I figure half the price of the FR-S could make a pretty nice swapped MR-S, and still keep it reliable.
Was it a swapped 6 speed, too? It could have been what was done to the linkage. Converting a FWD trans linkage to an MR RWD trans linkage could be problematic if not done properly.
If it was a 2ZZGE into a 5 speed car, that could have been a engine/trans mis-match problem.
Other issue, is how they did the exhaust manifold/exhaust.
In my case it would be a nice daily driver with a fun-factor close to what the FR-S is supposed to be.
Supra is the fast car, but it's a bit rough.

it was a six speed and i dont know too much of the details on the swap. it would be a cool daily driver but i just have it in the back of my head that forced induction would be much cheaper although not as cool. i probably sound lke a fanboy but there is so much more information and aftermarket for the miata that aside from the cool factor, mr2s seem lacking. like ive said, i really hope the ft86 is what i want it to be.
