The previous owner of my MkII was shit. That's why I parted/junked it. He used synthetic oil, had about 30 lbs of bondo (Seriously) and drove it in rain without a rear window for 2 years. The compression test was horrible, alternator was bad, transmission fluid was THIN like water and BLACK as night. The clutch was slipping, the valves were tapping horribly, leaky exhaust mani, and other misc stupid things..

I found 2 dead rats, and a Toby Keith CD Loged within the power steering rack.

Not to mention the tampon under the rear seat (unopened, but still..)


Previous owner of my MkIII Needs a high five!
Hardly any problems at all, and a very maintained and beautiful car. 1900$

I'm the 10th owner of my car. All of you have probably owned my car a couple times.
Cheap white respray at some point and the last owner did a low budget jdm motor swap. Bought it with a boost leak, not knowing anything about turbo cars. He claimed at the time "its probably just low on transmission fluid"

Well i bought the supra from proto motoring in riverside CA but the car had bad brakes to begin with. That i had to deal with so i replaced all 4 rotors ,brakepads,brake master cylinder.
On my SC 300 the previous owner was the biggest spray can offender because he did to big ass skulls on the hood alod with 2 spray painted granades on the back. The passanger side door panel is fucked up,along with a non working window and the aligment but i will soon take of that

Yes and kinda no. He did torque down the head to 70 ft lbs, but he also was too lazy to change the valve cover gaskets, power steering rack, and when he replaced the hatch struts, he decided to just cut two holes in the interior panels to get to the bolts. It has an immaculate interior though. He didnt take very good care of the paint either, pretty oxidized. But what can you expect from a car with 213k miles on it. Runs and drives amazing though. Im happy.
