A project log for Toyota MR2 Turbo Engine Repair

I blew up my engine, and am going to remove it, take it apart and fix it. Not really a hack, but it is taking things apart and fixing them.

Didn't actually take the hubs off in the end - removed the whole subframe instead

Removed the whole subframe by unbolting the shock top mounts, subframe bolts and control arms

Took the engine out by dropping it on the floor using an engine hoist, then lifting the car body off by the engine mounts, and dragging the engine out from underneath

Began dismantling the engine - need to inspect the crank to find any damaged bearings
