Been following this guys build for years, backyard mechanic who builds sick MR2's
http://www.apex-attack.com/

Was dissapointed when he announced he was going to get rid of the 3sgte for a V6, but after hearing this thing, I am happy to admit I was wrong. Sounds incredible, driving starts around 5min mark if you want to skip to the noise.

That video just popped up on my you-tube page :D
Boosted cars are like hot women.
A little edgy, every guy wants one,
some guys can't handle them,
and if you throw a little alcohol in them they'll rock your world.

Hi all, after pulling the 3sgte out of my car for some work ive decided to start documenting the work ill be doing on the engine and the car, as i feel like there is not enough 3sgte specific content out there on Youtube. Check out my channel and video if you want, and let me know what you think! Hit us with a sub if you would be keen to see some more work on my engine :) i was a bit nervous in the video but if i keep it up i might be able to help some people

I have thought of doing the same... But more work and effort I probably can't afford right now :lol:

Hi all! so after the awesome feedback, i got round to making a second episode where i start doing a bit of an engine tear down, pulling a lot of stuff off the engine. This was filmed over the last few days, so apologies if its a bit all over the place. Give it a watch if you want, and let me know what you think of this one :) hopefully it helps some people!

Just uploaded episode 3 where i pull the timing cover and find a bunch of oil leaks, forgive me if there is a bit of mis information in the video, its actually harder than you think to try create constructive communication with an inanimate object such as a camera :lol: let me know what you think!

Have uploaded an episode 4 and an episode 5 for anyone who is wanting to check it out, i do a 3sgte head removal, followed by some ARP headstuds and a new oem headgasket and then reinstall it all back together. In the next video i went and reassembled the components on the block and installed all new gaskets and timing components and got the timing belt put on the engine. All going good so far, i hope to have then engine in on the weekend of the 9th :D
