Hi, my name is (sup)Rick. I have an 86.5 Supra hardtop, 5 speed, NA. It's white w burgundy cloth interior in good shape. I've owned the car for about two years. I paid $900 for the car with 189K miles from a friend.
Although it is not a daily driver, it IS a driver. The body is far from perfect, but not too bad really. Some rust under the door moldings, a little around the fender wells. It has 201K on original engine and runs very well. Of course, it uses/leaks oil but performs quite well considering all the wear.
In preparation for a rebuilt N/A, the intake has been ported and polished, exess bagage stripped except A/C, replaced open 4.30 diff w 3.9 LSD, aftermarket exhaust manifold and 2.5" from header to stock muffler. Also added KYB shocks, modified cold air intake and added K&N cone filter. New plugs and plug wires, ebay strut bar.
Going to R&R engine, maybe this summer, hopefully by fall. Since the engine that is going to be installed in currently a turbo motor, I will have a T/NA conversion coming up. I prefer to just call it.... TNA :sarcasm:
I have read and understand the whole "behavior on the forum" thing. This is SO much like being in school. j/k. The U= video instruction was WAY helpful. :sarcasm::biglaugh:
Live in SW Ohio, really enjoy seeing Supras. Props to one of my friends who has done all of the work on my Supra. Without that, I'd not be having nearly as much fun for the dollars spent.
