So, this opportunity came up, and for some insane reason I couldn't pass it up. As of this morning, I'm currently the owner of 2 Mk3 Supras.

I'd post the mod list on the new one, but it's longer than my other one, and I'm missing my afternoon nap to keep all you in the loop. So for now, I'll just post some pictures, they're supposed to be worth 1000 words, after all. EACH. From talking to the PO, it sounds as though pretty much anything you can think of has already been repaired, replaced, or, in most cases, upgraded.

So, with that said, on to the pictures.

Thanks for all the kind comments, everyone. Yes, I'm pretty happy with it. And I haven't driven it much yet - it's just going to get better as I get more wheel time. The power level is pretty much ridiculous - it's below freezing up here at the moment, and even with dry pavement, it just spins in any gear.

Correct.

mmm work emotion CR-Kai's :D
Also correct... and some of the ugliest wheels ever made, IMHO. Those will be leaving, and getting replaced with my old Racing Hart Revs.

Nice man,
I love the color of the car *i think its growing on me* and i love that exhaust too.
It's just Toyota Matrix blue... which works for me. I like black better, but blue is a close second. After all, the other Supra I own is also blue.

I've never been the huge 7M forever guy... that's definitely Duane. I've always liked the 2J. I've said negative things about the 1J engine, and the Mk4, and those still hold true today. I'm not fond on an engine that wasn't marketed here, because there are parts that are tough to get. And as for the Mk4, it's too round - I like some hard edges on my cars. Hell, I've said it before, and I likely will again - if I'd found a Mk2 in this kind of shape, I'd take that in an instant. The styling on the Mk2 is simply the best they've ever made.

And you're right, too - driving this is *sweet*. It's *way* nicer in first gear than my 7M is - super smooth, where my 7M punches you in the kidneys every time you try to feather the throttle. Of course, most of that is likely just my setup. :)

Very nice purchase!

I would really like a ride in it next meet..
Sure, hit me up next time you see me, I'll take you out for a spin. Remind me to put some plastic over the seat, I don't want it to get messy.
