1987 Mr2 with gen 4 3SGTE
1987 Toyota MR2
Due to changes in my life I am selling my 1987 Mk1.5 mr2. I have done an engine swap using a generation 4 3sgte. Please see below for links to the parts list I used to perform the swap and for a list of known issues. Engine runs very well and needs nothing to drive around with.https://1drv.ms/x/s!AqlahEJ05a9IuFst9GuOCT6vPTMI
Issues:
1. T-tops leak (drivers side only while moving, passenger side when it rains heavily)2. Speedometer hasn't worked since swap3. Rear tires are worn from bad alignment. Needs alignment and tires (back ordered till march)4. Windshield washer and rear defroster do not work5. Heater controls are unlinked from control valve and blend door (Heat works but the appropriate items need to be moved manually to turn heat on and off).6. Paint is in bad shape.7. Passenger side floor pan needs a repair in the foot well (small hole around 2 inches).

In the interest of full disclosure there is one other issue known with the car but did not come up often enough to remember at the time of listing.
Transmission will sometimes come out of reverse if you aggressively back it up. Not sure if it's a linkage issue or an issue with reverse itself.
