hey supramania,
just wanted to say hi, long time import car guy who has been hardcore AWD (based on crappy chicago weather). i now live in south carolina and got a MKIII supra from my cousin, and am very impressed. i am amazed that a car as old as mine has so many features/power, it must have been a hellraiser in the 80s! my only complaint thus far is the "stiff" setting on TEMS, i wish it was much stiffer...maybe i was spoiled by my EVO.
thanks for letting me be a part of the forum!

^ that's because it looks like yours, except you have the pre'89 nose cone emblem, different rims, and no spoiler. ;)

thanks for all the kind words everyone...the EVO is fast as hell, but i can honestly say that i have more fun in the supra. rainy days are drift fest 2000, and the fact that i could have ten supras like mine for the price of one evo makes me want to never have one again. :)

You'll love being able to work on the supra, AWD and FWD Transverse DSM engines along with evo engines are terrible... so much crap shoved into an "engine bay" they call it... just get some electric fans and cut out that a/c!
