TRD Supra

[jessetooslow]

I live in RI, lately I've been seeing a girl driving a MK3 Supra just like mine, same color, but hers is lowered with exhaust and what not. I did happen to notice a TRD emblem on the back where the turbo emblem would go, did they build a TRD supra, how would I know if it is real, sounded real nice.

Nope.

yeah i was just doin some searching and it doesn't look like toyota made a TRD mkiii. closest thing would be the turbo A it looks like

only 500 made and america didnt get so no need to worry about seeing it.

 

[cartel1_950]

and isn't the turbo A a right hand drive? don't you guys have a bitch of a time getting those things street legal!! and the only 500 ever made kind of limits the chance of spotting one

Florida's *suppost* to be easier to get a RHD car registered...

florida doesnt really give a shit about anything as far as car modding and such theres some importing companys in miami but knowing miami half the good shit prolly gets ripped off the cars and they get driven hard before you ever see them.


just gotta keep the noise down because old people are sleeping :biglaugh:

Side note: there are less 91-92 Supras in Canada than there are Turbo A's.

 

[starscream5000]

In the world I assume? Because if you are talking about in Canada also with the Turbo A's, then I'm going up there to snag one!

 

[Jeff Lange]

There are 500 Turbo A's worldwide, and about 200 91-92's in Canada.

TRD did not build anything ever. They did however modify factory cars, including the MA70 Supra.

That was 20 years ago, and I doubt this person has one. It was an $8600 upgrade.

in japan they had the *3000 gt* trd widebody supra (93-98) and *2000 gt* widebody mr-2, at least it was in a trd catalog i had from japan in the late 90's i seem to have misplaced

then again i dont know if that still counts

TRD Supra test drive from 1987. The magazine is still in very good condition.

Awesome article man! I can't believe you still have that thing. New information on the Supra is rare but you pulled through for us! It seems that some of the scans did not go through completely though. Could you try to redo them? Thanks man!

 

[boogum7]

nice read. the guy writing the article didnt seem to be very enthusiatic about the supra towards the end of it.

 

[Nick M]

That is all the pages. What you are seeing is a double over of the page. Meaning one page, plus part of the other side. It is all there.

I have many old articles and magazines.

 

[cartel1_950]

guess there was a TRD supra. maybe a JDM only option??

Looks like a LHD car to me...
