I havent looked at the price of Supra's for over 3 years. When i bought my R32 they were all worth 40k plus, and that would have been a crappy auto

1993 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo

6 Speed, Sports exhaust system, TRD side skirts and rear pods, 18 inch mag wheels, HKS Air filter, Alarm, Stereo, Custom graphics, Tinted windows, 75,000kms

Registered and ready to go

Only $25,990

Damn, i didnt realse they were that cheap. At that sort of money, why are there so many R33s on the road, if i had $25-30,000 to go shopping with i think a Supra looks pretty attractive at that money.

Fair call about the brakes, but the series 1 brakes still arent exactly bad, are they?...its just that the update models brakes are much better.

Apparently they weigh approx 1450kg and have a lazy 208kw (174rwkws with only an exhaust and std boost). They use alloy susp components with factory Bilsteins, so when you say they dont handle...have you driven one, or are you just assuming due to the weight?

Ill have to take your word as to how good they are at the track as i have only seen a bloke in a std auto...

I wish i had enough money and garage space for about 5 cars.:(

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
