I remember ordering some JZ parts way back when.

"I need a serpentine belt for a 94 Supra Twin Turbo."

The guy literally jumped across the counter to look out the window.

"Relax, I just have the motor"

He looked so dissappointed when he saw the MKIII.

Had a guy at my work ask if the Supra in the parking lot was mine the other day. Said he used to have an 88 na. He stood around and asked questions about the car for an hour while I was working on his Saab.

if i go ask a auto parts store for anything i usually get told dealer only. ive had random people comment on my car at petrol stations (where you guys buy gas) usually ohh dad tht looks fast etc

i do have this dude in a local night club who tells any girl within earshot thati own a toyota supra and how great they are though. its kinda amusing

Good to hear that that thing is still holding up.

I can't wait till I get my chance to tell these stories.

Trying owning a MKIV. That is one of the downfalls of owning one. All the retarded people staring and taking pictures while I'm driving and constantly coming up to me. It really sucks when I tell them it's N/A. But, I usually just say "it is....for now". Soon enough though.

any way the wind blows
I was sitting at a light at an intersection while some lady and her kids were crossing.
This little girl on her tiny bike makes way to the other side and I hear her tell her mom that when she grows up she's, "Going to get that red car over there. "

Then I saw a white, blue-striped 3rd gen+ Viper zoom by.

Yee.

okay, I live in a small town (15,000 people), the biggest population around me is like 50K in Corvallis.. My car doesnt even need to be anywhere near me.. I get really strange, creepy or goofy looking people screaming "OH MY GOD! YOUR THE GIRL WITH THE SUPRAS AND THE ECLIPSE"... Its scary as hell sometimes.. Especially when you're going through your person rolladex in your head and you know you've never met that person before.. I'm an urban legend here.. I never drive my cars at night that often because I'm stalked for miles, people try to take pictures with their camera phone while driving, or they pull into the places I pull into...Its really creepy sometimes...Especially when you have to drive around for like 10-15 miles because you're afraid to go home and there is this car following you.. Thats my only gripe with having the Supra around here

Yeah that one. i didn't know you wrecked it. lol.


I've had moments where I tell people that I'm building a Supra. They ask what year it is and I tell'em that it's a 1JZ '91 and all I get are crickets then they change the topic. *shrug*
