I have a 1997 JZA80 non turbo 5 speed Supra for sale. The car is in immaculate condition and drives perfect. Even being a non turbo it is still pretty fast, faster than most stock Skylines at Wakefieild Park clocking a 1:15 at a recent track day with an average driver. The car cannot be registered. Ring for more details 0419277774. It comes with standard Supra wheels not the wheels pictured. Asking $12,000. Open to resonable offers need to sell, otherwise will wreck.

The car was stolen and recovered, it was deemed a statutory write off due to major stripping not accidented or damaged. The car has now been put together and is 100% legit but still listed as a write off. If you had some pull with the authorities maybe you could do something, I tried and couldn't. Somebody could do a body swap if they have a major damaged car allready. I have receipts for everything, no funny business.

Talk of doing a body swap (i.e.: rebirth) is hardly legal.

Can not understand why a non-damaged body will be hard to re-register. My mechanic bought a front damaged GTiR, that was written off, has fixed the damaged body, and is about to register it legally. If the car was not structurally damaged what is the issue?

They don't let them get reg'd again so it stops people going out and stealing another car and stripping that to put the origially stripped car back on the road. I was asking a wrecker yesterday about it.

That's exactly right, but if you had a crashed Supra and you showed the authorities both cars before doing anything you would be allowed to rebuild the crashed Supra using the good shell and they would then issue you with a new vin number. It was all too much work for me and I don't have a crashed car nor can I afford to keep it just for racing.''OFFERS CONSIDERED''

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics

      @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?

      Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
