    MKIII Supra Build (Project John Doe)

    Thanks man!! Yeah, I like the pre 89 tails...They just didn't seem to fit the look I was going for. Yeah I love the look of the mkiii's with a sunshade, a guy on here (KevinM) does a group buy every so often, pretty reasonably priced too!

    Quick diff. question

    Only the N/A supras came with 4.30 gears. It was an open diff unless you ordered the optional posi unit. The turbos all came with the LSD (posi) rear ends. There were 2 different ones depending on the year, up to 89 used a 3.91 and 89 and up used a 3.73
