Hey we are new to the site...

I just picked up an 89 supra turbo targa.

First Supra for me.. I also own an 1989 Skyline GTR Twin Turbo.


I bought this car as a second car while my Skyline goes in for a widebody conversion.


Always wanted a supra and this was the opportunity i was given to finally own one.!!!


I am very turbo headed so please feel free to ask me questions etc..

I am quite knowledgeable.
