    James' 89 Supra Turbo

    Yes, I'll be rebuilding the transmission. I probably won't do it right away since the motor still needs to be rebuilt. I'll sell the automatic and use those funds towards a nice clutch and lightweight flywheel. This supra will be a 5-speed by the first startup, I can guarantee that. PS I...

    James' 89 Supra Turbo

    Thanks, I guess you just have to be into that sort of thing if you want to pay that much. That car was horrid, I'm glad it's gone. I was upset at first, but the vandalism thing paid off in the end!

    James' 89 Supra Turbo

    Yes, oh, you may have seen my For Sale/Trade ad on Supraforums, I tried to trade for a busted MKIII a couple years ago. One guy came by with an 89, but it was far too much a total pile. A huge part of me didn't want to sell the truck, so I priced it high. It worked out after all, I ended up...

    The 22R-TE is a good little motor, it would be cool swapped into a Celica... Was yours a hatchback? I've always thought an old sunchaser with a 22R-TE would be a fun car! Thanks! Thank you

    Thanks! I worked hard to get my trucks where they are. The supra will join the ranks soon :) Thanks, the luck oughta come in handy. The 87 and the Supra sure make a nice driveway combo. I'm even reluctant to do minor body mods, but the stock front lip is trashed. That got me thinking on a...

    James' 89 Supra Turbo

    I started the day off by stopping at a local paint store, I had them mix me up some Super White touch up paint. I also bought some SEM Trim Black for later. Later on, I replaced the completely defunct battery in the car. I had an extra that just happened to be the right size. Note the...
