Just wanted to say hello to everyone on here. I've been browsing and have seen some very nice MK3's on here.
I'm Neil, I'm currently driving a RB20DET Swapped 240sx. I love the car, but it's time to move on. So it's for sale. if it sells, the next purchase will be a mk3 supra. Until I get one I'll probably just keep lurking on here :)
For those unfamiliar with the rb20, it's the rb26 little, little brother. 2.0 liter, single (small)turbo strait six, it came in the 1990-93 skyline gts-t or gts-4 (4wheel drive) It's kinda gutless when it comes to torque, but it's got a 8k redline and pushes along a lighter 240sx just fine once the turbo spools.
pics!

How much heavier are MKIII's? 240's weigh in around 2800-3000lbs

Yes I drive this on the street. I drove it to Oregon last week (6 hour drive each way) :biglaugh: I could go on but I drive this everywhere.

PS: and yes I have wasted a few Vipers and with less hp. ;)

Welcome again

red88soup, i'm asking 11,500 for the car, but i'm pretty flexible on the price. There is a ton of other stuff done to the car other than the engine swap. Shoot me an email and i can give you the lowdown on it.

on the subject of weight, how much does the targa top weigh in at? I know removing it isn't effective weight reduction due to the chassis bracing needed for it, just curious. is taking it out a one man job?

Duane, your Supra is around 3400 lb after the weight reduction you've done, right?

Somewhere isn that range but I need to add more cage to mine this year. (or until I get kicked off track:)) I still have full interior though..well minus rear seats (15lbs) I will weigh it this Friday since I am heading to track then :biglaugh:
