    Chance to get MK3 shell for $500

    Yea thats just the thing, it may seem pricey, but out here where I am this is a steal. The guy said to me he'll take 400 if the other guy doesn't come back, so I am awaiting to hear back from him. Its the perfect platform, even though it was an NA car. The only thing bad I could find is a...

    Chance to get MK3 shell for $500

    Well I went and talked to the guy today, I made an offer of 400. There is another guy interested too, so as long as he doesn't offer more then I will get it for 400. He just had the driver mirror painted for $130 dollars. Comes with everything except wiring harness ECU and engine. Even comes...

    Chance to get MK3 shell for $500

    Thanks for all the reply's guys! Helps a lot knowing exactly what I am getting into. Couple things: I stopped my Integra project because it was my third one, and I had a friend who really wanted it. I now drive a stock 92 Integra, and I just finished up boosting my 90 Prelude with built...

    Chance to get MK3 shell for $500

    I thought he said B&M, I must be wrong lol. From most of my searching it looks like the 7MGTE engines are going for about 1000, then I would have to get the turbo tranny and probably rear end. The car is perfect with no rust, I'll check alignment tabs and stuff on the lift at his work...

    Might buy a MkIII

    Hahahha. Well on the site I found the average MPG of a Supra is about 20. My Integra is 23. The integra has a 50L tank compared to the Supra's 70. So I spend more on gas and use it more, meh I think its worth it lol. Yearly the Supra is supposed to cost about 1000 more on gas. I am...

    Might buy a MkIII

    Hmm I knew about the head gasket, he has already replaced it (has been driven once since he did), rod knock didn't know about. He just did a MAJOR overhaul on it, all pulleys replaced, timing belt along with other belts done, coolant change, oil change. I want to pressurize the coolant system...

    Might buy a MkIII

    Looks like i am going to be able to get it for 2800 - 3000, guy was asking 3200, but because I am really good friends with a guy that works with him he's gonna give me a break. That gives me 1500 to spend on the car once I get it lol. I went and stared at it for about 5 minutes today cause it...

    Might buy a MkIII

    NICE so what I am seeing is the LSD was standard in Canada in the 86.5-88 MKIII's? Sweetness, DONUTS lol jk. Another Supra appeared today, baby blueish MKIII, non turbo, looked sexy, but not for sale. Still no up date I am going back and forth with a guy on what he wants to pay for my Integra...

    Might buy a MkIII

    Oh also forgot to ask, did the steering wheel design change from the 1986.5 car to be different in the 1987 + cars, or is it 1986.5 - 1988, 1989-1992. Or are they different based on turbo/non turbo cars. I just ask because I have noticed 2 different steering wheel designs on supra's.

    Might buy a MkIII

    Well thats why I am here, to make sure I get what I want :icon_bigg I forget what this guy said, but he just did $2500 worth of work to it when he bought it (he has a kid and can't drive it now and thats why he has to get rid of it). I know the work is legit because one of my best friends works...

    Might buy a MkIII

    Haha yea it sucks. I have seen 2 other Supra's around town, one brown 1988 (it sold for 4500, and was in way worse condition than this one), and the black RHD thats been around lately. We do have tons of Civic hatchbacks with exhausts louder than hell :nono: theres the odd cool thing, a couple...
