Hi all, just bought a new to me 1990 Supra hard top N/A 5spd. 175,000 miles on her, and needs a lot done. Has a BHG and needs a little body work (driver front fender has a couple dings/dents, both bumpers and mirrors need paint). Interior is pretty clean, just need to get new boots for the shifter and e-brake, and a new center arm rest cover but everything else is good. Instrument cluster lights won't turn on, and am currently trying to sort that issue out. Planning to rebuild a 7MGTE and do the swap over the winter. Probably going to run the W58 until I find an R154 locally somewhere. It has the LSD rear end which is nice, but no TEMS suspension. Got big plans for it, want to use it as a DD for the nicer months up here, which is really only May-September. Planning on giving her a bath tomorrow before throwing the car cover on while I collect parts for the build.

I'm also new here and have an 88 targa 5-speed N/A with 151.000 miles. To be frank your car looks a lot better. Welcome to Supramania.

Thanks! I wish mine was a targa, but it was a good price and was close by so I couldn't pass it up. It isn't a bad starting point for a build for sure! Engine build will come first, followed by bodywork/paint/wheels. Excited to get to work on this!

Thanks! That's in the plans, not sure if I want to just do the factory turbo wing or the Shine Auto whale tail, it also looks pretty decent. Getting the engine built and running well will be the first stage, and once that's done I plan to make it look the part too.
