Project underdog is alive! From a bunch of parts scattered around the garage to a living breathing boosting street machine. Building this car is and driving it for the first time is an experience I will never forget. Not that it's anywhere near finished...nor will it ever be :) It's a project car. But a giant milestone has been reached. A completely weird combo of a previously NA Toyota MR2 mk1 aw11 combined with a boosted 2nd gen 4AFE egine and an E51 transmission from a supercharged 4agze mr2 mk1. Half of this car is custom, the other half are parts from a Renault Clio, Alfa Romeos, Audi 100 diesel :) But the combo seems to work really well so far. What a joy. Thank you everyone. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Also, this video has English subtitles you can use because the audio is poor at some spots.

Big day! The audio is poor in some places but the vid has English subs. Check out the businesses that helped make this build and its content possible: www.aemelectronics.com/ www.weldspeed.com.au/ midshipgarage.com/ www.maxpeedingrods.com/ www.mrpltd.co.nz/ Once more, feel free to ask any questions you might have, or alternatively if you want I can try doing a Q&A video. There will be more content in the future of course, especially regarding the software side of things, since I mostly covered the hardware so far. I also hope to do a proper POV no talking drive soon.

I have a question for someone who wants to turbocharge an engine that doesn't have much aftermarket support like forged pistons, connecting rods etc, is it possible to use parts made for other engines that have the same piston dimensions?

@teamphashash 10 місяців тому
​@@1vend7I have friends who use opel superboss pistons on bmw e30 2.9 conversions so I believe the simple answer is yes.Obviously a lot more research is required on your part.Believe it or not,the old internet forums are very helpful.Most combinations have been discussed for many cars.

Seeing your face of terror on that first full throttle pull was gold. You're completely right though, those moments after you've put so much work into your car and it's come together and it's everything you've expected and more, those are the reasons we do what we do. Much love man, you worked your ass off for this.

Ive owned 7 AW11 MR2 cars. One of which I did a 20v 4age silver top swap with the 6speed manual and LSD that came in it from the trueno levin the engine came from. Took a bit of minor fabrication to make the shift linkage work as well as some colling piping custom work here and there. Other than that it was pretty much direct swap. I did have the ecu and had a wiring harness made by phoenix tuning made to help facilitate the ease of the swap. Still to this day one of my favorite cars I have ever driven. These little cars are so underrated.
