Exclamation MR2 owners

so who owns one? or two... or more!
and a little bit about the cars: 1st or 2nd gen, mods, what you use it for... and anything else you want to add (1/4 times, hp, etc.)

i've got a 1985 mr2 mk1.5
jdm 3sgte with free-flowing 2.5" exhaust, custom downpipe, and lots more... *see other thread
it's my solo/RR car and will probably be my daily next year as well

I currently own a Red 91 NA. I put a little bit of money into it with Greddy exhaust, HKS intake, crossdrilled rotors (Got them cheaper than the stock replacements), TRD short shifter, NKG plug wires and iridium spark plugs, ana a bunch of my own custom stereo mods.

Quarter mile: 16.8
0-60: Slow

The car hadn't been running right since I bought it. Found out recently that the 2nd and 4th cylinder have 35% and up leakage. Probably getting worse everyday. Leaning towards doing engine swap but am unsure of it due to cost, reliability, and state emissions.
