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.:(

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
