Hello everyone! My name is No Mercy / Dre. I just got ahold of my very first toyota supra. 1990 turbo. Anyways its a kinda fun story how I got it so I hope you enjoy and I look forward to learning what I can and getting advice on my build plans from all of you when I post them in the future. When I was 15 years old I bought a 1987 ford mustang gt. It was a rust bucket and eventaully by the time i was 16 i had it bored and stroked 347 750 holly carb bbk shory eql off rd h pipe e303 cam msd ig ect ect ect. During this time, my next door neighbor and best friend (he was 16 at the time) got a 1990 turbo supra. All we did was race everyday. We learned to drift together and highway race we had a blast. He never did any work to his car he kept it stock he wasnt as interested in the techs as much as i was. Anywas over the past 10 years ive gone thru many more donestic muscles - 85 gt after the 87, 99 gt vert, 04 mach 1 runnin high 11's and pegged out speedo 150 at 7200 in 4th gear who know how fast ive blown past cops on the tollways over here in 5th. Also riht now i own a 72 thunderbird 429 bb 7.0 ltr many upgrades but u import owners dont care bout all that im sure :)) moving on ive talked smack about ever lil rice cracker jack cereal box car u can think of...except the toyota supra. Ive always loved it cuz it was my best friebds first car and i grew up racing it. Anywas 10 years later my best friend has been goin thru a rough spot and i let him stay in my house and let em bumm off me for past 2 years. He had given his supra to his younger bro who eventually gave it to their father after gettin a new car over the years. Well my. 72 bird is under construction and was my dd and so my best friends dad said hey, since uve been helping my son and supporting him and need a car why dont u take this old supra we havnt driven it in a year we all have new cars...im like really??? Awesome. So ive always loved this model supra but i didnt just get the model i like..i actually got the very same car i fell in love with while growin up. Well i got it for free. So far i have 806$ into the car including cost ( free :)) tax and title transfer inspection new rotors pads bleed flush tranny service oil change radiator flush and a car wash. Lol. Anyways all my motors have been na and ive considered supercharching or blowing some of em but never rlly had.money or time so never really learned bout the stuff. My bro is a ford.mechanic im more of a poser mechanic who cares more about driving the car :) anyways im so excited to have this car i kno every problem and repait its ever had. Motor was rebuilt about 10k ago but car stopped working so his dad bought a new car n let it sit. It ended up bein a csp se sensor o ring and i got that replaced and it runs great. I cant believe how much pull this lil tiny 3.0 has stock its hilarious in rlly excited to begin a build. Well sorry for the life story but i hope u enjoyed it and im happy to be proud owner of a rwd turbo japanese muscle car :) ps im posting this from my smartphone sorry for gram errors im not a dumbxxx just got a tiny keyboard :)

Ya, here's a few pics of it. I got alot of plans for it and since I just bought my wife an 09 jeep wrangler I talked her into giving me a pretty decent budget to drop into it. Been busy doin research on these motors an turbos ect before I start though. Alot of useful info on this forum so far and i've barely scratched the surface :p
