Great job. I'm sure your courage to take on each component has taught you a lot. I just bought a 2001 that needs to be brought back to life. Great video.

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Thanks, it did take some time, but I have learned a lot!

[@heilong79]

Nice build and happy to see it was kept simple. Really like the custom front lip.

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Thank you! Miss this car! Best car for the money

[@ShenmueAtheist]

To this day, your MRS build is still my favorite. Clean, not over styled with crazy body kits, its not an almost unusable 500hp monster, and everything was done with quality and taste in mind. I've used your build as a bit of a template for my 04 and will be happy if my build turns out even half as good as yours :)

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Thanks! Very nice to hear :)

Don't blame my 2ZZ Rotrex MRS ;)

Awesome video budd....I have a SMT in the same colour....I'd personally change hardtop to blue and i also wrapped a v matte black on bonnet and it looks real good....I love the vents you have too :)

Hey Kasper! Today I bought my mr-2, taking this video as inspiration for my new project :)

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Congratulation! 😃

[@pedrocaseiro95]

This is awesome! What a great transformation, your hard work really paid off! Only thing I would not do is remove the steering wheel logo and paint the wheels in silver but that's just personal taste!

[@markletts8802]

SUPERB..👏🇬🇧

[@jamieliston4915]

Hi Kasper, I would love to know where you got the after market headers from as well as the air intake. I loved the video!!

can you do a video/list of the mods that you have done to your mr-s? Also amazing transformation!

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Thanks! I have sold the car, but this video gets the most of the mods🙂 should have made more videos when i had the car!

[@Patches62]

Very nice my friend

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Thanks

[@hamsterbrigade]

Where did you get the custom front lip?

[@bibana06]

That MR2 looks gorgeous ! The dedication you put into it is amazing. Did you strip and paint all the parts to remove Rust? How did you et such a clean châssis ? You are inspiring me to do the same kind of stuff on mine :D

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Thanks! Yes, was a lot of work but it turned out great 😊

[@bibana06]

@@kasper.kristoffersen You're welcome ! I would definitely have done the same to mine if I had the required tools and skills. Instead, I just removed all plastic caps, sanded the rust, put rust converter on sway bars and engine mounts, then painted it all. It does not look as good but the rust is gone and it is below the car so no one is gonna see it ;). I also own a Peugeot just like you used to^^

[@jeii8841]

Nice upgrades (apart from the eyebrows?) Do you get trouble with your wheels robbing?

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Thanks, the eyelids was removed due to bad fitment. No rubbing with the wheels

She is so beautiful 😍

[@sila0312]

hi, i just bought mine last week, and i really want the front lip that you got, can you remember where you bought it or a link maybe ?

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Congratz! No webside, there is a guy in UK that makes them, Patrick Chambers, you find him on mr2 spyder group on facebook

[@fortheloveofnoise9298]

The spoiler looked best all blue.

[@sbauroth]

Tell me more about the silver rims you had on the car. I love that look. Size? Make? Thank you!

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

It was some BM racing 6,5x16"

[@Zeriel00]

LOL kinda disappointing that the saga ends with you buying a Lotus haha, also you must really like Camel :p

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

[@Zenoforever]

Your car looks awesome! Where did you get the front lip?

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Thanks! custom made by a guy named patrick chambers

[@dimitrisagg.5850]

Very nice job man how much you spend for all of that?

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Thanks, not sure😊

[@Drebin]

Here i was thinking fuck this car is costing me alot. I had to get a new thermostat,clutch,water pump and breaks internallly. I have had to spend out on fixing the paint on the bonnet and wing. Not to mention all the bastars who put dents in it. Glad to know im not the only one in the same sort of boat hahaha.

[@NO-AH562]

Im curious how much this costs in total to do, I am planning on buying a spyder soon and I'd love to do some similar work I just don't know if it's worth it.

[@kasper.kristoffersen]

Im not sure, but its pretty cheap prices on MR2 parts, good luck on your upcoming project!

[@aztlann12nation7]

I got an mr2 roadster
