![]() Removing the flywheel with the engine full of oil, will not make it leak out of the flywheel bolt holes. The crank shaft is not drilled and tapped right through for the flywheel bolts, they are bilnd holes. Bolts of the same diameter, but made of different materials will have different torque settings. The 2005 MR2 Spyder has a mid-mounted engine for exceptional balance. ![]() That is why the torque setting for a bolts tensile strength and diameter is so important. For a bolt to clamp correctly, a measured amount of strech is required from it. ARP's higher tensile strength allows more spring back than most other bolts which makes them "reusable". The difference with the ARP bolts is the higher tensile strength. The 49Nm setting is there as an indiction of the bolt strech prior to the final tightening of 90 degrees.Īll bolts strech when tightening them, even the ARP bolts. Toyota BGB says that you can reuse the flywheel bolts, but if you can't achieve the correct torque setting of 49Nm, then you should replace them. Tightening sequence will be the same as the OEM toyota bolts except for the final torque setting, and the last 90 degree turn, which will be replaced by the ARP setting. You'll have to ask someone that has them to help you there. Not sure what the torque setting is for those, sorry. Only been once.Didn't know that you were using ARP bolts. Plus the local mr2 club meets every 2nd Sunday I think it is. Like Mclaren Ferrari Classic rod movie car awesome. I find most of the fun in the build and transformation of the car.ģ.5 hours isn't far at all for around here! There is a cars and coffee meet here every sat morning that is usually awesome. Keep the car and get a little pickup, turbo kit, K24a2, or another vehicle. The preorder cost of 50 is used to as a serious show of support and interest in the item. The duckbill, wing, hood vents, and eyelids are optional to getting access to this part. If I didn't like convertibles id yank out the convertible top and frame like some others for sure because I appreciate the weight reduction and clean look the interior then has. Tentatively, this hard top will only be available to customers who have ordered at least the front bumper, side skirts, rear spats and diffuser. I have enjoyed the extra quiet that it brings to the cockpit, plus the feel and look, but I'm used to noisy cars and motorcycles so I'll be ok. ![]() Yes, a 3MZ-FE will fit in a Spyder - with more wires. Yes, a 1MZ-FE will fit in a Spyder - use search for pics. Yes, a 3S-GTE will fit in a Spyder - sorry, no pics. THeyre listed with all the other hardtop pieces. I put a brand new cloth top on the car after I bought it so I see this is an extra IMO since the car still looks great without it. You can order them from the US parts system - expect to pay 50-80 each. I'm getting rid of extras to help me get to that point. The reason I'm selling is because I'm trying to get to a point of decision about the car. The hardtop definitely makes the car and brings it to another level. i see oem hardtops cf/fiberglass by vis and oem toyota by midship garage, but seems. and yes, i have already read through previous hardtop discussions. recently my rear windshield popped out of my soft top, and im sure theres a cheaper solution, but i was planning on getting a hardtop anyways because they look very nice. I don't need to sell so lowballs will be laughed at. hi, new mr2 owner here, also new to the forum i hope this post is ok. There was a guy near me that had a lexan window available. This is perfect for that rare piece on a show quality car or for a racer wanting the ultimate in lightness. I will also include custom hooks to hang the top from when not in use. I really haven't had much to go by, but this is surely the nicest cf top I've ever seen. I could meet you CA guys or girls an hour or so toward you if you didn't feel like coming into Vegas for a night and hanging out. Price- ? I have in mind at least OEM figures so let's just say 2,900 OBO. I will add pics soon, but there are many in my build thread. My car sits inside the garage most every day and seldom sits in the sun. The rear of the headliner has dropped down a bit, but was only held by double sided tape or Velcro. ![]() It has full Toyota OEM interior (headliner, trim, seals etc) and Oem rear window with defroster cable included. I'm thinking of parting with my carbon fiber hardtop.
