in a disused locked up car park. It hadnt moved in years and I drove by it for years till I found out eventually who the owner was and I bought it off him. Believe it or not the need its battey charged and the tyres blown up. I turned the key and it burst in...

Cheers for the replies :thumleft: Im going to get one of those steering wheels at the weekend and fit it to my 95 Rev3. I dont have an airbag so I will just fit the horn. Karl I really like the pic of the interior lights in the dark reflecting off the engine lid. Car looks awesome. :clap: Thanks again

Hi,

This has probably been covered but can a gen7 Celica steering wheel fit the MR2 Rev3?

I saw a picture with one fitted, but Im not sure if the pic was photoshop'd.

Any info would be great

Cheers

Fair enough..Lesson learnt! Cheers tho for the info.

what if i used a turbo ecu from the same engine?

HI,

Would Rev 3 Turbo Injectors in a Rev3 N/A 3SGE Engine make any difference?

Would I get more BHP or would it knacker the engine?

Cheers
