Hello all, my names Jeremy. I'm 18, I enjoy long walks on the beach...er..

After many years of wanting a supra, I finally got my chance. A few weeks ago I purchased a 86.5 N/A 5spd. First thing I wanted to know before I bought it was the HG and if it had ever had a BHG. Well to my luck, the guy I got the car from was the second owner and his parents were the original.

The car has about 139k miles on it and never got a BHG. So when he got the car from his father, he replaced the OEM HG with a metal one (brand slips my mind at the moment) and he tightened the HG bolts to the new torque spec.

The car itself is beautiful, interior looks like it was owned by an 80 yr old grandmother, no rips, no tears, no stains. Grey cloth interior.

The exterior has it flaws, but overall it's very nice. There is a rust spot on the drivers fender about the size of a softball and the paint on the hatch looks like someone tried buffing it with sand paper lol.

I paid $1800 for it and whenever I get more money I will hopefully be able to go to the turbo side :love:
