Hey Community, I'm glad to be activated here on SupraMania.com!
First, a little history. In the late 90's and early 2000's I worked for a Toyota dealer in Lansing, MI. I sold Toyota and Lexus along with used cars, and I came from a GM family.
After working for Toyota for a while, it became obvious how different their vehicles were compared to the GM products I had grown up driving. After a few years, I purchased my first 6th Gen Celica, a 94 once totalled, and a little worse for the wear but a great running and driving little car.
Fast forward a few years, I've now had (5) 6th Gen Celica's, including the first one I purchased, and the 99 I currently drive, I've also had a 7th gen, along with a Solara, and a Lexus GS300. So, I've gone through a few. In all this time, I've always wanted, like most, a MK4 Supra. Well, I'm still waiting for one I can afford so in the mean time, I've picked up this beauty.
87 Targa Turbo 5-Speed
Planned order of projects,....
1) Rebuild the engine, I received it in boxes
2) Get it on the road,... whatever do-dad's and what-not's it needs
3) Source a 1JZ or 2JZ
4) Build-up 1JZ/2JZ
5) Buy MK4 Roller
