EP8 Project Lotus Hunter: Review of my Toyota Mr2 Spyder 1ZZ in its current spec (Pre 2ZZ Swap) 2020

[@HanshinImports]

Can't wait to see the 2zz in the car!

[@JesseSpec]

Me too!

[@richd2744]

Good rim choice. Been wanting to see the new TC105X 15's start showing up.

[@JesseSpec]

Thanks man! They are the best wheels I have ever owned 😍😍😍👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@marciosilva89]

I know where I will be taking my S2000 this year 😁 Really like tho kind of roads.

[@JesseSpec]

Hell yeah!

[@mr2garage]

Beautiful road! I love driving mine around mountain roads too even though 1zz is weak. Subbed to see your 2zz build.

[@JesseSpec]

Hi man! Thank you very much! I agree about the mountain roads! Where are you from? Which mountain roads do you drive?

[@mr2garage]

@@JesseSpec I'm in California and there are many mountain roads, like Hwy 74, SB Mountains and many others. The twisty roads are a lot of fun in this car!

[@JesseSpec]

@@mr2garage I am half Amercian and I really hope that one day I can go for a very spirited drive in the Canyons in the Mother Land hahaha!

[@MrYusuf989]

Cool car! I really like the big spoiler look, where did you get it from?

[@JesseSpec]

Thanks man!? Its a DMAX Japan GT Wing. I might even have one in stock still

[@MrYusuf989]

@@JesseSpec is the highest point of the spoiler lower than the highest point of the hardtop? Our cops also dont like it if it higher than the car thats why im asking :D. Can't really tell from the picture. If the spoiler is lower, i'd be interested in one, whats the price shipped to belgium?

[@JesseSpec]

@@MrYusuf989 hi! I think on my instagram I have more photos. @jesse_yaroo we can discuss there. I think the spoiler is roughly 250euros 😊👍🏼

[@NoSleepRacing]

Great video. Not hate at all just wanted to let you know you wanna check level between scales incase the elevation between them is different that would effect the balance

[@JesseSpec]

No worries, thanks for the comment, I am well aware of this 😉. Especially for measuring corner balance. For the moment this hasn’t been done yet. It was just to check the total weight of the car 👍🏼

[@NoSleepRacing]

@@JesseSpec totally subbed

[@JesseSpec]

@@NoSleepRacing subbed right back! Thanks buddy

[@izanamimedia5697]

Sacré boulot que tu as fais Jesse 😃

[@JesseSpec]

Hahah merci amigo 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@watchere]

those supra decals

[@JesseSpec]

Hahahaha 😁! The previous owner had put them on the car and I am just too lazy to remove them 😂

[@pedroramos4718]

The car even with just the 1zz looks very fun to drive (gonna be perfect with the 2zz)I have two questions if you can help me, the harness is jll safe to install without one harness bar?And it is safe to use without the hans device? Thanks and congrats for the videos BTW this roads are very nice

[@JesseSpec]

Hi, the harness in my car is installed to the rollcage's harness bar so its all good. If in your car you haven't a harness bar, make sure to insure that the harness shoulder straps have to be in the right angle (mentioned in the installation documents usually) and some require that the rear straps cross-over. Also if you can, get a hans device, its always safer. For the moment I haven't bought a hans myself.

[@pedroramos4718]

@@JesseSpec thanks for the help :) and good luck with the swap :)

Bonsoir =D La lame avant provient de TTE. Les bas de caisse proviennent de TRC-Tuning (Allemagne).

[@JesseSpec]

Merci pour le commentaire 😁😁👍🏼 j’ai appris quelque chose. Tout ce que je savais c’est que c’est homologué pour la route en Suisse 🇨🇭

[@novocanal6916]

Can you show more details about how you secured the driver's seat?

[@JesseSpec]

Hi, thanks for your comment. its a pretty tight fit and unless removing the seat, I am afraid it will be difficult to show you any more details...

[@v4847]

I went from a 1zz to 2zz (Celica) along with DDPR intake, PPE header, and borla exhaust. 114whp->200whp. No tune.

[@JesseSpec]

Those are big figures. 200whp is 240bhp, sounds like a lot to me but who knows 😂🤷🏻

[@v4847]

@@JesseSpec I'll send the dynos to you and I have the part sheet. 2zz has +40hp over the 1zz and with stock intake manifold restriction fixed, there is more power to be had. I do not know how the exhaust setup added (if any). A 2zz will really make your car come alive. Before you swap check out DDPR channel.🙂

[@JesseSpec]

@@v4847 i already had a 2zz swap done last year. I liked it but it broke, as you can see on my videos. So I moved on to a k20a that I mostly finished. I made 20+ episodes on the 2zz swap. Loved doing it, but reliability was phenomenal for my use

[@v4847]

@@JesseSpec Sorry I did not see the change had already occurred. Now I can enjoy 20 episodes in the near future! K20 is a great engine, newer and bigger.

[@JesseSpec]

@@v4847 Hi! Thanks for the comment! I will be looking at your graphs shortly. That intake manifold must be phoenomenal to make power gains of the sort.

[@electricrock1029]

Corner weight video would be great

[@JesseSpec]

Thanks man! I will be doing one in the future for sure

[@retrofittuning]

Nice car❤

[@JesseSpec]

Thanks man! Have a good day 🔥👌🏼

[@mariozazzarino2814]

Please 're tutorial for corner balancing

[@JesseSpec]

Thanks for your comment! There will be definitely be an episode about this 😊👍🏼

[@PaddyMcQueen]

Swap it with a K20A !!!

[@JesseSpec]

I gotta finish the 2zz swap first hahahah! But who knows in the future?

[@riehandschin-tsunematsu3552]

👍👍✨

[@JesseSpec]

Thanks ;-)

[@zealouz1988]

is that an oem hardtop?

[@JesseSpec]

Yes sir! 👍🏼

[@damicothebest]

Explain why cops don’t like big spoilers wtf is wrong with them?

[@JesseSpec]

Hahahah! Welcome to Switzerland and Europe... they really hate these big spoilers because they think it might hurt the person even more once you bump and hit them with your car(get stuck in the spoiler... 😂😂🤷🏻)

[@nathanlee3605]

What rear wing did you get?
