Scantron’s Garage started building a unique Toyota MR2 (SW20) 10 years ago. In that time the sports car has come a long way. In the back behind a custom firewall is a naturally aspirated LSx V8. The motor features upgraded camshaft and valve springs, custom stainless steel exhaust, and low profile oil pan. Behind the motor is a custom adapter bolted to a Porsche six-speed manual transaxle. The MR2 riders on a custom rear subframe, custom lower control arms, Porsche suspension, and Brembo disc brakes. Scantron’s Garage also made a custom rear deck lid, modified hood, custom widebody, and custom door panels.
