Hi everyone!
im new to the supra family. i was just wondering ive seen a few people with i guess jdm or euro parts and i wonder how i can go about buying some stuff.
like ive seen those side folding mirrors.
can anyone help me out...
also what are the differences between japan supras and europes supras?
JDM/Euro cars had folding mirrors, except Euros fold manually and JDM's fold at the touch of a button. JDM/Euro cars have different signals than USDM cars, JDM's have a dark amber color and Euro cars have clear parking lights and amber signals. USDM's have an orange color.
JDM/Euro cars also lack the rear side markers of the USDM models, and JDM 89+ taillights are darker than USDM's and all 3 pieces are the same color. Another difference is JDM/Euro cars have protruding "bubble" front markers, while USDM's have flat reflective markers.
Euro Supras also had wings without any 3rd brake lights, but they had rear foglights exclusive to Europe, and had manual climate controls. One thing desired by many LHD Supra owners is the digital dash, however most RHD Supra owners with it actually prefer analog gauges, so it's a case of wanting what you can't have...
Another thing, JDM cars could be had with a 1G-GTE twin turbo 2.0L I6, available without the flared front/rear fenders and special hard ribbed plastic trim, or a 1JZ-GTE twin turbo 2.5L I6, or a special version of the 7MGTE, that used a MAP sensor, bigger throttle body, 1JZ style intercooler and a few other differences in the TurboA (limited to 500, all black with a special front duct)..
hmm, what else what else.
JDM Supras had metal rainguards, and a few other things here and there, I'll try to update my post later..
