also; "your jack will always be centered" is misleading. You should always turn the wheels of the jack just before it's fully loaded to the orientation that the jack will start to travel IN ORDER to stay centered. many novice "mechanics" total things when they let those pivoting wheels remain misaligned as the jack raises the vehicle and the resistance of the jack's crooked wheels being planted into a crevice or simply perpendicular enough to it's travel path so as to be able to stop the jack from rolling forward WILL start to slide the foot of the jack off the frame as it lifts the car and then you end up slamming down the weight of the car into something you really didn't want to with a raised jack.

Great video just one thing that bugged me is that you shouldn’t use a torque wrench as a breaker bar since it’s designed to tighten bolts versus loosen them. It’s probably fine if you’re loosening a bolt that’s less than 150 ft/lbs but I wouldn’t risk it since a breaker bar is stronger and much cheaper to replace once broken. Great video besides that. I like how you walk through every step.

I live on the small island of Curacao, and I just bought a MRS yesterday. 2003 Japanese right hand drive, 6 speed manual. These cars are very rare on the island, maybe 4 in total. This is great video, please make more. You got a new subscriber.

Thanks, your video helped me clean out my drains. No more water in the storage box. I bought a new set of clips off eBay for £2.50 prior to doing the job and recommend doing so as my old clips almost all broke

I got my MR2 from a dude who kinda riced it so it's got a CAI, header-back exhaust that rasps, strut bars, missing the frunk plastics, it's somehow lowered but the suspension looks stock so I'm afraid to jack it up and see cut springs, and finally permanent ears because the top ripped in several places but especially the stitching where the ears form. It's too late!

I purchased my 2000 just under 3 months ago and it spent it's first night out in the rain in my ownership. Found about half gallon of water in my rear storage. I have to say, unclogging the drain hole and watching the water pour out is so satisfying. Thanks alot

If as you suggest spring compressors should only be used in threes why are they sold in pairs? Burying them in sand isn't going to do a lot for the top mount bearings! Easier to use the bottom "claw" of the compressor clamping up on the bottom plate.
