small update today ..... got my driverside doorhandle and trim bezels from Honestabe today ( they will get put in next week ) ... car was registered yesterday and got it inspected today so it is officially on the road for a grand total of under $600 including price of car !!! It was a beautiful evening so I popped off the targa and loaded up the wifey and pup and went for a little drive to take some pics ....
Rainy thursday update ... to ugly to do anything outside so I pulled the Supra in the garage and dove into my dim tailight no brake light problems .... cleaned the bulb connections to no avail so I did the tail light sensor delete ... presto... bulbs good now , brake lights good !!! Then I decided to put on my new un-broken mirror I got from Shaef and the un-broken driverside doorhandle I got from Honestabe !!
Dallastown huh? I live outside of Glen Rock/go to college in Lancaster. Nice supra, I need to replace my drivers side door handle also (and get it running, but thats a different story)
Great find! Looks like it has every option except for leather! I have never driven a 5speed n/a, just an auto I had for about a year. I bet it's pretty fun!
Makes me miss my targa car

Mine started out that way. Great find/deal beats Honestabes.. His was cheap but non running, yours on the other hand took little effort to get it to the driving having fun part.
On second thought I might not want to be the one to clean the lighting bugs off of it.

An engine builder friend said it's the only thing that he can say for sure that helped with oil consumption in 2 high milage vehicles he's had , and with 202,000 miles on the Supra I figure it can't hurt .... I figured the zinc addative would be extra insurance since the oil companies have reduced the amount of zinc in the oils to almost nothing ... In the musclecar world the recommend it any motor not running a roller cam as the zinc is really the lubrication between the cam lobe and the lifter ....
Got home from vacation today and got to put my new shoes on the Supra .... MB Motoring Competitions in 17x8 +22 with 235x45 Hankook Ventus HR II's

didn't want any issues with rubbing and it being a N/A with 203,000 on it , it ain't like it's making gobs of power ....
I forgot you were N/A. In that case staggered wheels aren't necessary. You won't have issues with rubbing, I don't. Although I did have to roll my rear fenders. With the propper offset you can run a 275 in the rear without any modification. I had to roll my fenders since I could only get a +28 offset. With a +40 offset you won't rub with a 275 in the rear.
