decided to start posting on this site to help fetch any parts I might need for the Supra. I am a member of the UK supra site as well. Alot of helpful people there so I figured there would be alot of them on here too. As in the title, I am a US soldier stationed in Germany. Here is my good and bad luck with the Supra....Got my first Supra (1991 turbo aero top) shortly after getting here and found out that the HG was blown. Decided to tear it down and rebuild the motor. After realizing that me and a few friends and a few cases of beer don't mix together well if you don't know what the hell your doing on these motors. So, we had to order a 7MGTE from Japan. Got it here and it too was fubar. So, we sold the whole lot on ebay.de. Took the money from that to buy my second Supra. An 88 turbo this time. body was so rusted I decided to use it for other then getting back and forth to work means..... After drifting enough in it, the rear diff gave up. Along with the HG. Stripped that one down for spares and laid it to rest in the scrap yard. Then thanks to Rich (Bondy on the UK site) I now have this beautiful RHD MA-70 1989 GT Limited Supra Aero. Here is a list of upgrades on it as of this minute.
Do Luck front bumper, head light conversion (dual round)with xenons, HKS 1.4mm MHG, HKS SSQV, new HKS 550 injectors, Walbro 255 pump, Lexus AFM, Saga boost and rpm gauges, short shifter, JDM GA-70 Digidash (MA70 digi blew on me) Apexi auto timer, generic evc, Voxx MG 17s, Work wheels 17s, KYB shocks, race dynamics lowering springs,88 rotors cross drilled and sloted, ceramic pads all around, black paint with red metal flake, JDM Bomex rear add ons.
Already got a trophy in one of the car shows I went to, and it was in Banzai magazine in 06. I will post a few pics this weekend.

First off, thanks for being in the armed forces... and secondly, very nice looking Supra. Welcome to the forums. I really like those rims. Good choice.

Those rims are not with the car anymore. The guy I got it from kept them for his. I now have two different sets for it. 17" Voxx MG, and a set of 17" but wide as all hell Work wheels which will be getting a good refurb when I get home to the US.

Welcome to my domain ;)

PS: Still got that adaptor??
Just like I told you on the UK forum, I sent that thing months ago. If I remember right it was like 2 days after you gave me your address. I am not that worried about it since I still have the one for the GT and you didn't pay for it so....
