The problem with the MRS was the pre-cat design on the 1ZZ was bad from the start and they never fixed it. My brother's had pre-cat failure. It was replaced under warranty but the engine was shot. It burned 1 quart of oil very 3K miles and spewed out black smoke under heavy acceleration. It's a shame because the car was great fun.
