Hey guys, my name is David, while I'm not really new to working on cars but this will be my first supra. I have spent the last couple of days mulling over the swaps located in this forum and really liked the quality of the information relayed. I hope you guys will be leniant when I ask a weird questions.

Oh, I almost forgot. I haven't got it yet but I'm looking at a 88 mk3. It's a targa top 7mgte with the w58 5sp. I am looking at a long term project starting with a 2jzgtte swap. All in all it looks fun and rewarding.

Alright guys i finally have it. I lost the manual but ended up finding an auto car for 1200 with a blown head gasket. It's in great shape considering its age and came with an extra turbo. My feelings on the car have swayed a little bit after fighting this long for it (and let me tell you getting it was like pulling teeth) ill have some pics up in the next few days. I'm looking at restoring it to almost showroom quality going through the interior and repainting the exterior. As of this moment I'm thinking of upgrading a few components in the engine and turbo system but for the most part not straying to far from the beaten path. After finally sitting in the car I feel this would be happiest as my Sunday cruiser. I'll be looking into the limits of the transmission but 350 HP should do fine for the most part
