Haha, I am buying it cause it was a customers car and they didnt want to pay... so instead he handed me a title with all the paper work signed. I am buying it from my boss for what its worth in scrap metal maybe a little more. $650. It needs a fuel pump, water pump and some elbow grease... I am splitting all cost with a friend and then we will flip it. It has a rebuilt motor but has been off the road for a few years. I hate the things but as long as someone is willing to buy it I will buy it first to flip and put the extra money towards a transmission. I took some pics and will post them soon... Dont worry, the only reason i have this is to make the process of building my firebird quicker. |

Depends on the mileage. Has the headgasket ever been done on it? Rust? |

128k miles on body 0 miles on a new engine... I was told the transmission has been rebuilt before, but i cant gurantee it. The headgasket is brand new and i was told it is the good metal one to handle the boost... Not much rust at all, some but nothing major no rot... |

Its not only about it being a metal gasket, is it torqued properly? These 7M motors used to blow headgaskets left and right. They left Toyota under torqued. But assuming it was rebuilt, they must have torqued it to the proper spec. You should see about $1500-2500 depending. I really wanna drive this thing when you put it together. Let me know. When it's done let me know, I'll pass the word around to my import buddies. |

I was hoping more for 3k... that is what kelly blue book is. I was looking on ebay and saw some with higher body mileage going for over 4k... thats just crazy and people were bidding on them! I was gunna advertise on DPA where alot of ricers hang out and also at the high schools near me since thats what alot of ppl want in h.s... And how could an engine be un torqued?? espically something like a headgasket? |

Well did those cars have mods? What were the years? The 89-92 Supras tend to go much higher cause of the options they had. Toyota had the torque spec around 60 ft lbs. They should've been around 80ftlbs. Give or take a few ft lbs. I don't remember it off the top of my head. |

This forum would not be any fun if it were not for all the BS. But in the interest of keeping on topic, whats the 0-60 on a supra like that? |
